About Kikizo

Kikizo works with the biggest names in games to deliver an essential destination with passion and style.

Kikizo has punched above its weight since 1998, and is still passionate about gaming after a decade of coverage.

Kikizo obsessively brings the industry's biggest names and brands into gamers' homes with market leading interviews and breaking news from the frontline. (For example, it is currently the only consumer gaming site in the world to have sat down with all three platforms' global bosses: Satoru Iwata, Kaz Hirai & Robbie Bach).

It was one of the first sites to take the Japanese market seriously, developing relationships in the nineties that continue to produce some of the most exclusive access in the territory today. (For example, the only interview Sega's legendary Yu Suzuki has done with any western media in the last five years).

It was one of the original pioneers of serious video content for gamers, providing unrivalled quality (60fps, high bitrate) before others even though about doing video.

Kikizo reaches a combined audience of over two million enthusiast and casual gamers per month (Hitslink, comScore Aug 07) across Kikizo.com and a mix syndication partners including AOL, for a product that's as beneficial to game publishers as it is to gamers.

Based in London's Leicester Square, Kikizo Ltd has separate sales offices in Holborn, London and Los Angeles, CA.

Kikizo's selling points include:

• Most exclusive interview access in the video games industry.
• Honest and consistent reviews of the games that matter.
• Original reporting on hot upcoming games and other features.
• Unrivalled heritage for high quality video features (relaunching soon).
• Twelve years' veteran experience in publishing games information.

Management


Kikizo Ltd was founded by Adam Doree. After starting in publishing in 1996, in 2000 Adam raised £1m venture capital from Durlacher PLC (now Panmure Gordon) to expand Gamerweb Ltd, a web business he founded in 1998. After the sale of Gamerweb to Telecoms TV in 2002, Adam helped to integrate its operation for one year before launching Kikizo in 2003, and today brings a twelve-year network of contacts and clients from the interactive entertainment industry and related media sectors.
