ABOUT
Welcome to Laetum, where we're redefining the landscape of content creation through the lens of diversity, inclusion, and authenticity. The gaming community can sometimes feel exclusive and unwelcoming. Recognizing this, we've created Laetum, a space where LGBTQIA+ voices and stories are not only heard but celebrated.
Mission
"Break norms. Build Community. Be queer." We're here to challenge the status quo, creating a vibrant network where LGBTQIA+ people across the gaming sphere and beyond can find support, visibility, and a platform to express their authentic selves.
​
vision
Laetum was born in February 2023, sprouting from the vision of Nia Crews and Nia’s belief in the power of community. Our journey is beginning in the gaming world which is severely lacking in safe spaces for queer and BIPOC individuals. Our goal is to uplift these voices, fostering a diverse and inclusive community where every gamer and content creator can thrive as their authentic selves.
​
content
At Laetum, we're leveraging the dynamic and accessible nature of platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram to showcase content that resonates with, empowers, and entertains the LGBTQIA+ community and its allies. As we evolve, we plan to explore everything from video games that aren’t shy about their queer themes, to movies where the queer characters are front and center, to TV shows where the queer love interest survives past episode three.
​
values
Diversity, Inclusion, Community, Authenticity, Empathy—these are the values upon which Laetum stands. They guide our actions, from the creators we collaborate with to the content we share and the initiatives we undertake. By embracing these values, we aim to create a network that's as varied and vibrant as the community we serve.
​
approach
Starting with gaming, we plan to expand our horizons, exploring new niches and platforms as we grow. Our bootstrapped beginnings are a testament to our commitment: even with limited resources, our dedication to our community is unwavering. We're on a journey of mutual growth, inviting creators who are as passionate about the LGBTQIA+ community as we are to join us.
