With a 1,000-strong workforce split evenly across Russia and Ukraine, the outbreak of war on Feb 24 hurt one European gaming company perhaps more than any other.

Stockholm-based G5 Entertainment AB is now conducting a major overhaul of its organisational footprint by opening offices in Georgia, Malta, Montenegro and Turkey. According to chief executive officer Vlad Suglobov the aim of the changes is two-fold: to diversify its staff base and to offer safe relocation for those forced to flee their home countries.
