Lakshya Digital Addresses Gender Gap in India's Gaming
Imagine a world where everyone has a fair chance to work in video games.
Right now, even though almost half the people playing games in India are women, not many women are making the games.
Lakshya Digital, a company, is trying to fix this.
They're creating programs to teach women how to make games.
They're also building special training places, like a tech lab, to help students learn.
Plus, they're helping women get jobs in the gaming industry, giving them the skills and confidence they need.
Their goal is to see more women shaping the games everyone plays and make the industry more inclusive.
Lakshya Digital aims to address gender disparity in India's gaming industry.
Women make up 44% of gamers but only 12-14% in game development.
Lakshya Digital has launched in-house training programs.
A tech lab has been established at a women's college in Hyderabad.
Lakshya Digital partners with industry events to foster inclusivity.
