Eurogamer appoints Greg Ingham as Chairman

Brighton, England, May 22, 2007: Leading independent videogame website publisher Eurogamer Network today announces that it has appointed erstwhile Future CEO Greg Ingham to the newly created role of Chairman.

The move comes after Ingham has spent six months as Strategic Adviser to the fast-growing company. And it follows a busy period for Eurogamer which has seen it successfully launch its social networking site, Eurogamers, as well as launch Joint Ventures in France and Germany. The company has also just taken on its first employee in the US.

Commenting on the appointment, Eurogamer's founder and Managing Director Rupert Loman said, "We have ambitious long-term plans for Eurogamer. We're in a strong position with both our consumer and trade websites and Greg's experience will be really helpful to aid our growth."

Ingham added, "I've been impressed for a long time with Eurogamer. Having had a thorough look-see at the company as an adviser in the past few months, I'm yet more impressed. I'm convinced that it has a compelling growth story.

"It's a clever business that has remained true to its editorial roots - and that is what has underpinned its increasing international success. High quality, cut-through editorial backed by increasing, market-leading scale is an attractive proposition."

Eurogamer.net has an ABCE audited audience of 1,317,522 monthly unique users.
