ISTANBUL CONFIDENTlAL with RINA ONUR , CEO @ Spyke Games / co-Founder of Peak Games

from Deconstructor of Fun · host Deconstructor of Fun

A $55M seed round for a mobile gaming company sounds like a mistake until you talk to Rina Onar, the CEO of the company that raised it. Rina is the co-founder of Peak Games, which sold to Zynga for nearly 2 billion Dollars. But instead of taking it easy after 13 grueling years growing Turkey's first unicorn games company, Rina hopped back on the grind mobile with her ex-Peak co-founders and is now steering Spyke Games as a CEO. In this episode, we talk about the unique characteristics of Turkish gaming companies, how to enter mature categories successfully, what it takes to build a winning culture, and of course - how to raise monster seed rounds. thanks to our sponsors: Hereic Labs, Xsolla, AppsFlyer, Data.ai
