Everyone Wants a Piece of Esports.
Over the last several years, esports has grabbed the spotlight. The record-breaking viewership numbers and publisher revenues seem to defy logic. Everyone seems to want something specific from esports. Is esports compatible with other businesses? Is there room for everyone? Are we in a bubble? Hear from one of the top commentators of the industry and his take on what the world wants from esports and what esports has to give to the world.
