On September 12th, the Games Institute (GI) welcomed representatives from AMD, a global leader in advanced computing technologies. The delegation toured the GI facility, exploring GI labs and learning about ongoing research that are currently taking place at the GI.

Visiting from AMD were Suneet Joshi, a Campus Recruitment Manager, and Maria Abila, Senior Program Management Analyst. Joshi and Abila were hosted by Stephanie Osborne, the Senior Development Office from the Faculty of Engineering. As part of AMD's broader visit to UWaterloo campus, Joshi and Abila had a chance to engage with GI researchers to learn more about the eSports initiatives and interdisciplinary projects conducted by the HX lab.

The meeting sparked interest in potential collaboration and mutual interest on leveraging solutions to enhance research organized at GI involving virtual reality and human-computer interaction, etc.

Thanks to all our members who showcased their work!
