(5)Kaiser Wong
Kaiser Wong is the CEO of Pocket River, a mobile game publisher founded in 2011 that brings social and casual titles from indie developers to players on iOS and Android worldwide. Working across Hong Kong, mainland China and a US presence in Austin, Texas, he has helped ship games including MiniBattle, 4 Kingdoms and StarSequel, positioning the company as a bridge between small game studios and a global audience. His focus is publishing services: marketing, monetization, community and support for developers who want reach without building a publishing arm of their own.
Jenny Xu
Jenny Xu is the founder and CEO of Talofa Games, the San Francisco studio behind Run Legends, a heads-up fitness RPG where your running speed powers turn-based battles heard through spatial audio. A competitive MIT cross-country runner who shipped her first game at 12, she has released 10+ mobile titles with 10 million-plus downloads, earned a spot on Forbes 30 Under 30, and raised $6.3M in seed funding to build games that make players mentally and physically healthier.
Christopher Farm
Christopher Farm is the co-founder and CEO of Tenjin, a San Francisco mobile marketing analytics and attribution company that grew out of Y Combinator's Summer 2014 batch. An MIT-trained mechanical engineer who detoured through investment banking, corporate M&A and mobile ad product roles before building tools for app developers, Farm has turned Tenjin into one of the data backbones for indie and mid-size mobile game studios trying to measure where their users come from and whether they are worth the money.
Michael Martinez
Michael Martinez is the CEO and co-founder of FunCraft, a San Francisco-based mobile game studio he launched in 2019 with longtime collaborator Jason McGuirk. A Zynga and Electronic Arts veteran who previously founded Juicebox Games, Martinez built FunCraft around a deliberately unglamorous bet: making casual word and puzzle games that become daily rituals rather than chasing trends. With a fully remote team of roughly 15-21 people, the studio crossed 7 million installs and more than $15 million in revenue in its first five years on the strength of titles like Wordgrams, Word Yatzy and Merge Kingdoms. Martinez is a vocal skeptic of gaming hype cycles, publicly stepping back from Web3 with the line that blockchain was 'a solution in search of a problem,' and an evangelist for testing everything and embracing the unsexy.
Randy Wang
Randy Wang is the CEO of Wingz, a healthcare transportation marketplace that pivoted from airport rides into non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) for vulnerable populations. A UC Berkeley economist who started in investment banking at Jefferies (as its first Shanghai employee) and co-founded the Shanghai mobile-games studio Camigo Media, he now runs a network of credentialed, vetted drivers who get patients to the care they need - and lets those drivers earn with flexibility and purpose.
