One Earth Rising™ Continues to Show Momentum and Traction by Revealing an Investment to Scale Operations with Adit Ventures
One Earth Rising P.B.C., a video game development and entertainment company bridging the gap between great immersive experiences and raising people’s awareness of social issues, announces Adit Ventures will lead their current financing round. Adit Ventures is a leading venture capital investment firm based in New York City, investing in prominent private companies. The investment with One Earth Rising will expand the ability for raising awareness and revenues for social issues by incorporating them into games and livestreams, activating millions of gamers around the globe.
One Earth Rising’s for-profit approach positions it to be a fast-scaling Social Impact Gaming™ company; Since launching its first video game Paraiso Island in March 2019 and garnering over 1,000,000 downloads with zero marketing investment, this evolved into adding in-game content and generating revenue in over 69 countries. One Earth Rising has established meaningful partnerships including the United Nations and SAP. “Companies this savvy are riding ahead of the wave and will ultimately be category defining,” says Adit Board Advisor Tim Ringel.
“In a $152.1 Billion market with 9.6% growth and 2.5 billion gamers, One Earth Rising’s focus on creating mass products vs niche products confluences the two worlds of social impact and revenue driven industries resulting in enormous potential and value.”
“Mission, purpose and profit is any organization’s trifecta. One Earth Rising’s ethos focuses on great and engaging gameplay incorporating playful social purpose. We call this a Playful Path to Social Impact,” says One Earth Rising co-founder and CEO Jan Roessner.
“We accomplish this by identifying communities and their needs, developing relevant experiences and partnerships. We aim to be the momentum of effective change and start a new era with the gaming industry by encouraging everyone to play well, play fair and play kind.”
One Earth Rising co-founders are Jan Roessner and Beryl Basham alongside CMO Justin Bovington and CFO Ralph Welsch.
