Survios Cofounders Featured in Forbes’ 30 Under 30

Survios is thrilled to announce that two of its cofounders and current executives have been recognized in Forbes’ 2017 30 Under 30 list! The annual review spotlights young professionals making waves in a variety of industries, and CCO James Iliff and CTO Alex Silkin are both featured for their joint contributions to the VR revolution.

We’re stoked that our founders have been recognized for their work amongst young visionaries such as Markiplier, Stanislav Vishnevskiy (cofounder of Discord), Lester Chen (YouTube’s eSports head), and many other deserving names.

From their early days in Project Holodeck developing their philosophy and vision for virtual reality, to founding one of the first VR-exclusive development studios, to creating and launching the active VR first-person shooter Raw Data to critical acclaim and record-breaking sales, Iliff’s and Silkin’s combined creative and technological muscle have established Survios as the burgeoning entertainment medium’s first must-play content powerhouse.
