The Esports Club from Bengaluru Receives $3 Million in Funding For Global Expansion; All You Need to Know

The Esports Club or TEC was founded back in 2019 by industry veterans, Vamsi Krishna, Ishaan Arya & Mansoor Ahmed Noor. The trio created the international Esports organization, as a way to own, operate and partner with some of the premier IPs from the industry.

As part of its visions of global expansion, The Esports Club has just raised funding worth $3 million in pre-series A round. This funding will enable them to expand their operations to Middle East and Southeast Asia and “build a state-of-the-art esports platform”. The funding was led by KOMLAY Group and SAMBAVANATH Group.

Since its advent, TEC has been responsible for providing “specialised gaming marketing services”. It has also launched some extremely successful IPs such as The Arena in partnership with Comic Con, a consumer gaming show. The Esports Company has also brought in long-running Esports tournaments such as TEC Challenger Series and TEC gauntlet. At the moment, the TEC Community Cup is ongoing.

Through the new investment, TEC will now be able to support its growth in the Esports and gaming industry. This will also include growth towards operations, events and content creation.

The company has also stated that new initiatives will be launched in different regions, as well as hiring of local broadcasting talents, which in turn will help bolster its online presence. Finally, TEC will also be “investing in state-of-the-art broadcast facilities and technology to support its tournaments that cater to new markets”.
