About
Unity Technologies is a San Francisco-based real-time 3D development platform — listed on NYSE (NYSE: U) — providing game developers, film studios, automotive engineers, and enterprise architects with the Unity Engine (one of the world's two dominant game engines alongside Unreal Engine), Unity Gaming Services, and the Unity Ads monetization network, used by 20+ million registered developers to create mobile games, PC and console titles, VR/AR experiences, architectural visualizations, and interactive automotive configurators. Founded in 2004 by David Helgason, Joachim Ante, and Nicholas Francis in Copenhagen and headquartered in San Francisco, Unity generated $1.81 billion in revenue in fiscal year 2024 as the company navigated one of the most turbulent periods in its corporate history — a controversial Runtime Fee pricing change announced in September 2023 that triggered massive developer backlash and was ultimately reversed, followed by the resignation of CEO John Riccitiello and appointment of Matt Bromberg as new CEO in 2024.

Part of Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL), Google Ad Manager serves as the infrastructure layer through which publishers sell their advertising inventory across programmatic and direct channels.
