26: The Future of the Esports Experience with Ryan Thompson

There’s nothing quite like the roar of a crowd. And for the longest time that has always gone hand-in-hand with traditional sports games. But in recent years, a new type of event has garnered the same level of intensity in a much shorter amount of time. We’re talking about esports. With the advent of competitive gaming, streaming has become a global phenomenon. But more than that, the digital sport has amassed a fan base that congregate in stadiums they would for any other sport. Which is why this week we’re taking a look at the esports experience. Helping us out with that is Ryan Thompson, CPO and co-founder of Esports Engine. Join us, as we dive into the world of competitive gaming, learning about what goes into setting up for an event, the impact Covid-19 has had on it, and what the future holds for this up-and-coming industry.
