Narayanan Venkataraman, Managing Director of HP KSA, commented: \u201cIt\u2019s great to see an event like Gamerscon receive so much attention and appreciation in the Kingdom. Esport has become a dominant global industry with viewership surpassing some of the top online streaming services and its athletes are being recognized in the same way as traditional athletes. Events like these help shine the light on the Kingdom\u2019s local talents who previously did not have a platform to express themselves. On that note, I would also like to congratulate Osh-tekk Warriors on the win and wish them continued success.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
