With major sports events canceled and the audience shifting their view on different matters, the sports betting industry is suffering. However, eSports is gaining popularity and it seems that a major shift is starting.
It seems like eSports have come from virtually nowhere and become a global sensation. The idea of competitive gaming began to gain traction in 2012 but its popularity has skyrocketed by 2020.
As technology progresses and computer games become even more immersive and demanding, the industry is set to grow exponentially. With its rapid progression up to this point, it now doesn’t seem out of the question to think whether the eSports sector could overtake the traditional sports industry by the end of the decade.
The panel discussion will be joined by Cédric Schlosser (Board Member of the Swiss eSports Federation), Peter Ivanov (Head of eSports & Sports Trading at UltraPlay), Pavol Krasnovský (Co-Founder and CEO at RTSmunity), Maximilian von Portatius (Co-Founder and Managing Director of SPONSOR.ONLINE) and Stepan Shlulga (Head of eSports/Head of UFC and US Sports at Parimatch), and will be moderated by Tiago Aprigio (CEO at All-in Global).
As mentioned above the virtual edition of #MBGS2020VE will be held on the 7th of May and will gather 300 gambling industry professionals who can attend virtually from their internet browser. The gathering will allow virtual delegates to network at virtual tables in the virtual deal room and conduct 1 on 1 meetings with their prospects/clients/partners.
The conference will start at 9:30 AM CET on the 7th of May and the participants will gain access to the platform on 23 April.
