Serious Business

edit

Serious Business is a developer and producer of social games. The company was co-founded by Siqi Chen and Alex Le in early 2008 to develop games that take advantage of the rich social context of social network platforms.

Serious Business launched one of the first ever games on Facebook–Friends For Sale–which continues to top the Top 25 Games List and is one of the three first social games on the Facebook platform.
