Multimillion-dollar E- ntertainment business: Moshi Monsters!

Moshi Monsters is one of the most popular online game in the UK .  Created by Michael Acton Smith, the 37-year-old founder of Shoreditch, England-based entertainment company Mind Candy.
"Started in 2008, Moshi Monsters is a children's game with a social networking element that allows users to adopt and care for their own pet monsters in a virtual world. Users pay a $6 monthly fee to play the game.
By February 2011, the site had amassed 35 million users worldwide. That number jumped to 50 million users last June".


The company counts today with over  100 employees and a product line that combines Moshi-branded toys, a magazine and a TV channel called Moshi TV.  Mind Candy' s purpose is massive.  The company  claims to have  generated more than $100 million in gross sales on all Moshi Monsters-related products last year.
