And the good news keeps rolling. We are thrilled to announce the acquisition of our portfolio company SuperPlay by Playtika for up to $1.9bn. Congratulations to all involved on a stellar transaction.

We are pleased to share that Nazara Technologies Limited has acquired a 48% stake in our portfolio company, Moonshine Technology (the operator of Baazi Games ). This investment was straight out of the Velo playbook backing exceptional founders to build product leadership and own a vertical. It’s been a highly rewarding journey from investing at the seed round to Baazi Games becoming the market leader in poker in India; and we couldn't be happier for Navkiran Singh , Puneet Singh , and their team. We also want to wish a hearty congratulations to Nazara Technologies Limited , Nitish Mittersain , and their team for acquiring an excellent asset that will further drive their compelling story. https://lnkd.in/gkpetzrt
