The esports event organizer announced a partnership with a Singapore-based cryptocurrency exchange platform, Bitget, for its Major Antwerp 2022 and Dota 2 Major Arlington 2022 events. Bitget has been designated as the official cryptocurrency partner for both PGL’s events.
Following Bitget’s previous sponsorship of PGL Major Stockholm 2021 in October last year, the company seems to have increased its commitment to the esports industry. Early this year, it announced a partnership with Team Spirit, the Russian esports organization.
?The Chief Executive Officer of PGL, Silviu Stroie, spoke about the partnership being a beacon for higher heights for both brands in their respective industries.?
“When establishing partnerships, trustworthiness continues to be one of the biggest priorities for us,” he said.
“We are pleased to be able to once again receive support from Bitget for our upcoming events. We hope that these partnerships will promote the growth of both industries and with a partner like Bitget, reach even higher goals in the years to come.”??
Stroie went on to speak to the possibilities attainable with such a partnership, creating endless opportunities for a symbiotic relationship between the esports industry and the crypto space.
“We believe that there are strong synergies between both esports and crypto and we are elated to be charging this path with a partner like Bitget,” he said.??
The CEO of Bitget, Sandra Lou, shared her excitement in the partnership between both parties. She mentioned that the partnership will invariably strengthen their “foothold in the crypto space”.?
“We are pleased to partner with PGL on its CS:GO RMR and Major, following our sponsorship for PGL Major Stockholm 2021 back in October 2021,” Lou stated.
“We are always eager to partner with like-minded partners to strengthen our foothold and position in the rapidly evolving crypto space. After our successful partnership late last year, we are confident we will be able to reach new heights with PGL as we continue to achieve dual synergies.”
Sandra had long talked about the importance of expanding the brand’s global footprint.
“We will also expand our global footprint and deliver extreme operations to accommodate local market needs,” she said.
“In this way, we can fulfil the need for users to trade and enjoy better services.”
The sponsorship of both PGL Major Antwerp 2022 and Dota 2 Major Arlington 2022 does exactly that to the brand’s reach and adoption potential.?
Bitget is a leading cryptocurrency derivatives exchange, with trading solutions that support futures contracts and spot trading. With an estimated 2 million registered users, the brand claims to be present in 50 countries. Headquartered in Singapore, founder Sandra Lou started out the company in 2018.
In 2020, the company raised a Series B funding of US$10 million from popular Japanese gaming company SNK as well as Anlan Capital, with a valuation pegged at US$1 billion. It has been listed on Binance, CoinMarketCap, CMC and CoinGecko.
