Incredibuild gives developers back precious time by accelerating build compilation," said Cherry Freeman , Co-Founding Partner at Hiro Capital. "Amazing games companies like Tencent , Take Two, EA, Konami, Nintendo, Capcom, and WB Games are already reaping the benefits of Incredibuild and our hope is that more companies will discover and take advantage of their brilliant technology. As always, Games are the cutting edge for technological advancement, and we envisage a future where Incredibuild will be the de facto distributed supercomputer on every machine in every company. This journey also marks Hiro's first investment in Israel , a country with a phenomenal technology track record, where we hope this is just the first of many future investments."

"Enterprises are under unprecedented pressure to expedite the release of high-quality applications, to get to market faster with less overhead," said Tami Mazel Shachar , CEO of Incredibuild.
