About

Malte Barth spent over 20 years as an operator in media, games, and esports, including serving as Head of Esports at Modern Times Group, before becoming a VC at BITKRAFT Ventures. He was one of the earliest specialist VCs to frame esports and game platforms as virtual worlds and synthetic realities, consistently viewing games as the foundational layer for new digital economies and social infrastructure rather than just entertainment.
