Impact Day 2025 by Many Cats Studios
What is Impact Day?
Impact Day is a digital mini-conference delivered as part of the Impact Campaign by Many Cats Studios CIC.
Hosted during Disability Pride 2025, this one-day conference brings together disabled and neurodivergent professionals to talk about their role, career or progression in the games industry.
The conference is pre-recorded, streamed in the Many Cats Studios CIC community Discord and with opportunities to network and discuss the talks with the community.
Who should come to this mini-conference?
You're a disabled and/or neurodivergent person wanting to get into the games industry, but want to know more about what kind of careers disabled people can have.
You're disabled and/or neurodivergent, work in the games industry but struggle to see representation that reflects you.
You're non-disabled and an ally, wanting to learn from other professionals who happen to be disabled and/or neurodivergent.
