Interview with GamesPad co-founders

Q. Why did you decide to launch GamesPad?

Constantin Kogan: The idea was to build a vertically integrated ecosystem, a gaming metaverse, and NFT platform where gaming projects will have an opportunity to gain the maximum from incubation, our business network, our experience and make sure they have proper onboarding with the industry players involved, whether they are investors or influencers.

Unfortunately, there are a lot of investors who mimic to be a VC. They don’t have a proper background and experience in being venture capitalists. They are investing without conducting thorough due diligence.

What’s more, we see many low-quality projects launching on other platforms today. Some of them attract attention just because they’re more skilled at marketing. And vice versa, there are a lot of potentially successful projects with great technology, but they have weak marketing. So, we decided to create GamesPad to help high-quality projects build a community, develop technology, and bring their game and metaverse concepts to reality.

Eran Elhanani: We feel that the metaverse and gaming will become the most crucial blockchains and crypto use cases. That’s where a big part of the adoption will be. I personally believe that the metaverse will be the future where people would be spending most of their time. We want to be a part of this future and have an impact on it. I think that’s why we felt the need to launch GamesPad.

Q. What makes GamesPad unique?

Eran Elhanani: GamesPad is an ecosystem with a big-picture vision. It’s not just another launchpad. GamesPad brings together a decentralized VC, multichain launchpad, game incubator, NFT aggregator and marketplace, and more. There’s no one else in the market offering something like that now.

Constantin Kogan: Our mission and our vision also make us different. We are truly community-oriented, and we believe that the culture and the philosophy of GamesPad are very different from competitors. In our opinion, only sustainable companies with a holistic vision on how to combine all the game launch aspects in one place will win.

It’s about building a powerful community of long-term thinkers. We are also building a community of long-term investors and supporters who open the door to different avenues like marketing, exchanges, or other portfolio companies that can build win-win businesses together and cross-promote each other. All of those things are not a typical vision. Many launchpads claim that they’re doing it or trying to do it, but they are actually not.

Q. How do you see the future of GamesPad?

Eran Elhanani: Obviously, we see GamesPad as becoming an ecosystem for all gaming, metaverse, and NFT needs. Whether you want to buy NFTs, invest in projects, launch a game, or make partnerships in space, you just can go to GamesPad because it will have everything. It will be the go-to place and the flag bearer of the entire industry.

Q. What are your plans by the end of this year for GamesPad?

Eran Elhanani: The plan is to launch GamesPad. Among our plans is the first IDO with a centralized exchange by the end of the year. We also hope to have some nice partnerships and start growing our community.

Constantin Kogan: Yes, the launch is our priority now. We want to make sure that we are doing the maximum to make more and more people hear about us. We’re also now building partnerships that will help us establish a strong presence in several strategic markets, such as Latin America, Europe, and South Asia.
