Since the company's launch five years ago, Livewire has doubled its revenue every year, scaling rapidly across key markets as the single-entry point for the world's largest brands to connect with gamers. Powered by its proprietary data platform Gamer.ID, Livewire seamlessly integrates brands into gaming environments, inside the game, around the game, and through immersive experiences, while partnering with the most trusted game publishers.

Gaming is the next frontier of digital media consumption.
