I am very happy to see Ashley Smith move into the Studio manager role at Ubisoft Winnipeg! Ashley is one of the first people I hired when we opened the Winnipeg studio more than 5 years ago and it's great to see such an inspiring leader rise up! Congratulations Ashley!

THIS IS IT! THE FINAL WEEK!! 🚴♂️🚴♂️🚴♂️ What better day than World Bicycle Day to hit my fundraising goal! https://lnkd.in/g5MShJkz The Princess Margaret Hospital Ride to Cure Cancer is in less than one week. Training is on big time! Last weekend I did a 65km training ride, now just a couple of small rides during the week to stay sharp and then it begins Saturday morning at 7:30am for a 100km ride from Toronto to Hamilton, then 120km from Hamilton to Niagara Falls. PLEASE support me in this great cause to further cancer research! I'm just $1000 short of my fundraising goal for this year!

Proud and excited to share that Ubisoft Toronto is joining the development of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time remake! The game holds a special place for many of us at our studio, and I still remember how much fun I had playing the original with its breakthrough feature that lets you rewind time. We’re looking forward to rewinding time ourselves, and bringing our updated tech, expertise and creativity to modernize this classic game with our partners at Ubisoft Montréal. ❤️

Only two weeks left until the Princess Margaret Ride to Conquer Canada! 🚴♂️🚴♂️🚴♂️ I've been training hard. I've nearly been hit by 2 cars, 1 pickup truck, and 2 cyclists in the past month but all totally worth it!!! 😂 Please support my ride and life-saving cancer research: https://lnkd.in/g5MShJkz A huge THANK YOU to those who have already donated! 🙏

Today more than ever I want to recognize our employees for their hard work, dedication, and inclusive approach to making great games. You bring our games to life and the wonderful experiences behind them. I’m here to thank you, support you and stand up for you along with my Canadian colleagues Nathalie Bouchard, MBA, CRHA (elle/she/her), Jimmy Boulianne, Nathalie Jasmin, Ashley Smith and Christophe Derennes.   Ubisoft Toronto

Last week, I had great discussions with representatives of our studio’s ERGs that left me inspired! These are good people working hard to make a difference in the video games industry.   Am very proud of the meaningful impact our studio’s ERGs are creating through breaking down barriers, raising cultural awareness and building a more inclusive workplace and games!

I've joined the Princess Margaret Ride to Conquer Cancer and committed to raise $2500 to support cancer research. I haven't ridden a bike in 20 years but I'm whipping myself into shape for this important cause. The ride is 200km from Toronto to Niagara, which is like 10 times further than I've managed to ride so far. 😆 Please, if you have the means, help me make a difference for life-saving cancer research! https://lnkd.in/g5MShJkz

I’m participating in the 2024 Ride to Conquer Cancer to raise money for life-saving cancer research at The Princess Margaret. Please sponsor me and help make a difference. Together, with your support, we can Conquer Cancer!

Last week, we were thrilled to celebrate all of our finalists at the Ubisoft Toronto NEXT and Develop at Ubisoft award ceremony. We’re proud to foster the next generation of talent through these programs. Over the past 11 years, we’ve seen many passionate and talented people develop from interns to industry professionals, building their careers while working on some of our biggest games right here in Toronto. Congratulations to all NEXT and Develop at Ubisoft finalists and a very warm welcome to the 9 winners that are joining our team! I look forward to seeing you at our studio.
