Chukong Technologies Raises $50M Series D Round

International Mobile Entertainment Company Expanding Offering for New and Established Developers

BEIJING – Oct. 18, 2013 – Leading international mobile entertainment company Chukong Technologies today announced it has secured $50 million in Series D funding led by New Horizon Capital, a leading China-focused private equity fund, with participation from existing investors GGV Capital, Sequoia Capital, Steamboat Ventures and Northern Light.

The company announced it was generating $12 million in monthly gross revenue this August, and the round brings its total funding to $83 million to date. Chukong Technologies will use the funding to expand its success in mobile game development, publishing and game engine development. The fund will also be used for R&D and marketing expense for developing a mobile entertainment platform.

“With the proliferation of smartphones across China and countries worldwide, we see a significant opportunity not only to publish polished games and entertainment content but also to provide tools for developers to access emerging mobile platforms and overcome challenges caused by device fragmentation,” said Haozhi Chen, CEO of Chukong Technologies. “There is a bigger play here than offering discrete mobile game experiences, and that’s what we’re going after.”

Commenting on the partnership with the New Horizon Capital-led consortium, Mr. Chen stated, “We welcome the continued support from our existing investors, as well as from New Horizon Capital. Their investment is a strong endorsement of our past achievements and great confidence in our future growth potentials. We look forward to building a more exciting chapter of Chukong Technologies with our strategic investors.”

With more than one billion sessions per month, 350 million activated downloads and 63 million monthly active users, Chukong Technologies is a clear leader in the mobile space.
