“We are excited to be part of this journey which will pave the path for many youngsters and gaming enthusiasts to pursue a career in the esports industry.

We would like to establish an ecosystem that nurtures all budding talents in this field and not just the esports athletes.

Esports is competing closely with traditional sports, garnering millions in revenue each year.

Gaming has evolved beyond a hobby for many and we believe the launch has come at an opportune time.

Given its accessibility and rising popularity, it will not be a surprise if
esports surpasses traditional sports in revenue in near future.”
