Luca’s Insight Track with Paul Dawalibi: Breaking Myths, Making Millions & Gaming the Future

from LIT- Luca's Insight Track · host Rasha Hamzeh

Welcome to Season 3 of Luca’s Insight Track! We’re kicking things off with a powerhouse episode featuring Paul Dawalibi — tech futurist, venture capitalist, CEO of Holodeck Ventures, and someone many refer to simply as “The Profit.” Why? Because when Paul makes a prediction about the future of technology or gaming, it usually comes true. Whether it was forecasting the rise of Nvidia long before the AI wave or confidently calling out the fall of Google Stadia, Paul’s track record is nothing short of remarkable. In this wide-ranging conversation, Luca and Paul explore the true size and impact of the gaming industry — an ecosystem bigger than film, music, and TV combined — and why it still doesn’t get the mainstream attention it deserves, especially from advertisers. They discuss how the perception of gamers has evolved, why mobile leads the charge, and how governments in the Middle East (especially Dubai and Saudi Arabia) are strategically positioning themselves as global gaming hubs. The two also dive into the psychology behind gaming, the power of escapism, and why Paul believes “The Future is Fun” — a phrase he’s literally trademarked. From gender shifts in gaming demographics to gamifying this very podcast, the episode is packed with unexpected insights, bold predictions, and a fresh take on what gaming really means today. If you’re a marketer, founder, gamer, investor, or just someone curious about the future — this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.💬 Join the conversation!
