Indie games service provider Room 8 has hired Eric Williams as its new senior director of business development.
In his new role, Williams will be responsible for managing developer and publisher relations, whilst also implementing business strategies.
As such, he will be tasked with forming new relationships, as well as looking at various business opportunities for Room 8 Studio and Dragon’s Lake across the Americas.
