Growth of eSports is boosting video game industry. Esports growth, particularly the development of its infrastructure, could fuel a new wave of success in the video gaming sector.
Michael Rubinelli, the current CEO of the online esports platform Mogul and former executive at Electronic Arts, Disney and Midway, said “Video Gaming revenue has the very real potential to be a trillion dollar business over the next ten years. One of those drivers of growth is esports. Interactive gaming is the largest entertainment revenue generating vertical in the world earning more than box office and music sales combined.”
Scott Burton, CEO of Askott Entertainment, said “As a leading provider of B2B betting solutions in the esports market, we are pleased to announce this integration with The Ear Platform which will serve as an additional revenue stream for our partners and a highly scalable channel partner for us. With the addition of 6,000 casino games, our partners are now in a position to provide additional betting options for their customers while providing a larger product offering to increase customer retention and the lifetime value of each unique user.”
Esports platforms are looking for additional revenue options, as they seek further growth. FansUnite Entertainment Inc has recently acquired Askott Entertainment Inc.
