llkka Paananen – The “World’s Least Powerful CEO” Who Built a Gaming Empire 🔥 Who he is: Most people have no idea who Ilkka Paananen is. But they’ve definitely played his games: Clash of Clans Clash Royale Boom Beach Brawl Stars And now Squad Busters He’s the co-founder and CEO of Supercell, the Finnish gaming studio that changed mobile gaming forever. Built Supercell in Helsinki—not Silicon Valley. Introduced a “cell” structure: small, independent teams with full ownership. Says he’s the “least powerful CEO in the world”—because his team makes the calls. Sold majority stake to Tencent for $8.6 billion, but still stayed in control. Refused to mass-produce games—only launched what teams loved building. Killed more games than they shipped. Quality > Quantity. Supercell’s games are played by over a billion people, each title earns hundreds of millions in revenue annually Changed mobile gaming from “casual fluff” to competitive esports & community Pioneered the “games as a service” model: updates, events, and evolving gameplay Influenced how every mobile game studio operates today Humble, quiet, builder-first Obsessive about culture > control Once said: > “The best teams make the best games. My job is to protect those teams.” While other CEOs chase headlines, Ilkka built a $10B+ gaming empire… by giving up control. The world plays his games. But only the sharp ones know his name.
