BLAST Pro Series Brings World-Class Esports Entertainment to Miami
The BLAST trophy comes with a prize of 125,000 dollars for the winner! Mar 20, 2019 12:32 UTC Biggest event of the year: BLAST Pro Series brings world-class esports entertainment to Miami For the first time ever BLAST Pro Series will bring the newest and most spectacular live esports format to US. On 13 April, 6 of the world's best Counter-Strike teams with some of esports' biggest stars will battle it out live on stage in Miami's Watsco Center for a total prize pool of 250,000 dollars. The show has sold out in all arenas so far and tickets fir Miami go live February 20. The BLAST experience Watsco Center will be completely transformed to a state-of-the art digital battleground: From the iconic A-stage with all 6 teams playing live on the same time over the monstrous set-up with multiple jumbo screens, hundreds of moving lights and amazing surround sound to the event itself: It is live entertainment like you’ve never experienced before! Jordi Roig, Executive Producer of BLAST Pro Series comments: - BLAST Pro Series is the best of all live entertainment and sports formats in one. Miami will be our first first ever tournament in North America, and it will probably be the biggest live esports in US of 2019. Last week we opened the ticket sales for our São Paulo tournament and within hours the arena was completely sold out. We see this tendency all over the world, and eventhough BLAST in Miami will be the biggest esports event ever in Florida, we expect a completely packed arena afor the Saturday event. -
Projeto De Comunicação Para a Organização De Desportos Eletrónicos Offset Esports
Projeto de comunicação para a organização de desportos eletrónicos Offset Esports José Miguel de Pinho Bastos Trabalho de projeto submetido como requisito parcial para a obtenção do grau de Mestre em Publicidade e Marketing Trabalho orientado pela Professora Doutora Maria Cristina Luz Lisboa, setembro de 2019 Declaração Declaro ser o autor deste trabalho de projeto, realizado como parte das condições necessárias para a obtenção do grau de Mestre em Publicidade e Marketing. Trata-se de um trabalho original, nunca submetido (no seu todo ou em qualquer das suas partes constituintes) a uma outra instituição de ensino superior para obtenção de grau académico ou qualquer outra habilitação. Ademais, atesto que todas as citações estão devidamente identificadas, tendo consciência de que o plágio levará à anulação do trabalho aqui apresentado. Lisboa, 18 de setembro de 2019 ii Resumo Em Portugal, o crescente interesse do público nos denominados esports, e mais especificamente no Counter-Strike, suscitou um enorme desenvolvimento do cenário competitivo nos últimos anos, o que tem levado as organizações de desportos eletrónicos a desenvolverem esforços na tentativa de evoluir em conformidade. No entanto, apesar da profissionalização das várias entidades a operar neste meio e do aparecimento de novos investidores e patrocinadores, a abordagem da maioria das organizações é ainda, na sua larga maioria, semiprofissional ou mesmo amadora. Semelhante ao que outrora aconteceu com as organizações de desportos tradicionais, um dos aspetos fulcrais neste processo de formalização operacional é a vertente do Marketing e da Comunicação. Este trabalho de projeto tem precisamente como objetivo apresentar uma proposta de plano de comunicação para a organização profissional de desportos eletrónicos portuguesa Offset Esports. -

ESL Announces European Grassroots Initiative Expanding Path to Pro League for CS:GO
Jun 26, 2017 16:00 BST ESL Announces European Grassroots Initiative Expanding Path to Pro League for CS:GO The world’s largest esports company, ESL, is today proud to reveal a new initiative to expand its path for aspiring Counter-Strike: Global-Offensive (CS:GO) players to rise through the ranks from the National Championship level onto the amateur ranks in order to qualify for the largest CS:GO league in the world, the ESL Pro League. Starting with ESEA Season 26, the winners of the ESL UK Premiership and the ESL Mistrzostwa Polski, the official national leagues of the UK & Ireland and Poland respectively, will claim a place to compete in the Mountain Dew League (MDL). This unique partnership provides a clear pathway for CS:GO players to progress from amateur ranks to compete on the world stage linking the national leagues to the Pro League through MDL. The investment in the path-to-pro system will continue from Season 27 with ESL’s French, Spanish and German leagues providing qualification spots to the MDL, establishing ESL’s national leagues as the leading grassroots CS:GO leagues in each territory. The already-established ESEA League will continue to run alongside this new initiative. To achieve this, ESL is set to move its European National Championships to be part of ESEA’s system creating promotion spots up to MDL, the only league that feeds directly into the Pro League. The team that wins the National Championship will qualify for the MDL, creating a clear path from there to the Pro League. -

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.
