Worldwide Creative Director at Epic Games
"Working with Peter on bringing the worlds of John Wick and Fortnite together was such an incredible experience. We had so much fun, and the love we have for these worlds really shined through, and fans really loved it. He and his team understand that gaming and other media can tell exciting, immersive stories when used together in authentic ways. I can't wait to collaborate with Peter and his team at Griffin in the future."
"I am grateful for the support I’ve received from the Griffin team throughout my career across finance and video games. I’ve worked with Phil for the past 15 years, first as a fellow VC in games, and more recently as a lead investor and board member for Phoenix Labs. He was an invaluable supporter, and a true believer in our mission and team. He was instrumental in helping us navigate fundraising and strategic discussion. Nick was our advisor throughout our M&A process and was a pillar of support and wisdom as we navigated the process. They’ve built a unique team that I look forward to supporting and working with again."

Aaron 'Noxy' Donaghey
CEO Hypixel Studios Inc.
"Signing up with Peter Levin and GGP was like having the coach in your corner that you didn’t know you needed . Not only was Peter amicable and deeply knowledgeable in the field, he was also the first to pick up the phone, be the megaphone to celebrate the good times, the one who had the most time to talk through a problem space. After our exit I very much hope to work with Peter again at some point in the future. I’d recommend signing up with him in a half heartbeat."
"In the general partners, the company has the VC experience of Sanderson, the operating and entrepreneurial background of Levin, and the strategic market and deal flow insight of Tuosto. Jam City CEO Chris DeWolfe referred to them as the “dream team of game venture capital.”"

"Griffin Gaming Partners is a fund that you can be completely honest with, whether speaking on metrics, roadmap, or exit strategy, and that is a luxury in this day and age. Their overall knowledge of the gaming space is second to none and will be integral to our growth. Very excited to be working with GGP."
“Due to Griffin’s expertise in gaming, they were able to recognize the virtues of our business immediately and remove all the friction in our fundraising. Their ability to anticipate market developments, coupled with their candid and actionable feedback, make us deeply excited about the future of our partnership... Their ability to help us go after choice intellectual properties for a platform like ours is unique in the industry when the worlds of gaming and other forms of media are colliding."
