Katya Sabirova, the Head of Communications at Values Value & InGame Job, addresses the persistent issue of the gender pay gap within the games industry. Despite ongoing discussions about diversity and equity, the annual gender pay gap remains a significant concern, especially at C-level positions.
Katya highlights research findings from the Values Value and InGameJob teams, emphasizing that the problem is not solely due to employers paying women less; it also involves women themselves requesting lower desired salaries compared to men. The presentation aims to delve deeper into these issues, shedding light on the complexities surrounding gender pay disparities in the gaming sector.
Katya had a talk at the Women in Tech®Cyprus meeting in October 2023.
