GameFlo CEO Chi Nwogu: Trading Screen Time with Inclusive Card Games | Entrepreneur Journey

Chi Nwogu is the Co-Founder & CEO of GameFlo - a community-based gaming company creating wholesome ways to connect. GameFlo is on a mission to provide healthier alternatives to screen time while nurturing imagination and making learning fun! The company designs culturally-relevant games and experiences for people of all backgrounds.

With a focus on pre-teens and teenagers, GameFlo went through various testing phases, working in tandem with these age groups. What Chi and his team soon discovered was that their game needed to feel like fun, not learning. With that in mind and a desire to create games that can inspire and ultimately change the world, Chi and his team designed their flagship card game, PICKUP, to have characters with different ethnic backgrounds, abilities, and gender identities so that anyone who played felt included.

GameFlo currently offers PICKUP Basketball and will soon launch PICKUP Soccer. A comic version of PICKUP Basketball will be released this year and a digital version of the game is in development as well!
