About Mark Horneff
Mark Horneff, has over 20 years of experience within the games and tech industries working with SEGA and Sony. As CEO of Kuato Studios, Mark’s philosophy of perfecting the balance between gameplay and learning has solidified the studios passion for supporting children and parents to learn within environments they are already familiar with. At Kuato Studios, Mark has created games that encourage essential learning skills for children such as literacy and vocabulary development.
Growing up with dyslexia, Mark initially found reading difficult and challenging, until the discovery of comic books ignited an enthusiasm for reading in a way that formal learning never had. This formative experience has driven his passion and ultimately the Kuato mission – to help young people learn in a way that is fun, educational and engaging. During his tenure, Mark has partnered with Marvel, Disney, DreamWorks and ITV and used patented technology to improve the learning experience.
