Why new investment house Denmu has $50m to give to "auteur" developers (opens in new tab)

Denmu is a new investment firm with $50 million to play with. The organisation was founded in 2025 by general partners Ryan You and Michael Fan, who act as the firm's CEO and creative director, respectively. Both coming from an investment background, including some shared time at VC firm Galaxy Interactive, they felt that the financial options available to developers weren't right for every project.
