Why Gaming Companies Should Think of Themselves as Audience Companies with Hermann Peterscheck, Founder and Portfolio Manager at Hypernormal Capital Management LLC

For today's show, I invited on Hermann Peterscheck, Founder and Portfolio Manager at Hypernormal Capital Management LLC. I met him recently when he participated in the Stock Pitch World Cup on Team Europe. Also a US-resident, he was on Team Europe because he was pitching a video game development company based in Europe. I started thinking about my own experience with video games, and it took me a minute because my heyday was playing FIFA and Madden on Playstation 2. Safe to say, the gaming industry has grown A LOT since then.

I've also interviewed a number of MicroCap companies that would describe themselves as gaming or gaming-adjacent, and while it doesn't take a rocket scientist to recognize the explosion of video games, some of the newer entrants and business models haven't quite made a whole lot of sense to me. So, I brought on Hermann, who has 20+ years experience working and investing in the gaming industry, to cure me of my old man syndrome, and hopefully help all of us better understand how to think about investing in this space.
