Girls' Day 2024: Make a career in the games industry

Report from March 25, 2024: With the nationwide day of action Girls' Day (this time on April 25th) the aim is to motivate girls and young women to take up careers in more male-dominated industries – be it in IT, research, crafts or in the games industry. Ministries, universities, corporations and startups have been supporting the format for years.

In 2024, well-known computer game manufacturers and trainers across Germany will again be taking part in this campaign – although not to the same extent as in previous years. This time, among others, Goodgame Studios, Crytek, Wooga, HandyGames and Electronic Arts are 'missing'. However, the Ubisoft studio in Berlin is there (where, among other things Rainbow Six Siege is being worked on), King Art Games in Bremen and Kalypso Media (Tropico, Commandos) in Worms, Rhineland-Palatinate.

Danger: Places are often very limited in order to provide the participants with the most intensive support possible – so anyone who is interested in a particular format should register quickly. Many contingents are already fully booked, and in some cases there are long waiting lists. By ,Radar' The offers can be narrowed down to companies, industries and age groups close to home.

Boys' Day also takes place at the same time as Girls' Day – with the opposite sign. In this case, for example, it's about careers in social professions.
