In today's gaming landscape, mobile reigns supreme, representing over half of the entire games market. The popularity of mobile phones as a platform is a key factor in their success, allowing developers to reach players around the world. At the forefront of this mobile gaming revolution is Supercell, a global entertainment company with offices in Helsinki, Shanghai, San Francisco, and Seoul dedicated to creating new, innovative and memorable games.

Supercell has established itself as a leader in the mobile gaming industry by creating titles that are played and remembered by millions of players around the world. Since its launch in 2010, Supercell has built an industry-leading team and delivered five groundbreaking games to the global market: Hay Day, Clash of Clans, Boom Beach, Clash Royale and Brawl Stars. These apps have captivated players and inspired thriving communities to this day. Supercell’s games have become more than entertainment - they have become part of players' lives creating lasting memories and connections.

Independent, global teams have been the driving force behind the success of these games. Unlike many traditional development studios, Supercell does not greenlight concepts or ideas. Instead, they greenlight teams. This unique approach gives its developers the power and independence to decide what kinds of games they make and how to make them. By fostering an environment of trust and collaboration, Supercell empowers its teams to create experiences that resonate with players.

Supercell's commitment to nurturing talent and fostering creativity extends beyond their games teams. The company is an active participant in Europe’s growing technology ecosystem and contributes to the development of the industry by supporting and collaborating with other companies, organisations, and individuals who share Supercell’s passion for innovation and excellence. As Ilkka Paananen, CEO of Supercell, says “the European tech community has developed massively over the past decade. Back when we were starting Supercell, there weren't that many successes coming from Europe. But these days, of course, it's completely different. I am very excited about all the up and coming companies that are coming from Finland.”

While Supercell has already achieved remarkable success, the company is excited about the potential to create social experiences that go beyond traditional gaming boundaries. As Ilkka points out, "on the social side, we're still scratching the surface." Supercell envisions a future where its games not only entertain, but forge even more meaningful connections among players, pushing the boundaries of social interaction in gaming. The future holds exciting possibilities for Supercell as they explore new frontiers in social gaming, aiming to create experiences that leave a lasting impact on players.
