Marcin Iwiński
CD Projekt Red
Videogame aficionado. Co-founder of CD PROJEKT, which he established (together with Michał Kiciński) soon after graduating from high school. By offering top-quality Polish localizations of foreign videogames the company revolutionized the domestic videogame publishing market. Professional experience gained at this stage enabled Iwiński to play a key role in the establishment of CD PROJEKT RED - the development studio behind The Witcher series. In recent years CD PROJEKT RED has become a key player in the international gamedev community, with its most recent product - The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - selling a spectacular 6 million copies within six weeks of release. In 2008 Iwiński founded the GOG.com digital videogame distribution platform which has since gained respect among players by offering games free of infamous digital DRM protection measures. GOG.com currently ranks among the world's foremost digital distribution platforms.
