19th March 2021: Nlife Media, the company behind websites such as Nintendo Life, Push Square and Pure Xbox, is pleased to announce that Rupert Loman has joined as Chairman.
Loman joins after a successful 20-year career in games media. He founded Eurogamer with his brother Nick in 1999 and was pivotal in establishing the site as one of the world’s leading authorities on all aspects of video gaming. Eurogamer’s parent company Gamer Network also ran sites such as Rock Paper Shotgun, GamesIndustry.biz and VG247, and popular gaming conventions such as EGX and Rezzed.
Gamer Network was acquired by ReedPop, the company behind live gaming events such as PAX, in 2018. Loman left ReedPop at the start of 2020 to focus on helping early-stage businesses and entrepreneurs with advice, investment or both.
ReedPop has a long-standing commercial partnership with Nlife Media. “It's been almost 10 years since we first met Rupert and signed our agreement with him to represent our websites’ advertising interests,” says Anthony Dickens, Nlife Media Managing Director.
“Ever since that initial meeting, Rupert has shown a great understanding of our journey and offered useful advice many, many times along the way. We've always kept in close touch – even after he departed the company he founded following the sale to ReedPop – and he has continued to offer invaluable help and advice whenever we needed it.”
“Nlife Media has grown substantially in the last few years and the time is right to bring on more games media experience in order to position the company for even greater future success.”
