Welcome to MeridianCast!
We’re launching MeridianCast, a new podcast about cross-border cooperation between East and West in the gaming industry.
The podcast focuses on the gaming business in Asia and the people building connections between markets. We invite industry professionals from across the region to share their insights, stories, and real-world experience - covering not only the gaming industry itself, but also what it takes to build a career in it.
MeridianCast is hosted by Ilya Gutov, CEO & Founder of Meridian Play, together with House Chau, VP of Global BD at JINKE.
For our first episode, House takes a different seat and joins Ilya as the podcast’s first guest.
House is a mobile game publishing expert with more than a decade of cross-border experience. He has led China market entry and licensing for 50+ titles from companies including SEGA, ZeptoLab, and MY.GAMES.
In Episode #1, Ilya and House discuss:
• House’s career journey in the gaming industry
• Game publishing and licensing in China
• Challenges in cross-border cooperation
• Opportunities for international games in China
• Stakeholder dynamics in game development and publishing
• Advice for newcomers entering the industry
From the next episodes onward, Ilya and House will host MeridianCast together, inviting guests from across the industry to share their experience and perspectives.
