Together, we offer truly integrated, end-to-end marketing and business development and deal-making services from a single source."MeetToMatch co-founder

Fedor van Herpen shared his view on the future:"Partnering with 1SP Agency allows MeetToMatch to scale faster, expand globally, and unlock new opportunities beyond the core games industry. For event organisers, this means greater reach, deeper connections, and increased business impact. With strong backing for continued platform development, the partnership ensures a robust, future-proof solution designed to foster meaningful business relationships. Together, we now have the financial means and development power and are building a true Swiss Army knife for doing business across the games and digital entertainment industries, and we are looking forward to announcing the next phase of the MeetToMatch platform soon."
