The founders of Sumo Group, this UK game developer, are stepping away after… what, 22 years? Yeah, that’s a long ride.
So, picture this: they sent out a note to investors—this formal thingy—saying Carl Cavers, Paul Porter, and some guy named Darren Mills (not sure what he did, but “director of excellent”… sounds fancy) are leaving. Now, Andy Stewart, the money guy—CFO they call him—and Gary Dunn, who just got a shiny promotion, are taking the helm. Like, sharing the chief’s chair. Imagine that!
Speaking of promotions, Tim Repa-Davies is joining the big table too. He’s the top legal eagle, so maybe he’ll play referee now.
Here’s what Cavers said, sort of wistfully: “Leaving something we’ve spent 20+ years on, yeah, it’s not simple, but feels right.” I get it. Sometimes you just know, right?
Anyway, Stewart chimed in, “Sumo’s naturally evolving, holding on to our core, and gazing forward with some kind of clarity.” Honestly, sounds like they’re setting out on some epic quest. Can’t wait to see where they end up.
