Hunting the next Supercell

November 21, 2018 //

A fellow games entrepreneur just shared with me this youtube video of the keynote I did this summer at Casual Connect titled: “Hunting the next Supercell”. This presentation is based on the work I have been doing with Mattias Ljungman and Stephen Thorne in the Atomico games investment team first as an Entrepreneur in Residence and then as a Venture Partner. Since my work at Atomico is done in parallel with running eRepublik Labs (that I sold to Stillfront in 2017), I try to have a candid & direct approach about why games is an interesting space for VC and what we base our investment decisions on in this space. Hope you find this useful.

Atomico Game investments past and present include: Rovio, Supercell, Bossa Studios, Teatime and OhBibi

“Let’s start gaming” South Summit Fireside chat with Social Point CFO Joaquim Lecha (video)

I had a bit of an improvised Fireside chat with Joaquim Lecha of Social Point at the South Summit in Madrid a few weeks ago. I say it was improvised because Mike Butcher from TechCrunch was supposed to be the moderator and did not make it in the end. I think the conversation with Joaquim ended up being quite interesting, I did not know him before and was impressed by his knowledge and understanding of the mobile games market. We ended up covering a lot of the challenges that developers of mobile games go trough at the moment and the different approaches that companies like Wooga, King, Social Point or my own eRepublik Labs are taking to face these challenges.  I hope you find the chat interesting its about 30 minutes long.
