Rise of Fearless raises $1m to expand its gaming platform

UAE-based mobile gaming platform Rise of Fearless has raised $1 million from Epic Edges Capital through a Simple Agreement for Future Equity (SAFE), moving away from its original $700,000 funding target. The new investment will help Rise of Fearless strengthen its team, improve its technology and infrastructure, and expand its marketing and community-building efforts. Last year, the company had revealed it was launching a $700,000 fundraising goal but continued to bootstrap the project while looking for an investment partner.
