Wooga (2009 – today)

Wooga started in 2009 which is the same year i started working there and we’ve both come a long way. Many ups and downs formed the company which was founded by Jens Begemann (CEO), Patrick Paulisch (Co-founder) and Philipp Moeser (CTO) in Berlin/Germany. Jens Begemann directed the company as CEO for over 11 years handing over the CEO role to Nai Chang in Q1 of 2020.

Listen to the Gründerscene Podcast with Georg Räth and founder Jens Begemann (German) where he is sharing a very interesting overview and some insights on his decision or check out the Pocket Gamer article (English).

I am very proud having shaped this company with many others to what it is today. Wooga is truly focused on it’s vision and high-quality storytelling is what makes it unique. A tight focus in a collaborative and inclusive working environment like no other makes Wooga more successful, not less.

I am especially proud of the values we defined over the years:

  • Thoughtful Communication
  • One Company
  • Being Close to Our Players
  • Being Accountable
  • Embracing Innovation
  • Sharing Knowledge

Read more about the values here.

Some of my biggest contributions have been:

  • Creating genre defining (and leading) hit games like Pearl’s Peril and June’s Journey creating millions of revenue.
  • Setting up, shaping and living the company product vision.
  • Forming the company being part of the management navigating through the challenges the company faced since 2013.
  • Hiring a lot key Woogas over the years which most of them are still part of the company.

Here a team picture from 2011 when i was still working on Happy Hospital before concepting Pearl’s Peril:
