Mike Verdu

In his current role, Mike is focused on bringing great games to Netflix members since Netflix started providing games as part of members’ subscriptions in Nov 2021. That means working with internal studios and external developers to create and deliver games in a variety of genres that can be enjoyed by Netflix members around the world.

Most recently, Mike served as Vice President of Content for Facebook Reality Labs (now Meta), overseeing Oculus Studios as well as the teams bringing second and third party AR/VR games and apps to Oculus VR headsets including Oculus Quest and Quest II. Prior to Facebook, Mike worked at large and small companies, in roles ranging from game production to running studio organizations to overseeing large businesses. Mike ran most of EA's mobile gaming studios as SVP, EA Mobile, and was President of Studios at Kabam after joining that company through the acquisition of his mobile game start-up TapZen. He was also Chief Creative Officer and Co-President of Games for Zynga, after leading EA's Los Angeles Studio working on RTS and FPS games.
