Riot Games board finds no wrongdoing by CEO Nicolo Laurent, denies misconduct allegations in new court filing

In the statement sent Tuesday to Riot employees, the special committee tasked with reviewing the results of the third-party investigation into Laurent outlined a timeline for the investigation, the rules governing the work of the special committee, and ultimately, the group's recommendation that no action be taken. The three-person special committee, a part of Riot's board of directors, is made up of Youngme Moon, a professor at Harvard Business School and the only publicly-named member of Riot Games's board. She is joined by two male C-Level executives at the Chinese tech giant Tencent, which owns Riot Games. The company declined to name these members of the special committee.
