SPOTLIGHT
Bossa Studios is THE gaming startup to watch.
Based in London, United Kingdom Bossa Studios was founded by four powerhouses. Henrique Olifiers (CEO/Co - Founder), Roberta Lucca (Co-Founder/CMO), Imre Jeles (CIF/ Co- Founder) and Ric Moore (CCO/ Co-Founder) to create interactive titles like I Am Bread & Surgeon Simulator that bring us back in time where we played classic board games like Operation but virtually! Roberta Lucca touches on her story and struggles as a female role model in the gaming industry and encourages women to challenge the status quo and find their inner voice.
Some of the features we love: their creator program which allows creators to gain access to many Bossa perks such as playtests of unreleased games, exclusive merch, access to gaming event opportunities + more!
