A rodada de financiamento foi organizada para ajudar a expandir a lista da já formidável organização Gen.G Esports.Além disso, ele contribuirá para projetos como uma nova sede da equipe em Los Angeles, uma nova academia de esports de jovens, e ajudará a Gen.G a aumentar sua presença no mercado de jogos chineses.

Will Smith’s investment came as part of his Dreamers Fund that he set up with the Japanese football star, Keisuke Honda. Joining the pair in the funding round are the likes of the Los Angeles Clippers minority owner, Dennis Wong, as well as one of the key players in the rise of the Alibaba Group, Michael Zeisser. In addition to this, there were significant investments from Stanford University, Battery Ventures, New Enterprise Associates, and Silicon Valley Bank, who have been named as Gen.G’s banking partner.

By bringing together the worlds of celebrity, sport, technology and finance, it is hoped that Gen.G will now have all of the financial clout necessary to consolidate their reputation as one of the world’s most formidable esports organisations.

Gen.G were initially a South Korean esports team who were known as KSV eSports. Since their rebranding, they have expanded beyond their already-excellent League of Legends origins, to become key players in titles like Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds and Clash Royale. In addition to this, their Seoul Dynasty side was one of the founding teams of the Overwatch League, and Gen.G have also made big plans to become a dominant force in the increasingly popular Call of Duty: Black Ops competitive gaming tournaments.

As part of the new investments in Gen.G, there will be a big shake up of the brand’s operations. As a result, Seoul Dynasty will move from the US to South Korea, there will be a new headquarters opening in Los Angeles in July, and Gen.G will step up its plans to enter the hugely lucrative Chinese gaming market. This will see the esports organisation investing money in player development whilst seeking to gain revenue from areas such as the streaming of the team’s matches and the sale of in-game items.

Nos últimos meses, vimos organizações de eSports como Team Liquid, G2 eSports e Team Solomid se beneficiando de rodadas lucrativas de financiamento como essa.A decisão de Will Smith de investir em eSports é o mais recente empreendimento de uma figura significativa de celebridades, pois estrelas que variam de Drake e Ashton Kutcher a Jennifer Lopez investiram seu próprio dinheiro em projetos de esports.Tudo isso mostra que os esports estão prontos para crescer ainda mais dramaticamente nos próximos anos.
