Greg Richardson has been given the reigns of CEO of VG Holdings, the operating company for BioWare/Pandemic, after his boss, John Riccitiello, left the company to takeover as CEO for Electronic Arts (like they will ever make it).
"The BioWare/Pandemic alliance broke new ground with two of the top independent game studios coming together to collaborate on creative ideas and cutting edge technologies while supporting distinctive cultures and strengths," said Roger McNamee, MD and co-founder of Elevation Partners.
"A catalyst in the creation of this unique venture, Greg is the natural choice to work with the BioWare/Pandemic executives as they come to create award-winning titles and expand their talent base."
Richardson has been a high ranking executive since the formation of the partnership, most recently holding the position of vice president of commercial operations. Currently the team at BioWare/Pandemic have a few AAA titles in the works, including Mercenaries 2: World in Flames.
