Sisu Game Ventures is an early-stage venture capital fund focused 100% on games. We set up shop in 2014 to support the most promising founders in the industry. Sisu has deep roots in the Nordic region, but our network of founders is fully global. We are veteran game developers helping other developers realize their dreams. The main thing is that we invest in teams - the people making the games - not just individual IPs or metrics. In addition to money, we invest our time and expertise to help level up the company for the next phase. We like to invest very early, preferably first money in. Pre-revenue and most often pre-product. The Nordic game industry is known for open collaboration and that’s a principle we also hold dear among our own portfolio companies and the investors we co-invest with. This accelerates the development of the companies giving an extra edge over the global competition. Over the past three decades the Sisu team members have built 16 game companies and invested in over 60 game startups. Sisu’s own investors come mostly from the game industry including dozens of individuals and a few game companies as well.
