Richard Chua Email Address

General Manager

Established in 2006, IGG was founded with the goal of becoming a leader in the global online interactive entertainment industry. From December 2007 through 2009, IGG received funding from IDGVC (a world renowned venture capital firm), Vertex (an investment firm under Temasek Holdings), and Hearst (a renowned media corporation in the US). The Group went public on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in October 2013 (HKSE: 8002). The Group offers free-to-play mobile, browser and client-based online games in 15 different languages, including top-grossing titles like Castle Clash, Clash of Lords 2, Deck Heroes, and Texas Hold'em Poker Deluxe. The majority of the games are produced by its own development teams. IGG now is a rapidly growing developer and publisher of mobile online games with a global presence and international customer base. The Group has its headquarters in Singapore with regional offices in the United States, China, Canada, Japan, Korea, Thailand and the Philippines. IGG is proud to bring a diverse portfolio of games with localized support to players from over 200 countries and regions and we plans to grow even further to provide the best possible customer service for all players. IGG encourages respect, communication, and most of all, an enjoyable experience for our players. We are dedicated to ceaselessly improving our products, understanding the global gaming market and creating an environment that nurtures creativity.

An executive with more than 20 years working experience, Richard has been in the Internet, gaming and new media industry since 1996. He has extensive start-up experience, having earned his stripes - and scars - in 6 'adventures' to date. Richard's ventures has been a little ahead of their time: he was involved in VOIP 5 years before Skype, in digital photo-sharing 3 years before Flickr, and in e-books 3 years before the Kindle. He ventured into online games in 2005, was President and Chief Operating Officer at IAHGames from 2007-2012, and currently sits on its board. As General Manager of IGG Singapore, he is responsible for its business in Southeast Asia. Richard believes we should "not go where the path may lead" but should "go instead where there is no path and leave a trail."
