SPACE, the commerce level of the metaverse virtual world, has unveiled a team of new hires to forge the next round of SPACE’s growth and development. The new hires are joining a team that’s attracted 15,000+ users, in less than 8 weeks, to their commerce metaverse.

The team, assembled from leading game developers and cryptocurrency payment providers, will develop and grow SPACE’s products and offerings, which include tools for metaverse users to construct their own virtual spaces like stores and other venues, complete with payment processing.

The hires include Chance Glasco, a co-founder of Call of Duty, who will be responsible for product strategy, Felix Mago, who previously served as the co-founder of NEXT will fill the position of Blockchain lead, and finally Antonio Molina, SPACE’s new product lead from CD Projekt RED who leverages his extensive experiences in the game development and production fields.

SPACE plans on growing the team five times to keep its current growth rate and to capitalize upon the significant monetization opportunities in the metaverse’s rapidly developing metaverse. Top gaming industry executives highlight how gaming and commerce are increasingly converged in virtual worlds. The new team, which includes their blockchain and product experiences, will be incorporated into SPACE’s product development process.

Commenting on the latest hiring spree, SPACE founder and CEO Batis Samadian notes, “SPACE was started by a group that brought together experience from top VR, crypto, and e-commerce projects. This strong team, and 360* experience, allowed us to ship products and grow in just 6 months. This gives us the opportunity to recruit the next generation of talented team members. The addition of key players with past experience at Call of Duty, Dash NEXT, and CD Projekt Red is a huge plus. We expect to have more big team announcements in the coming months.”

The latest move to acquire more top talent follows the successful completion of other significant milestones in SPACE’s roadmap, notably the rollout of the Early Access Alpha version to more than 10,000 users and 100s of new partnerships. The team also recently secured a funding round of $7 million from a group of investors including Animoca Brands.
