Benjamin Carcich
Build Better Games co-host / Producer
Benjamin Carcich started his career as a military officer before shifting into game dev at Riot Games working on League of Legends. He spent over 8 years there, starting in associate production roles and eventually advancing to director roles. He left Riot to start a consultancy in 2020, realizing that his ability to change the industry through better leadership would be best realized independently. He’s been supporting individual producers, game studios, and publishers ever since.
Ben spent time on League of Legends post-launch (2011-2017) and was on VALORANT while it was in R&D. Ben is a certified co-active coach and official ICAgile trainer. He’s been teaching concepts around Agility, Production, and Game Development Leadership since 2015. He co-hosts the Building Better Games podcast and newsletter and has spoken at multiple events including GDC 2024.
