Brazilian gaming and lifestyle company Final Level<\/strong> has announced the acquisition of design, video and production studio madmonkey<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n\n

- Brazilian company Final Level raises \u00a31.14m<\/a><\/li>\n <\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n \n
Through the acquisition, Final Level Co. merges madmonkey’s 150 current projects and 50 clients. The studio’s former owners, Brunno ‘Gujo’ Portela<\/strong>, Raphael ‘PDN’ Freitas<\/strong> and Ge Alves<\/strong>, will assume the roles of Creative Strategy and Products<\/strong>, Director of Operations<\/strong> and Broadcast Operations<\/strong> for Final Level, respectively.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\n \nBoth Portela and Freitas had already filled positions in Final Level prior to the merger, parallel to their roles in madmonkey. The studio’s brand will be kept due to its reputation in the local scene. Moreover, Alves will act as its COO while it functions within Final Level’s structure.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\n \nThis is Final Level’s second acquisition this year as the company continues its aggressive expansion in gaming, entertainment and esports. The company, which owns the Brazilian organisation Gamelanders, also acquired the creation company Nice House in March. Thanks to such expansion, Final Level was able to triple its revenue since 2021.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n
