The Human Edge
The Granddaddy of Gaming - Andy Payne OBE
Andy Payne is without doubt one of the pre-eminent figures in the UK's video games industry.
A 40 year (and counting career) has seen him, among many other things, run Mastertronic from 1988 – 2015, chaired trade body Ukie from 2005-2015, founded games industry charity, GamesAid, mobile and tablet specialist AppyNation, and Good Shepherd, which is the world’s first equity based crowdfunding platform for games and movies.
Andy also founded simulation specialists Just Flight, where he is now CEO and a VP of games charity, Special Effect. He is also chair of The British Esports Federation and was a board adviser to the world’s biggest esports company, ESL until that company was sold in 2022.
You'd have thought we would predominantly talk about video games, but as I say in my intro to the conversation, we talk about so much more! If you're interested in Andy's views on leadership, how to create a great company culture, economics, law and regulation and his entrepreneurial journey (and more), please have a listen, Andy's an entertaining guest!
