This Week in the Metaverse: EP.02
a16z Funds, Electronic Arts M&A Rumors and Earnings With Brian Peganoff
We’re back with another edition of This Week in the Metaverse, episode 2 of the new series, and on this installment Matthew is joined by Brian Peganoff, an advisor to several games companies and previously the Senior Director of Corporate Development & Strategy at Glu Mobile, to break down three key developments in the wider metaverse space which we believe are worthy of a more in-depth coverage and on which we can provide a unique point-of-view.
In this episode of This Week in the Metaverse, we discuss:
The venture capital firm a16z launching their $600 million Games Fund One and $4.5 billion Crypto Fund Four.
Rumors that Electronic Arts is seeking a merger or sale after it explored a deal with Comcast’s NBC Universal and that Apple, Amazon and Disney are among suitors.
Earnings takeaways from Roblox, Unity and Nvidia.
We would love to hear from you with topics and guests that you would like to hear about, and from, on our podcast. DMs are open: Yon | Matthew.
