History and Development

Sea Limited was founded under the name Garena, initially focused on the online gaming market. The company gained early traction by publishing and distributing popular online games in Asian markets.

Growth accelerated with the launch of Free Fire, which became one of the most widely downloaded mobile games globally and significantly expanded the company’s user base.

As the company diversified beyond gaming, it launched Shopee, which rapidly grew into a major e-commerce platform across Southeast Asia and Taiwan. The expansion of digital commerce later led to the development of SeaMoney, integrating financial services into the company’s digital ecosystem.

Over time, Sea expanded its international presence, particularly in Latin America, investing in logistics, payments infrastructure, and platform development.

Today, Sea operates as a diversified digital platform company focused on e-commerce, gaming, and financial technology in emerging markets.
