Why Mobile Gaming VCs Love Fintech (Hint: UX!) 0
Apr 25, 2017
UX is a make-or-break component in mobile gaming, and many of the same learnings are being brought to fintech.

Alvaro Alvarez del Rio is Principal at Initial Capital, a mobile gaming and fintech focused venture capital fund. Prior to joining Initial Capital, Alvaro worked in investment banking and private equity.
 
Aman Ghei is Principal at Orange Growth Capital, a London- and Amsterdam-based venture capital firm focused on high growth fintech and mobile gaming companies. Prior to joining Orange Growth Capital, Aman worked at Facebook and Accel Partners.
