The Grand Masters at Kings of Games raise money for Chess Universe

Kings of Games, a startup that two chess Grand Masters created, has raised a funding round for its Chess Universe game.

The Ljubljana, Slovenia-based company is taking advantage of a popular movement that has made chess cool again. The chess Grand Masters and entrepreneurs Duško Pavasović  (the CEO) and Luka Lenic (the chief operating officer) started the company last year with the goal of making chess accessible for everyone.
