Daniel Hjelmtorp’s Summary

My name is Daniel Hjelmtorp and works today as Partner & Product Manager at Gamersgate. My two main work tasks today are partner contact and drive traffic to the site.

My spare time is devoted to play games and read books, news. The fields of my interest in my reading are games, online and traditional marketing, new technologies and the media. Areas I spend much time to think, reflect and blogs about, in English. Since a young age I’ve played much computer and video games, and still do. In recent years, I’ve spent more time reading and writing about the game rather than playing. I daily visit the big game after the news and events in the industry. To keep me updated on the latest news, events and releases is very important for me.

I am a young, cheerful and outgoing person who is constantly looking for new opportunities. To continuously develop and push myself, the people around me and the company I work for forward is a must for me. I would classify myself as a perfectionist who wants control. Have a curiosity for new trends and technologies in the web and game industry, and the opportunities they open up.
