Investing and M&A in the Games Ecosystem

Investing and M&A in the Games Ecosystem

This panel of investors discusses the current climate for investment and M&A in the games ecosystem. How have games revenues been impacted since the “stay at home” orders?  How has coronavirus changed the way investors are evaluating  opportunities already in their pipelines as well as new opportunities? Are there opportunities now (investment or M&A) that didn’t exist prior to the outbreak? For new investments, how do investors take into account what might happen in 1 to 2 years?
