Business Development

Jason joined Riot Games and finally moved to the left coast after living on the east coast all of his life. Jason most recently worked at Riot's New York-based VC FirstMark Capital as an Associate focusing on the digital media and Internet space. After spending a few years discovering and supporting entrepreneurs on the investment side, Jason decided to shed the suit in favor of tshirt & jeans and experience the startup world firsthand. He is very excited to join the team at Riot to help the company achieve first US and later Global domination.

When not helping Riot make moar moneys or expand into new markets, Jason can either be found snowboarding or at music festivals around the country.

Channeling his at-best mediocre Chinese language skills, Jason maintains general order and keeps Riot out of troublesome situations when preparing League of Legends for China domination.

Nicolo hails from France, although it has been awhile since he has lived there given a very international career. His role at Riot is make sure all players around the world can access, play and enjoy League of Legends under the best conditions. Before joining Riot, Nicolo lived in Ireland where he was in charge of licensing online games for GOA, the online gaming subsidiary of France Telecom / Orange, one of the leading publishers in Europe. As a life-long fan of online games, Nicolo was an early believer in the games-as-a-service model and spent significant time in Korea "studying the market" (read: playing games) in an effort to help Western "core" games become more online-focused. When he's not playing games, Nicolo loves outdoor activities and schooling Americans at "football" (read: soccer).

When Nicolo needs to travel, he activates Jet-Lag immunity. He is able to visit 10+ countries on three different continents in couple of weeks, without being slowed down by Jet-Lag. Unfortunately, Jet-Lag Immunity reduces his attention stats by 75% which often results in the loss of items or components including sunglasses, business cards, toothbrushes, and occasionally legendary items such as his passport.
