Zynga has announced that they have acquired studio number 15 in Five Mobile. This will be the first studio that the Facebook gaming company has acquired since it announced its IPO plans.
Five Mobile, now Zynga Toronto, creates compelling, robust and scalable mobile applications, said Zynga in their blog. The team has worked closely with some of the largest media and technology companies in North America across a multitude of platforms and handsets. This talented group will focus on advancing multiple initiatives within Zynga mobile. Mobile industry veterans and Five Mobile founders Ameet Shah, Jeff Zakrzewski, Oliver Tabay, and Troy Hubman will all join the Zynga team. Ameet Shah will head up our Zynga Toronto studio and report up through our Zynga mobile team, led by David Ko. As a key component of our mobile efforts moving forward, Zynga Toronto will help position us in a hotbed of mobile development talent.
