audience through the power and global appeal of esports and gaming.
Oliver Clarke, Commercial Director at BLAST, said: “We are very proud to extend our partnership with A.P. Moller – Maersk, after becoming their first ever global esports partner last year. It highlights the brilliant work we have achieved together over the last 12 months and our shared commitment to bringing esports closer to those who love it most through integrated digital campaigns and engaging content.”
Samuel Poulter, Head of Corporate Branding and Channel Development at A.P. Moller – Maersk added: “We look forward to our continued engagement with BLAST and the gaming community. The Maersk MVP segment has been incredibly well received, and we are excited to celebrate the fantastic talent in the community and share more stories that highlight what makes an MVP and also a great technologist at Maersk.”
