AppQuantum VC launches $10M fund for mobile games

The mobile game publisher AppQuantum has announced the creation of a new strategic investment fund, AppQuantum VC. With $10 million under management, the fund aims to support early-stage game studios worldwide. The initiative seeks to fill a market gap, providing not only capital but also crucial operational experience for success.

AppQuantum VC targets pre-seed and seed rounds, looking for teams with original games that explore new genres. The geographic focus is broad, with emphasis not only on the United States but also on Europe, Latin America, and Southeast Asia. These regions have been identified as markets with significant audience growth potential. Initial checks from the fund range from $250K to $1.5M, with the possibility of additional support as studios expand.

The value proposition of AppQuantum VC goes beyond financial capital. The fund aims to connect studios to the AppQuantum "internal stack," granting access to valuable resources. This includes "cutting-edge analytics, marketing technology, user acquisition resources, and best practices for live operations." This approach is a differentiator, aiming to transform talented studios into "sustainable game businesses," as envisioned by the company.

Evgeny Maurus, founder of AppQuantum, stated: "There is a huge gap for teams that have the talent but need real marketing power and operational know-how to break through the growth ceiling. We are not just supporting games — we are helping to build sustainable game businesses."

The company has already made its first moves in the market, with more announcements planned soon. AppQuantum VC demonstrates an investment model that integrates the experience of a successful publisher with the capital needed to nurture the next generation of mobile game developers.
