Profile

The Games Fund (TGF) is an early-stage venture capital fund based in New York, founded by seasoned professionals from the video game industry. This firm is composed of a team of partners, including General Partners Maria Kochmola, Ilia Eremeev, and Ilya Karpinskiy, alongside other key team members. They are distinguished by their deep expertise and hands-on experience in the gaming world, allowing them to provide valuable insights and support for burgeoning game developers.

TGF specializes in investing in game development, gaming technologies, and related services. The firm targets early-stage investments without restricting itself to specific geographic locations, aligning investments to the fund's global vision of identifying and nurturing future gaming industry leaders. Despite the lack of explicit details on fund size or specific stages, their focus on early-stage investments suggests an inclination towards smaller, initial investment sizes.

The Games Fund's portfolio features companies such as Järvi - a multiplayer action sandbox on mobile, KEK Entertainment - next-gen multiplayer action games, and Hypemasters - mobile WWII RTS games. Other notable investments include Purple Games, Made on Earth, and Starkit, each contributing uniquely to the gaming landscape.
