Marmalade appoints former EA exec as new MD and COO

Ex-Harry Potter head plans to work some magic for cross-platform app service.

Mobile app development service, Marmalade, enables cross-platform app and games production across smartphones, tablets, and connected devices.

The firm has now appointed Harvey Elliott as its new managing director and chief operating officer – effective immediately – as he joins from EA Games, where he acted as VP and GM, across titles including the Harry Potter series.

Elliot, said: "I am delighted to join Marmalade at a pivotal moment for the app economy. By embracing cross-platform development, Marmalade is democratising the innovation of app developers and unleashing creativity.

"Developers must be able to spread apps and games cross-platform without compromising performance. It is clear that the Marmalade technology provides an extremely valuable solution to all mobile, game and app developers and I am excited about building its reach around the world."
