Ravinder "Ray" Sharma[1] is the founder and CEO of XMG Studio, a mobile games studio in Toronto, Canada.[2][3] Sharma is a co-founder of Extreme Venture Partners and sits on the board of the Ontario Judicial Council,[4] the body that investigates complaints made by the public against provincially-appointed judges and masters in Ontario.

Sharma has spoken at mobile industry events in both Canada and the United States such as: CTIA – The Wireless Association,[5] and Interactive Ontario's iP3 Forum.[6] Sharma was the keynote speaker for the Scotia Capital Application Developer's Conference in 2012[7].

Sharma believes that Toronto is ideally situated to be a global digital media hub as a result of the convergence of three factors. "Number one, you've got a new generation of startup thats very low cost. Number two, you've got availability of universities that are world class... and the third thing is that there are government funding programs that are unique to Canada, government funding programs that allow companies to execute very rapidly into this space..."[8]

Sharma has been a guest author for Pocket Gamer.[9]

Early career

Sharma's career started out in the investment banking industry where he was an analyst focused mainly on wireless-related technology companies.[6][10] Sharma worked at Canadian and global investment banking firms, including Credit Suisse First Boston, BMO Nesbitt Burns and GMP Securities.[11]
