WeGame2, a female-founded global gaming consultancy established in 2023 has announced a strategic partnership with iion, the first-ever unified game advertising platform. This collaboration will “help to redefine the landscape of gaming advertising” by offering comprehensive ad solutions to brands and agencies throughout the UK and EU according to WeGame2.
