This week on The Exit: Suleman “Suli” Ali was introduced to the world of business M&A when he was just eight years old helping his father find and buy their family's first business. However, it wasn't until years later into his early 20s and his first job at Microsoft that he determined that corporate life was not for him and he answered his calling to a life of entrepreneurship. During this time, the Facebook app marketplace was in its early stages and he went all in on becoming a leader in the Facebook app space. He and his team would go on to build and exit two mobile gaming businesses, Esgut (acquired by SGN) and then TinyCo (acquired by Jam City). Two exits and decades of experience later in building both bootstrapped and VC-backed businesses, he emphasizes the importance of building businesses that will continue to perform through increased competition and marketing costs. Through it all, he hopes business owners will do what he wishes he did for himself: to enjoy the journey as you're building and growing the business, and not just at the exit. For more details and insights from his entrepreneurial journey, listen to the latest episode of The Exit. Suli Ali is a serial investor and entrepreneur who has started and sold 2 startups with Esgut being acquired by SGN, and TinyCo being acquired by Jam City. Suli has been an angel investor in over 100 startups and LP in 25+ venture capital funds. Through Ali Capital, along with his brother Moiz, Suli has a passion for investing with founders who see a future that few others can see.

At last week's Snap Partner Summit, a number of announcements -- including a navigation redesign and Bitmoji for Games -- have broader implications for the gaming industry and beyond. Especially when such messaging games, built on HTML5 and "mini programs" or apps-within-apps (as discussed by Connie Chan in context of WeChat and more), merge the key trends of mobile, social, and cloud gaming; in fact, they:could be a serious contender in the "cloud gaming" wars, but coming at it from the low end of the market (as in classic disruption theory);have inherent multiplayer virality, thanks to the original social network/ social graph of one's phone book;are not only built social-first (e.g., not as an afterthought to gameplay), but can incorporate personal expression through avatars and identity across games; andcould layer on maps as social networks and AR filters (and marketplaces) as other ways to extend gaming and monetization.We break it all down in this week's episode of 16 Minutes on the News with a16z consumer partners on gaming Jonathan Lai (formerly head of BD for Tencent North America and former product manager at Riot Games) and Andrew Green (who worked at Take-Two Interactive, Atari, Electronic Arts, and TinyCo) in conversation with host Sonal Chokshi... what do such announcements-as-news tell us about where we are and where we're going on the long arc of innovation?This week, we have two separate episodes of 16 Minutes, both about gaming -- but based on very different news  -- be sure to also check out the other episode, on the first videogame approved by the FDA as a prescription medicine for ADHD. related headlines/ background reading:"Snapchat redesigns its app with new action bar", TechCrunch June 2020, @RomainDillet"Snap lets you play as your Bitmoji in third-party games", TechCrunch June 2020, @RomainDilleton "mini programs": what they are, how they work in WeChat / examples 2017-2019 by @ConnieChanon Google Maps as social network and more 2018 @eugenewei

She is best known for her work at TinyCo, where she led the design of Family Guy: The Quest for Stuff, and for her community efforts organizing the Queerness and Games Conference, the Global Game Jam in San Francisco, student workshops, and more.

Late in 2013 Roy Smith, founder of AgeCheq, helped us understand the implications that COPPA is going to have on the mobile app industry. COPPA is the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act and we've all been waiting for something to happen - for the FTC to find and fine the first infractor. Roy promised to come back and explain the findings when this actually happened and, just this past month, the FTC levied fines on two companies - Yelp and TinyCo - for COPPA-related violations.   Roy held up his end of the bargain and here is that conversation. We talk about the infractions against the two companies, the implications on both Yelp and TinyCo and our industry as well as a list of 5 tips to ensure you are - and remain - COPPA-compliant.    Full show notes can be found here:
