The average age at the company is 33; this reflects the fact that the video game industry is barely 30
years old. All ages are represented in the Company’s staff, with 87.5% of the population in the 25-45
age bracket.
The low representation of higher age brackets is due to the Group’s recent creation, in 1986.

Ubisoft is present on all continents. With 86 different nationalities, Ubisoft cultivates the cultural mix
required for a good understanding of the gamer and improved adaptation of games to cultural
differences.
