Hearthstone CEO's M&A Strategy
Share
A story about how Twitch's CEO Emmett showed interest during M&A talks by not playing Hearthstone, his usual habit during meetings.
"During our first M&A conversation, I asked the corp dev guy after we got out of the meeting, 'How'd you think that went? I thought it was pretty good, what'd you think? Is he always like that?'
He goes, 'No. Half of these meetings he's just playing Hearthstone on his phone while he's talking. He put down his phone, he wasn't playing Hearthstone, so that was a good sign for you guys.'"
