Video gaming goes academic!
|
You may have once asked: how can sports superstars earn millions upon millions annually, whilst elite gamers are often reproached as naive or laid-back. With the spectacular rise of e-sports in recent years, the world now views video-gaming through a completely different perspective.
By definition, e-sports places gamers inside an arena-like setting where players compete by pitting their intelligence, dexterity, and teamwork skills – exactly like they do in the sports world. Today, e-sports has evolved into a massive industry that spans the globe.
According to a report from Deloitte, in 2015, the e-sports industry generated HK$3.1 billion in revenue, with this figure expected to triple to HK$11 billion by 2020. In addition, the latest figures reveal that top performing e-sports competitors can earn tens of millions a year, just like many world-famous athletes, making e-sports a dream job for countless youngsters. Privy to this trend, more and more universities across Europe and the U.S. are creating e-sports bachelor's degree programmes to cater for such needs. The curriculum teaches students how to organise e-sports tournaments, create business proposals, initiate e-marketing campaigns, and more.
To become a participant in the e-sports arena, having a bachelor's in the field isn't a must. What you’ll definitely need is high-speed, reliable, low latency fibre broadband. Proving our value to all gamers, HKBN was recently named by Ookla's Speedtest as the fastest broadband services provider in Hong Kong.
