Today is not only a welcome reminder of this reality; it is the start of an exciting new phase in the realm of esports cooperation, one where collectivism instigates a new wave of evolution. For the International Esports Federation, playing a pivotal role alongside the Global Esports Federation is an exciting prospect and we’re looking ahead with great anticipation and ambition.”
