We believe this process shouldn't be a mystery or a black box for founders. There is enough struggle already in fundraising. So, why not explain our thought process and allow founders to measure their pitch against our framework? This can lead to a better understanding of the process and ultimately improve the chances of successful fundraising in these challenging times. This is our perspective, other funds may have different views, but I believe the general principles are universal.

Finnish Game Industry Crisis Causes

Finnish #gameindustry is at its worst economical point, and we need to have a reality check on the causes that has driven us here - this is important if we would want to achieve the vision Ilkka Paananen called out along with Suomen startup-yhteisö. 1. Lack of commercial sentiment & #leadership - after 2016-2018, the industry were left behind vs. how foreign businesses evolved:- Studios have been too creative-driven & relaxed.- IP & brand syndromes, e.g., many haven't created new hits since their 1st nor been able to create new IPs / brands.- Missed completely #hypercasual wave & its learnings; and, because of this, came late to #hybridcasual.- Many don't know how to publish & distribute games.

Overcoming the Mobile Ad Failure Rate with AI

Did you know that 85-95% of mobile ads fail? This high failure rate indicates that most new ad concepts struggle to become top performers. If an ad isn't the best performer, it will stop getting impressions very quickly—in some cases, as little as a few hundred or a few thousand impressions. Yet, some ads, as if sprinkled with magic, continue to perform for weeks or months, spending a tremendous amount of money.   Source: Consumer Acquisition There is no changing the failure or success rate. The only thing you can do is come up with a mechanism for incubating new ideas. We hypothesize that AI can help you take your best-performing videos and keep them alive longer.
