ICYMI: Mike Uyama, founder of the charity speedrunning event GamesDoneQuick, has officially announced that he is departing the company. GDQ AGDQ2023
\n Ever since the event started in his mom's basement in Utah in 2010, Uyama has been a part of it, helping grow the organization and helping raise more than $41M for a variety of charities. With Uyama stepping down, GDQ's longtime Director of Operations, Matt Merkle, will be stepping up to fill his role as Owner and Managing Director, with plans to hire a brand new assistant manager to replace Merkle. We have a couple of quotes from both men about the change.
'I would not have been able to do it without the help of Matt Merkle and the growth of GDQ would not have been possible without the help of the speedrunning community, which has grown both in size and diversity over the years. I'm not sure where I'll go next, but one thing I am sure about is that I will take a break and a vacation before diving headfirst into my next adventure.
