Thanks to the new partnership, the monetary reward will also significantly increase. The prize fund will grow from £50,000 to £100,000, with the amount still being equally divided between the author of the work and its translator. Gabi Wood, the Executive Director of the Booker Prize Foundation, noted that the organization highly values the long-term support of the Bukhman Philanthropies and the personal contribution of Daria Bukhman to the development of translated literature. 41-year-old Dmitry Bukhman, along with his brother Igor, founded Playrix in the early 2000s. The entrepreneurs started their business in Vologda, and today the company's headquarters is located in Dublin. After 2022, Playrix ceased operations in Russia and remains one of the largest mobile game developers in the world. According to Forbes, Dmitry Bukhman's net worth is estimated to be around $13.6 billion.
