FansUnite Entertainment Inc.(OTCQX: FUNFF) (CSE: FANS) (“FansUnite” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the launch of the VamosGG Cup , a two-day Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (“CS:GO”) tournament featuring gamers, streamers and influencers beginning on March 5, 2022.
FansUnite’s Brazilian esports wagering platform, VamosGG , set new record milestones during the PGL Major 2021, leading the Company to establish the VamosGG Cup. The live event will increase their Brazilian brand’s visibility among esports fans, mainly CS:GO enthusiasts, and position FansUnite to leverage the tournament to generate new registrants among spectators.
“Given the significant traction we received for VamosGG during the PGL Major 2021, we decided to launch our own branded tournament to grow the VamosGG brand,” said Scott Burton, CEO of FansUnite. “VamosGG is looking to acquire bettors through more cost-effective means than traditional advertising and sponsorship. Influencer advocacy has time and again proven to be an effective promotional and conversion tool for the esports generation. The Brazilian esports community consists of passionate CS:GO fans who support and follow their favourite streamers. Partnering with them will create more awareness about VamosGG, leading to more bettors on the VamosGG platform.”
