Following its deal with Take-Two Interactive, VaultN announced investments totalling $3.5m from the Sony Innovation Fund and London Venture Partners. These funds will accelerate the expansion of the platform.
VaultN, a technology company renowned for its digital distribution platform, has secured $3.5 million in funding in a round led by the Sony Innovation Fund (SIF) and London Venture Partners (LVP). This investment is a significant milestone for the company, emphasising the need for connected publishing ecosystems in the games industry.
"VaultN has quickly proven itself a trusted partner to game publishers, and we see vast potential in their approach to addressing distribution fragmentation and discoverability," said Antonio Avitabile, Managing Director, Sony Ventures – EMEA. "We're excited to join VaultN on this journey as they shape the future of publishing."
"We see VaultN as a true catalyst for the future of publishing," said Are Mack Growen, General Partner at London Venture Partners. "By transforming an archaic and fragmented ecosystem with transparency and scale, they are unlocking growth and discoverability that will empower publishers, strengthen retailer partnerships, and drive efficiency across the entire value chain. We are delighted to back such a strong team that has already demonstrated remarkable traction with major partners." Recently, VaultN partnered with Take-Two Interactive Software to improve the publisher's management and distribution of games via third-party channels.
VaultN was founded by gaming industry veterans Julian Migura and Emrah Kara. It provides a unified, agnostic layer that replaces fragmented distribution workflows and unifies operations. The new funding will accelerate VaultN’s roadmap, enabling the expansion of the platform with the addition of upcoming modules for payments, media and data-powered market intelligence. VaultN promises publishers and partners "fewer leaks, greater visibility and more efficient operations".
"We're building the trust layer of the games industry," said Emrah Kara, CEO and Co-founder of VaultN. "Our platform connects publishers, retailers, and platforms into one secure ecosystem - helping them collaborate, distribute, and grow together. This investment not only validates that vision but also gives us the fuel to deliver it. With our growing global network and the strength of our partners, VaultN is paving the way for a new era of publishing - one built on trust, transparency, and intelligent data."
