Building, from the ground up, a new P&L for the company (its Casual IP business), leveraging my extensive global network of industry connections in the entertainment, media and mobile fields to build successful partnerships with A List movie studios, TV shows and artists. It also included recruiting teams, leading them and overseeing production of products from inception to global launch and onto live operations. Recent highlights included literally walking the red carpet in Hollywood during the official global launch of the Jumanji sequel movie. This was the highlight of almost 24 months working on getting this deal signed and then onto building the team and developing the movie game in time for the movie premier. Marketing wise, I defined and executed the company’s B2B marketing vision, strategy and work plans through PR, MARCOM, Social and Events, helped build and expand the company’s reach and recognition of the brand, and drove potential partners’ awareness, engagement and satisfaction. Most importantly I helped the company to meet its business challenges and objectives. Recent highlights included leading and managing a new gaming hub in TLV and initiating the first ever Women In Games event in Israel which brought together 120 top executives across the board. The event was scheduled for mid March and the night before was pushed to an unknown date due to the Covid outbreak.In addition to my professional role at the company, for more than 10 years now, regardless where I worked, I took it upon myself to connect the companies I work with to charities. These initiatives included yearly donations and volunteer work. Last achievement was uniting key gaming and service companies in Israel and encouraging them to "adopt" one of the peripheral israeli hospitals and support them during the Covid outbreak by raising funds and praising them publicly.
