General Partner, GFR Fund

About

Yasushi Komori spent seven years as a mobile games product manager with P&L responsibility for titles generating $1M+ monthly revenue before transitioning to venture investing in VR and gaming in 2016, giving him unusually deep operator experience for a VC. He focuses on investing in gaming infrastructure and tools that support indie developers rather than the studios themselves, and emphasizes Discord community size and engagement as a key metric for evaluating early-stage game companies.
