Inven Global is pleased to announce Twitch's Director of Student and Education Programs, Mark "Garvey" Candella, as their keynote speaker for the first annual Inven Global Esports and Academic Summit.
The 2020 Inven Global Esports Conference took place across two days earlier this week. Day 1 has already been recapped, so let's take a look at the digital smorgasbord of esports discussion had to offer on day 2.
The second day of the 2020 Inven Global Esports Conference is less than an hour away, but before things get started, let's take a look at everything that happened on day one of the very first digital IGEC.
Tons of networking and esports job opportunities at our 3rd annual conference. Join us virtually today and tomorrow for a full day of panels and new industry connections!
On June 30th and July 1st, we are bringing our signature esports networking event to an all-new virtual event format. Enjoy two days of esports panels, industry networking and exclusive insights into the every-day working world of competitive gaming.
"Esports & Black Lives Matter: A Conversation" will go live on the Inven Global Twitter via Periscope, and will discuss the intersection between esports and modern day civil rights movement #BlackLivesMatter.
The panel took place on Friday, May 29 at 2:00pm PT, and was hosted by Inven Global's Director of Corporate Strategy Nick D'Orazio. HyperX sponsored the panel, which featured four panelists: Hantao Yuan, Jordan O'Hara, Rachel Feinberg, and Daniel "DGon" Gonzales.
This week's panel focused on the merchandising and fashion verticals of the esports industry, and also, how the two intersect in a myriad of contexts. HyperX sponsored the panel, as it has with the previous digital installments of IGEC 2020.
Thanks to HyperX, another online panel for the 2020 Inven Global Esports Conference is fast approaching. Today's panel, 'Esports Agents & Player Representation,' will be hosted by Inven Global Partnerships Manager Kelsey Remige, and will go live on Twitter at 2:00pm PT.
Kelsey Remige joined the Inven Global team at the start of 2020. Her experience in both interviewing professional players in the League of Legends Championship Series and player management at Evolved Talent Agency have helped her craft a nuanced understanding of professional representation in esports. The panel will be rounded out by four branding specialists who work for some of the top organizations in esports.
Today's panel, 'Oversaturated Content Market', will be hosted by Inven Global Director of Corporate Strategy Nick D'Orazio and will focus on the saturation of certain types of content in the esports and gaming spaces.
This week's installment of 'Nick's Esports Talks' centers around the countless approaches, mediums, and stories under the umbrella of esports content, as well as which of these types of content are best and worst in the context of the esports industry.
