Overwolf Selected as a Top 100 Next Unicorn by Viva Technology

This week, Overwolf was recognised amongst the most prestigious technology scale ups in the world by Viva Technology. So far, a third of the companies on VivaTech’s top list for 2019 to 2023 have already become unicorns. Those named are some of the fastest-growing tech companies with the potential to reach a valuation of $1 billion or more in the near future.

The rigorous selection process is compiled in partnership with the investment bank GP Bullhound and with contributions from four of the world’s leading investment funds: Accel, Eurazeo, NorthZone, and Partech. The list of scaleups is based on actual and potential growth, total funds raised, headcount growth, positive impact on society and more.

Since 2010, Overwolf’s vision has been resolute on both revolutionizing gaming and redefining the boundaries of what’s possible in the tech landscape. We’re immensely proud to be a market leader within the in-game user-generated content (UGC) ecosystem, paying out over $201M to UGC creators in 2023 alongside building an audience of over 43 million monthly active users and 165,000 creators on our platforms.

Our family of companies has grown with our acquisition of the world’s biggest mod repository in CurseForge and industry-leading gaming payments platform Tebex, providing a complete suite of creation tools and resources required to make unique gaming experiences for both AAA and indie studios alike.

We firmly believe that UGC is fundamental to extending the longevity and engagement of video games — and want to express our deepest gratitude to the network of individual in-game creators and professional studios who are on this journey with us.
