Chris Hewish is the President of Xsolla. His legendary career in gaming includes Activision (employee #100) and long run at Dreamworks, headed up their Interactive Division.  

At Xsolla, they are the Shopify for video games including commerce and game technology.

Hear about the lessons from his journey including his migration from pure creative to overseeing profit and loss. He also learned about serious focus. Enjoy his story on Meridian 59 and the passion behind a new game, but without a business model that can be proven. Remember, there is always a new shiney toy to chase. Don't risk disrupting your core business. 

At Dreamworks, he worked with Jeffrey Katzenberg learning that it okay to try and fail. Just remember to pivot quickly. And the importance of linear content development, honoring the creatives, but building a business along side the great ideas. 

And meet Chris, the DAD. Listen to his endearing story of building games with his children. His love for creativity continues into the next generation. 

To succeed in gaming, you must meet the team at Xsolla. Visit www.xsolla.com.
