SAN FRANCISCO-Friday 30 August 2019 [ AETOS Wire ]
(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Pole To Win International, Ltd. (PTW), the
industry-leading video games and tech services outsourcer, today
announced that it is launching a top-tier Esports team. The team is
composed of former members from the Indian Tigers as well as other top
pro players. The team is already one of the top three teams in India,
qualified for the ESL championship in Milan and trending as the fan
favorite in India.
“The
growth and potential of Esports is phenomenal,” said Deborah Kirkham,
CEO of PTW. “Orange Rock Esports represents our first foray into an
incredibly exciting arena. We are thrilled to join this rapidly growing
industry and ready to cheer on our talented team.”
“It’s
predicted that there will be 557 million Esports enthusiasts by 2021
and PTW is eager to play a role in capturing the hearts and minds of
Esports viewers,” added Kasturi Rangan, President of PTW America and
India. “At PTW, we are all gamers at heart, which makes this an extra
exciting move for us. There was a recent PMCO event where the team
attracted over 3.7 million viewers and was voted as the fan favorite by
over 660,000 votes. Many of us have been fans of the Indian Tigers, and
now we look forward to directly supporting the success of our team,
PTW’s newly-formed Orange Rock Esports.”
The
Orange Rock Esports team is currently undergoing an exclusive bootcamp
in Hyderabad, India. They will be training together for the next two
months under the management of Bharat Kiran Reddy (also known as Ribbi)
who is a legend in the pro Esports community in India. Prevailing over
500 other teams playing in India, Orange Rock Esports will have its
first chance to compete as a team in late September, having qualified
for the Vodafone 5G PUBG Mobile finals in Milan, representing India.
“Now
that we have spent time coalescing as a team, we are stronger than ever
and ready to dominate the PUBG Mobile arena. We are so excited to be
working with PTW to build the future of Esports as Orange Rock Esports,”
said Bharat Kiran Reddy, Orange Rock’s team coach and spokesperson.
