Northify, Sweden’s leading specialist in game testing and quality assurance for the games industry, is proud to announce a major strategic addition to its team. Renowned games industry figure Fredrik Malmberg is joining the company as both investor and member of the board.
Fredrik Malmberg is one of the most influential and experienced names in the history of Swedish gaming. He was a founding member of the legendary Target Games, which later evolved into Paradox Interactive—now one of Europe’s most successful game publishers. With decades of experience in development, publishing, and business strategy, Malmberg brings invaluable expertise to Northify’s next phase of growth.
"Quality assurance has become a crucial part of modern game development, especially as games grow in complexity and scope. Northify has carved out a unique position with a strong team, and I see great potential in helping develop the company further," says Fredrik Malmberg.
Northify was founded with the mission to provide tailored QA services to game studios across the Nordic region and beyond. The company has quickly built a strong reputation as a reliable partner for both indie studios and established developers. With Malmberg on the board, Northify is now aiming to scale operations and expand its market presence.
"Having Fredrik join us as both investor and board member is a major validation of what we’re building. His strategic vision and industry insight will be an incredible asset as we move forward," says Mattias Bergqvist, CEO of Northify.
With this powerful addition, Northify is accelerating its mission to become the leading QA partner for studios across the Nordics—and beyond.
