These enable Chillingo to identify and animate an innovative and dynamic international network of independent developers producing some of the best games on the market. This acquisition will combine Chillingo’s expertise in publishing independent developers with the power and reach of EA mobile.” comments François Carlot, Principal with LD&A.
