Hi, I’m Jonah Eskin, a startup founder, engineer and retro gaming enthusiast. I started this website to do crucial networking activities and get my name out there in the world of Silicon Valley and Venture Capital, since I currently have no direct personal connections to that network. I wanted to share insights from my 11 years of experience working in and around the Retro gaming industry, and build connections while educating those who are unaware about the incredible opportunities and commercial viability of exploring the Retro gaming industry.
Additionally, by educating potential investors and others on the hidden gem of the Retro gaming industry, I increase the chances that my own Retro gaming startup may potentially get funded, which I think would be a significant step for myself, investors writ large, and my colleagues in Retro gaming communities, who are brilliant and ambitious entrepreneurs, but thus far have assumed investors would never be interested them.
The entrepreneureal and life journey that has brought me to this moment of creating this website and blog has been an incredibly complex, winding journey from the time I first decided I wanted to be an entrepreneur nearly 12 years ago. Without going into too many details, I’ve experienced high highs and low lows, but I have gained an incredible amount of experience and knowledge in a relatively short amount of time. After starting 4 businesses over the course of 12 years, some being complete failures, some with glimpses of miraculous success, as well as tens of thousands of hours of self study and engagement with the Retro gaming industry, I think my 5th attempt at starting a business, is going incredibly well so far.
Please feel free to message me on LinkedIn for any inquiries into potential collaborations, partnerships, or general questions about the Retro gaming industry.
Thanks for taking the time to read this.
