Gamania takes stakeholders’ rights, expression of opinions, and material issues of their concern very seriously. We conduct identification through the following procedures as well as following the GRI Guidelines and the AA1000SES Stakeholder Engagement Standards to construct a standard process for materiality analysis, in order to understand the degree of interest of stakeholders related to different issues and their impact on operations, so as to serve as a reference for sustainable management. Meanwhile, we also have sound stakeholder communication and developed sound management policies for the identified material issues.

Identification of Stakeholders

In order to meet the expectations of stakeholders and implement our corporate social responsibility commitment, we adopted the five principles of AA1000SES: dependence, responsibility, tension, influence, and multiple perspectives. We also gave consideration to the groups or individuals that have an impact on the Company both internally and externally, and identified the five major stakeholders: Employees, investors/shareholders, partners, customers/consumers, and media/ the general public.

Analysis and Identification of Material Issues

In 2023, Gamania followed the GRI 3 Material Topics (2021 version) determination process and reporting principles to produce a list of 15 sustainability topics based on the operations and global trends. Compared to 2022, significant adjustments include merging "Regulatory Compliance" into "Corporate Governance and Integrity," adding "Supply Chain Management" to expand the scope of sustainability management, and including "Content Responsibility" to align with industry sustainability trends. Subsequent dual materiality analysis identified the internal and external impacts of these topics, considering not only the influence of sustainability on Gamania's operations and business but also how Gamania's operations impact society, the environment, and people, both positively and negatively.

 

Identification of Stakeholders

 

Material Topics Readjustment Flow

1. Production of a list of sustainability issues

The Company identified the sustainability issues and trends of international concern, such as those under the 2023 Global Risks Report of the World Economic Forum (WEF), material industry issues of S&P, major issues of SASB for the industry of software & IT services, and key issues concerning investors, and took the lists of major issues of domestic and foreign benchmark companies as reference. A list of 15 sustainability issues applicable to Gamania was thereby determined after analysis and screening.

4. Confirmation of major issues

After taking into account the stakeholders' level of concern, the operational impact on Gamania, the economic, environmental and social impacts, and the professional opinions of external consultants, the overall level of impact and the percentage ranking were calculated. Gamania eventually confirmed 8 major issues for 2023, including 3 critical issues and 5 secondary issues.

2. Investigation into the level of concern of stakeholders

We identified the stakeholders important to us based on the operating activities and value chain of Gamania, and distributed the "Stakeholder Concern Questionnaire" to assess the level of concern that external stakeholders had on 15 sustainability issues. 

5. Response to and disclosure of major issues

Gamania reported the results of major issue identification to the Board of Directors, and included them in the management scope of the Sustainable Development Committee with the authorization of the Board of Directors. The issues were also incorporated into the risk management process when necessary to continually improve various systems and accordingly enhance the performance of corporate sustainable development. They have been disclosed in the sustainability report and on the official website. In the future, the list of sustainability issues will be re-examined every year, with assessment carried out for the adjustment and identification of materiality.

3. Dual materiality analysis

Through dual materiality analysis, we reflected the level of financial and operational impacts of the issues on Gamania, and the level and possibility of the impacts Gamania had on the overall economy, environment, and society. We considered the potential impacts of external issues on Gamania's internal operations, and determined the economic, environmental, and social impacts of the issues from an internal perspective.
