We are incredibly honoured to be recognized as one of Canada’s Best Places to Work by the GamesIndustry.Biz, and accept the Health and Wellbeing Award on behalf of our organization. The pressures and anxieties of a pandemic mixed with the stress of redefining ways of work, have impacted everyone's mental health in varying degrees. We committed ourselves very early on to make sure we were actively addressing these, not passively, and always evolving our approach to make sure employee happiness was of paramount importance. This award is very near and dear to our hearts, and we are so grateful to be able to take care of our Hippos both personally and professionally. Thank you GamesIndustry.biz for this recognition - it means the world to us. #GIbestplaces #mentalhealth #thankyou

A heartfelt thank you to the Ministry of Jobs, Economic Development, and Innovation (JEDI) in BC for the nomination, and to Business in Vancouver for this meaningful recognition!
The It was a great honour and joy to represent Hyper Hippo Entertainment at last week's BC Export Award ceremony, where we were celebrated in Digital Media & Entertainment. This distinction reflects our unwavering dedication to engaging, uniting, and inspiring a worldwide audience. We are deeply grateful to a multitude of individuals for their invaluable contributions. At the forefront, our thanks go to the Minister of State and Trade, the Honourable Jagrup Brar, and the Minister of Jobs, Economic Development, and Innovation (JEDI) in BC, the Honourable Brenda Bailey, as well as their team, especially the exceptional Karen Lam. Our heartfelt thanks also extend to Business in Vancouver, especially Kirk LaPointe and Ally R. Potel, Manny “Marketing Manny” Kang and the Glacier Media team, for recognizing our efforts. Our path has been greatly influenced and enhanced by the wisdom and guidance of numerous advisors over the past few years. This includes the support from the Business Scale-Up & Productivity program and the dedicated team at PacifiCan, notably Rona Li and Jonathan Miodowski. We also acknowledge the significant roles played by Global Affairs Canada, particularly Cameron Jelinski and Michael Dodd, and Trade & Invest British Columbia, with special recognition to Rhoda Campbell. A special mention is due to Loc Dao and his team at DigiBC, Carollynn Schafer and team at Accelerate Okanagan, Carolyn Erwood, 🎮 Scott Prather, and Amber Piché from Export Navigator, for their invaluable support and collaboration. The export of digital IP is a true team effort! My immense gratitude goes to Olga Petrova for her exceptional translation management, to Luis Izquierdo for his detailed LQA, and to Nisha Muthreja for her global marketing efforts. Aislinn McDivitt deserves special recognition for her competitive analysis and insights that push us into new markets. Heartfelt thanks to Macarena Cáceres, Sean Torjman, and Nikita Bathla for spearheading our UA efforts and Wesley Favro for AdMon. Our extraordinary LiveOps and Player Support Teams, particularly Jean-Philippe Dupont, who have shown unwavering commitment to our global player base. Thanks to Simon Moss for always being one step ahead of the game and to Sean W. for creating the dashboards that help us measure our achievements. It would be remiss of me not to mention our executive leadership team, with a special callout to Allison Francis CPA, CA for her unwavering support and diligence, particularly in handling numerous essential efforts on our behalf. #BCExportAwards #GlobalTrade #BCEconomy
