It has been a very long and arduous road, but WIGI has finally incorporated as an independent non-profit organization serving the video game industry. We have one hurdle to go–we need to file our 1023 within the next 18 months, so there still is work to be done.

However, this hurdle enables me to renew my efforts with other aspects of Women in Games. We plan a “reboot” of the organization for 2010 with new events, programs and especially, new blood! We’ve got lots of new volunteers with great ideas and contacts.

We’re going to need a lot more help in the coming months, so stayed tuned to the WIGI Linkedin group for updates. But for now, we’re accepting any and all submissions for our re-defining WIGI process.

You’re assignment: Use the acronym “WIGI” to come up with your own meaning, hopefully somewhat related to Women in Games International’s role in the video game industry. However, this is the game industry, and we love fun, play and a sense of humor.

Email your ideas directly to me, post them as comments to this blog post, or post them to the WIGI Linkedin group.

So far I’ve got “Working In Games Incessantly,” but I think we can do a lot better than that!

Thanks in advance for your help!
