ZujuGP, a digital football community helmed by the son of secretive Singaporean investor Peter Lim and fronted by global superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, is bringing over the employees of a gaming-technology startup to bolster the infrastructure behind its app.
It acquired the team behind Tokigames, which provides technology for sporting brands to engage with fans online, the company said in a statement on Wednesday. The 14 new employees will be part of a new digital arm of ZujuGP, which will be headed by Tokigames co-founder Mervyn Lau and build new features as the company prepares to launch its app in the fourth quarter.
