Our Advisory Board

Dear readers,

It has been a very busy couple of months and thigns are going well. I will be writing lots of updates over the next few months, and wanted to start with our Advisory Board, who they are and what their role is within the overall plan for Climate Challenge 2010.

Our Advisory Board is:
• Professor Diana Liverman: Director of the Environmental Change Institute (ECI) and a member of the National Academy of Sciences committee on Americas Climate Choices
• Dr Cameron Hepburn: A leading environmental economist.
• John Kroeger: Former co-head of the UK Government team of Business Relations Managers to the Computer Games Industry.
• Suzanne Seggerman: President of Games For Change.
• Dr Pamela Hartigan: Director of the Skoll Centre for Social Entrepreneurship at Oxford University’s Said Business School

Full biographies for each of the Advisory Board can be found below:

Each member has been very carefully selected to bring unique skills, experience and contacts to the company and all have been important in helping Red Redemption achieve our objectives for Climate Challenge 2010.

Why is this important?
There are four main reasons:
1. Credibility: The credibility of the game and the team is important to ensure the game reaches more people in the market. Our Advisory Board helps build credibility for the game and team.
2. Marketing: Further press and marketing opportunities open up for us through our mutual association.
3. Advice: We benefit from their advice about the game.
4. Thanks: The people we have involved in our advisory board have been extremely supportive and helpful over the last few years and we want to recognise that.

Best,
Gobion
