Howard Horowitz Bio
As a seasoned gaming executive and founder of Wha Entertainment Inc. and Got Game Entertainment, I bring decades of hands-on experience launching blockbuster video games and forging strategic partnerships with some of the world’s leading entertainment companies.
Early in my career, I was part of the pioneering team that launched Nintendo into the U.S. market, helping to redefine an industry many had written off after the fall of Atari. That historic effort not only introduced iconic characters and franchises but proved how innovation, timing, and market strategy could revive and transform the gaming landscape.
Throughout my journey, I’ve been instrumental in bringing Grand Theft Auto to the PC market, securing major entertainment licensing deals with Hollywood studios, and leading high-stakes negotiations that shaped the release of some of the most recognized titles in gaming history.
At Sierra On-Line, the leading PC game company of its era, I helped scale the business, managing production costs, global sales, and marketing. I later spearheaded the North American expansion of Codemasters, establishing its U.S. headquarters and driving growth as Vice President of Sales.
My career has been defined by a proven ability to identify breakout opportunities, secure powerful IP partnerships, and deliver AAA game experiences that resonate with players and investors alike. With deep expertise across development, publishing, and global business operations, I’ve consistently aligned creative vision with commercial success — collaborating with industry pioneers to produce games that became cultural milestones.
Today, Wha Entertainment continues that legacy — focused on developing, publishing, and partnering to deliver the next generation of blockbuster games to a global audience.
