forecast to reach US$9.2 billion growing at ~6 % CAGR by 2033.1

to ensure we have a market leading mobile gaming subscription product when we launch
via our Telco partners in November. V-Hunt’s catalogue of games has proven commercial
success with blue chip Telco partners in developed gaming markets globally, making them
a perfect addition to our premium gaming titles announced in August.”
