Testimonial

"There is a reason why entrepreneurs that have started and made an exit with their startups are repeatedly coming back to PunktB with their ideas and businesses. I am on my fourth venture now with Resolution Games. Previously I was part of the fantastic Candy Crush Saga with King. That had just not been possible without PunktB. If there will be a time in the future when I have an opportunity starting a venture, this will clearly be with my friends and mentors at PunktB."

Testimonial

"When I think about growth, PunktB is the first thing that comes to my mind. Through ventures like Shortcut, Talent Scout and later on DMH I’ve gotten to experience planting a seed, nurture it and later on shedding its fruits. Through these journeys PunktB has not only been the water and nutrition - it’s a company built by people that gives me guidance when I’m tired of digging dirt, and picks me up when I fall off the latter. I admit, there was a time when I considered starting new businesses without involving PunktB. I’ve also considered base jumping and other endeavors that would be nothing but dumb."
