Company Name Address Tel Fax CEO Name Marketing Contact Website Company Description Gamefederation, founded in March 2000, is an international company with its headquarters in Stockholm, Sweden. The company’s technology is pioneering the new era of connected mobile gaming centred around community-based interaction and the multiplayer gaming experience. GEX, a server-based middleware platform, that provides connected services for mobile games and other mobile applications.

In addition, GEX makes it possible for these companies to employ a revenue-generating subscription model for mobile online game services. By developing games that are compatible with the GEX platform, game developers can offer engaging interactivity across a variety of client platforms. Opportunities include crafting games for tournament play, access to high score lists and player histories, and download of add-on resources.

Products & News GEX Publisher Edition. At E3 in Los Angeles, GEX 5.0 – publisher edition will be launched. GEX 5.0 introduces a new self aware API. Games distributed from a GEX server are personalized during the download process. However, many distribution points are not GEX enabled so the new API is capable of auto registering at a central GEX server when this registration was not completed by the download server. This allows the publisher to include connected functionality in their games, without developing multiple versions. Connected functionality can also be disabled if desired. GEX 5.0 has been designed as a complete content management and distribution system. New dynamic phone attribute matching allows existing content to be automatically distributed to new devices without repackaging the content. Dhruva Interactive and Gamefederation have partnered to develop the worlds first true connected application. Cricket enthusiasts are now able to receive up to the minute ball by ball information on live cricket matches. This information is presented in graphical form on their mobile device. GEX not only enables the retrieval of the data, it also allows Dhruva to implant new distribution and payment models. GEX send2friend® and try4free® allow the user to try the application before purchase. GEX further allows the user to subscribe to a specific cricket event, or for a specific period after the trial period. GEX software now allows Samsung mobile to provide its customers with a true connected experience on its Samsung Fun Club portal. The service allows users to try games for tree, send games to friends, compete with friends, submit scores and much more. The service will shortly be available across Europe. In the last six months Gamefederation has also signed a number of contracts with industry leading companies such as Mobile Avenue, Gamebank, Lunarstorm, Tele2Comviq, Small Planet, Sunset Wireless, and Tilt.
