At Tencent, we believe in the power of giving back. 🌟 Our Giving for Good initiative, held every September, emerged from 99 Giving Day one of the world’s largest public charity campaigns. As we celebrate the 10th anniversary of this meaningful event, we are proud to highlight the outstanding contributions made by our Tencent Americas teams. This year, our Palo Alto team supported Abilitypath, purchasing products created by neurodiverse artists and volunteering at a local food bank. In Los Angeles and Irvine, our volunteers packed patient kits for chronically ill children through the Starlight Patient Activity Kit program. Additionally, we organized food donation bins to support local food banks, held a virtual blood drive with the American Red Cross, and hosted a silent auction fundraiser for Feeding America and Food Banks Canada. We extend our heartfelt thanks to all our team members for their dedication and contributions to our communities. 💙

We were thrilled to join iconic leaders and emerging influencers at FT’s Business of Entertainment Summit in Hollywood. By fulfilling our universal need for connection, great stories and memorable moments, entertainment captivates the world. Video games are a unique and growing part of this community, driving global culture, intersecting and interacting with music, movies and television. Two of the world’s best developers Steve Martin of Lightspeed LA and Mathias Nørvig of Sybo were on hand, to discuss mobile gaming, the future of game development and the importance of engaging fans to create and sustain outstanding game IP, like “Last Sentinel” and “Subway Surfers.”

Tencent Spotlight: Norbert Varga, Senior Concept Artist Curious what it’s like to be an animator at a global games company? Our first #TencentSpotlight shines on Norbert Varga🌟, a Senior Concept Artist at TiMi Studios. Norbert’s journey with digital art began at 27, inspired by the release of the first PlayStation. Taking a leap of faith, he left a stable warehouse job to enroll in a 3D art class. The limitless possibilities to create anything he could imagine fueled Norbert’s passion and determination to pursue a career in digital art. Today, he has worked in the industry for almost 18 years and has contributed to iconic titles, like Cyberpunk 2077, Halo 2, and Game of Thrones. Having recently joined the company, Norbert already appreciates the vibrant, collaborative spirit at Tencent: “Everyone has a voice here, and we work together to efficiently achieve our objectives.” Norbert has a diverse global background, having spent time in Hungary, Australia, and the US. Currently based in our Playa Vista office, every day is a chance to explore new perspectives and work with creative minds across our international offices: “What makes us unique is that we’re open-minded, and eager to experiment with new ideas.” “Right now, I'm doing Look Development, helping to develop the visual style of games and build worlds through creating color, textures, and materials. I enjoy doing this a lot because it involves a little bit of everything, and it presents fun challenges and provides many opportunities for experimentation. The quest for knowledge is an infinite journey :)” Thank you for your positive spirit and contributions to Tencent Americas, Norbert! 🚀 #LifeAtTencent #TencentCareers
