In this episode, we explore the state of the gaming industry and where it's headed by talking to Brad Foxhoven, CEO of EverGame Media, and Matt Story, VP Visa Global Brand Partnerships & Advocacy. This conversation gets into how creators are engaging in the online gaming space and how online gaming platforms are providing opportunities for individuals to turn their gaming efforts into viable side hustles and even core businesses. Traditionally, gaming has been a closed walled system with only a small proportion of transactions being micro and the majority of earnings going to the game developers.
