- Nitro Games shares were listed on Nasdaq First North Stockholm market place June 16th and therefore we were able to secure the funds we need to start our self-publishing operations.
- We brought Medals of War to first markets. We’re off to a good start with our self-publishing operations as the game was soft launched in Sweden and the Netherlands during the interim period.
- We’ve seen strong growth in our business where we offer our services to 3rd parties, which has resulted in growth in revenue.
