New Addition To The AW-team

Hello everyone!

I am the new addition to the Afterwind team. My function in the AW team is business development. In short terms this means that I will be working on promoting, guiding the line of the business, Business relaions etc. However my most important function will be to keep whipping Amok and Ivan to progress their developments!

At the moment I am finishing my graduate on CBS (Copenhagen business school). Before I joined AW I was part of a new project (WelfareDenmark) consisting of 5 Kinect programmers and 3 sales/business development guys. I was part of the 3 sales/business development guys. We started from scratch two years ago; the project turned out very well; a bigger company offered xx million dollars for the 60% of the firm.

However a couple of month ago i quited my position at welfaredenmark to start working on Afterwind.

We (Amok, Ivan and I) have made a long term plan for Afterwind, custom maps is just the first part of the plan. But there are more goodies coming.

My first priority atm is to boost the recognition of Afterwind and the numbers of players.

Hope you guys are as excited as we are!

Cheers!
Morten/Elme

Ivan (Admin) Squirrels! Posts: 2238 From: Finland	11.10.2012 - 11:04 Ivan (Admin) OK, just to confirm, this guy is legit and not someone who just hacked the website We kept him under wraps for almost half a year now, sharing our vision and plans for the game. He was actually the catalyst for the ambitious Custom maps update. His actual work with AW started just now, and look out! - he's obviously gearing up to bring masses of new players to the game With the pressure of doing the promotion (something me and Amok are not very fond of) off our backs, we have more time to dedicate to the actual game development, yay! And with the potential increase in revenue, we're hoping to eventually concentrate on AW full-time. Loading... Loading...
