Sumo's learning vision

With thousands of employees spread across the world, Sumo Group needed a platform that could surface employee expertise and share it across the entire company. The challenge was building a genuine social learning culture while maintaining the skills development that kept their creative teams at the top of the games industry.

An award-winning partnership

Sumo Group launched DOJO on Thrive, creating a home for learning, knowledge sharing and connection. Spaces gave studios their own communities for sharing expertise, while structured pathways supported leadership development and creative career progression across the group.

From worlds apart to world class

The platform brought a self-directed, social learning culture to life and improved communication across the business. Analytics gave leadership visibility of engagement and skills development across every studio worldwide.

"Unanimously, Thrive came back as our provider of choice because of the great user experience, it was so easy to use and understand. We put it out to our people and asked how they felt about it. People said it was so intuitive and I'm going to be coming back to it regularly, which was the key point for us.”
