Hui, but Sony has put a lot of effort into the postage account. the manufacturer has launched a $ 100 million fund to fight COVID-19.
According to a Sony press release, the immense amount will primarily be used in three areas. The main aim is to support medical personnel who are at the forefront of the pandemic. Furthermore, children and teachers are to be supported and the aim is to support the creative community in the entertainment industry.
In addition to music and films, the games area is also explicitly mentioned, so it is only natural that Sony wants to use the fund to support smaller studios that are struggling for their existence due to the corona crisis. For the medical sector, $ 10 million is spent on the World Health Organization's (WHO) COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund. When it comes to education, Sony wants to get involved in technology.
More and more entertainment companies are now committed to the fight against Corona. Rockstar, for example, donates five percent of the revenue from all online sales of GTA Online and Read Dead Online to businesses and communities. Ubisoft has invested $ 150,000 in the WHO COVID-19 Relief Fund. Razer has switched part of its production and plans to manufacture and donate up to a million surgical masks. CD Projekt RED donates around one million dollars for the fight against Corona. Riot Games has donated a total of around $ 1.5 million to organizations in and around Los Angeles. And that's just a small selection. Strong.
