We've invited Joe Palin (Founder and Head of Studios), Victoria Sinikliyski (Principal Studio Recruiter) and Tom Pelini (Studio Recruitment Director) from Studiotypes, the games industry’s premier talent partners, to join our webinar and share their expertise on crafting a great games portfolio.

They source high level candidates for gaming studios around the world, and are changing the way the industry thinks about talent procurement.
