About Yodo1
After two-plus decades of helping companies like Microsoft build businesses in strategic regions, James LaLonde and Henry Fong got together over a shared love of gaming to set their sights on a new challenge. In 2011, Yodo1 was born to help indie studios and solo developers simplify the long, complex process of scaling mobile games and make it easy to unlock rapidly-growing markets.
