About the AIAS Foundation
The AIAS Foundation is a 501(c)(3) and participation in this race will help us continue to fund our many projects aimed at helping develop a new generation of game makers.  

 

Scholarships
We provide tuition assistance to students pursuing careers in game development. These students are provided a year-long mentorship as well as an opportunity to attend DICE Summit – travel included. We also match early-career, underrepresented game developers with mentors and provide travel stipends to attend industry events of their choice.
Mentoring
Our mentor program pairs students and early-career game developers with established professionals in a year-long mentorship program. The mentees are also given an opportunity to attend DICE Summit – including travel costs.
Amplifying New Voices
The Foundation hosts an annual workshop that provides professional training to early to mid-career, underrepresented game developers. A travel stipend and complimentary GDC pass are provided. The goal is to create the next generation of games spokespeople.
WomenIn
This program provides scholarships, mentorships, and educational opportunities for individuals interested in promoting women in gaming.
