Who is Kate Edwards?
Kate Edwards is the executive director of the International Game Developers Association. She is also a geographer, writer and content culturalization strategist, most active in information-based cartography and video game content. She was born in Lynwood, California on 24 February 1965 and was raised in Mission Viejo, California. She has resided in the suburbs of Seattle since 1989. She is known for pioneering the field of geopolitical risk assessment in digital content and content culturalization, from online maps and reference materials to video games, and her work on the geocultural impacts of the globalization and localization of content. She once wrote, "We can actually look at any specific local culture as a combined set of “content assets” that clearly define the look, feel, sound, taste and general nature of the culture in very much the same way the content assets of a game define the look, feel, sound and general nature of the unique game world."
