The name change reflects the studio's ongoing evolution into a multiplatform production company and content creator. The company is now divided into three divisions — Digital, Games, and Animation.

"At Relish, we're focused on creating characters and experiences that educate and entertain," says Paul Pattison , Founder and CEO of Relish Studios. "Be it apps, games, animated shorts, or full-length features, what's most important is that audiences connect with a great story and have fun along the way."

"Over the years, we've helped clients solve problems in many different ways; it has led us into digital, games, and animation. We've been doing so much more than just interactive the last few years — now the new name will reflect that."

Relish Studios will continue to be led by founders Paul Pattison and Sacha Raposo . Veteran producer Luke Carroll , who started last year as SVP Animation, continues to lead the growing animation division. Joining the leadership team as VP Digital + Games is well-known EdTech entrepreneur and digital transformer, Carrie Purcell .

"I know Relish because of their highly innovative work," notes Purcell, "but I joined because of the people. This is one of the most talented, smart, and creative groups I've had the pleasure to work with and I can't wait to bring my background in XR and blockchain to immersive and interactive projects together."

Relish has been experiencing consistent growth across all its divisions, with revenues increasing an average of ~40% annually for the last four years. Pattison attributes the steady growth to building trust and long-term partnerships with clients such as 9 Story Media Group, PBS Kids, Publishers Clearing House, Salesforce, Mattel, Nickelodeon, Loblaws, and Sesame Workshop.

Gill, who ignited the meme stock craze in 2021 and is known as Roaring Kitty on other platforms, posted a screenshot on Reddit's Superstonk subreddit that shows a purported US$175 million position in GameStop shares and call options.

Due to this legislation, regulated iGaming successfully displaced the unregulated market, according to Attorney General Doug Downey, creating over 1.6 million active player accounts across more than 70 operator websites as of April 2023 — just over one year following the change.

Ontario's regulation has also laid the groundwork for widespread change in the iGaming space across Canada. As iGaming continues to evolve, it's important to have a deeper understanding of both new and existing trends that will shape the industry's future, as well as regulations.
