Understanding Professional Gaming
STOCKHOLM SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT AND ORGANISATION MSC IN BUSINESS AND ECONOMICS MASTER’S THESIS Understanding professional gaming A comparative analysis of Korean and Western organisations Kristofer Lindahl (40216) and Cedric Diserens (40218) 10/12/2012 Supervisor : Johan Berglund Examiner : Dag Björkegren Abstract In this thesis we seek to explore how “Professional Gaming Teams” in Korea and the western world are different from each other, and the underlying reasons for those differences. We perform an extensive pre-study that provides a deeper understanding of the eSport environment, identify theoretical frameworks to explain the differences between teams, and apply these frameworks to explain how the external environment affects the internal culture of the teams. In order to do this, we conduct critical interviews with game developers, tournament organizers, and team managers. We combine these sources with podcasts, news articles, and other types of media produced by the very active eSport community to create a foundational understanding of a market that has received next to no attention in academic circles. We employ McKinsey’s 7s framework to show how the internal workings of Professional Gaming Teams in Korea are different from those in the west. We also utilize PESTLE model, as well as Porter’s Five Forces to analyze the external environment of the eSport market. These three models provide a holistic approach and a broad understanding of forces that were, until recently, unexplored in the eSport industry. The results of our thesis show that it is external influences that cause Korean and Western teams to focus on different dimensions of their organizations.

Gamesquare Deck V1.3 Optimize
GameSquare Investor Presentation V1.1 Introduction Esports is now a mainstream form of entertainment; famed Fortnite player Ninja, who has had as many as 667,000 live watchers at the same time1, was featured on the cover of ESPN The Magazine in September 2018. For perspective, NBC’s prime broadcast show The Voice had a weekly audience of about 8 MM in November 20182, putting Ninja’s audience at over 8% of this figure. Ninja is successful, earning over $350,000 per month3. Though on a per-viewer basis, this is far less than what shows such as The Voice generate. Gamesquare will improve monetization of Esports viewership to address this gap. Our proposed business model is to make an outright purchase of the streaming rights of Esports players and teams, so that we can monetize them through methods such as product placement, sponsorships, and advertising. Further demonstrating the popularity of Esports, more than 50 US colleges and universities have varsity Esports teams4. Further, Goldman Sachs anticipates the monetization of Esports will go from $655 MM (2017) to just under $3 B (2022)5. 1 https://variety.com/2018/gaming/news/ninja-espn-magazine-cover-1202947409/ 2 https://www.nielsen.com/us/en/top10s.html 3 https://www.forbes.com/sites/insertcoin/2018/03/09/fortnite-goD-ninja-is-making-at-least-350000-a-month- from-twitch-subscriptions/ 4 http://www.espn.com/esports/story/_/id/21152905/college-esports-list-varsity-esports-programs-north-america 5 https://www.goldmansachs.com/insights/pages/infographics/e-sports/report.pDf So, how big is

Event Marketing and PR for Grail Quest
Event marketing and PR for Grail Quest Attracting and reaching audience in esports Felix Kaukiainen Bachelor’s thesis for Business Administration Marketing Åbo 2018 EXAMENSARBETE Författare: Felix Kaukiainen Utbildning och ort: Företagsekonomi, Åbo Inriktningsalternativ/Fördjupning: Marknadsföring Handledare: Camilla Ekman Titel: Event marketing and PR for Grail Quest – Attracting and reaching audience in esports _________________________________________________________________________ Datum: 5.11.2018 Sidantal:43 Bilagor: 1 _________________________________________________________________________ Abstrakt Under de senaste åren har e-sport blivit ett allt mer diskuterat ämne i medier. Tävlingsinriktat spelande (esport) håller på att formas till något bara få kunde tänka sig. E- sport (som förknippas med spelande) har också varit framgångsrikt på de olika fronterna i branschen. Den globala tilväxten inom e-sport och både nationell samt internationell framgång inom branschen har fått flera organisationer att investera i e-sport. Professionella sportorganisationer byggs upp på samma gång som tävlingar med allt större priser och synlighet väcker uppmärksamheten bland allmänheten. Dessutom har vissa skolor börjat stöda elever som vill rikta in sig på tävlingsinriktat spelande. Grail Quest är ett esport och LAN evenemang som ordnades för första gången 2017 i Gatorade Arena i Åbo 2018 i Kuppis bollhall. Organisatörerna vill med hjälp av evenemanget lyfta fram e-sporten och tävlingsinritkat spelande (videospel) bland allmänheten och nå nya potentiella kunder. Det huvudsakliga syftet med examensarbetet är att undersöka kundgruppen för att kartlägga en marknadsföringsstrategi åt följande Grail Quest -evenemanget som kommer att ordnas. I undersökningen ligger fokus på målgruppen e-sportentusiasiter. Arbetet går mer detaljerat in på hur man marknadsför evenemang. Det ser också på vad som krävs för att få ungdomar som tävlar i esport att bli intresserade att delta i ett e-sport och LAN- evenemang.

Drawing upon interviews, participant obser- vation, and my own experiences as a volunteer community moderator on Reddit, I propose that a significant portion of work performed by volunteer moderators is social and com- municative in nature.
