Students from French business schools such as Neoma Business School, SKEMA Business School, and GEM participated in this event, which brought together around 2,000 live viewers (the tournament was organized by SKEMA, in partnership with the game’s developer).
“We are very proud of and happy about this victory, which is the result of a long-term effort to create enthusiasm for e-sport at IÉSEG. The level of our 7 players allowed us to have this success, and we also hope to perform well in the national university tournament, which will be taking place this week,” Baptiste Benazzi, IÉSEG Esport Manager, explained.
