00:04When we made the move to Paris one of the thing the first things that we did was actually to
00:09reach
00:09out to the big three French clubs so we sat down with Common Corp we sat down with Vitality and
00:15Gentlemates and asked them how do we make this event your event how do we make this authentic
00:21to French gamers to Paris and so they've been incredibly supportive and here at this event we
00:27we dedicated space so we could actually have all three of the big three clubs here and what they've
00:33been able to do is is help steer us in the right direction to make sure that this is the
00:38most
00:38successful event that we can build but they've also bought their incredible fan base
00:49I mean for us we we literally spend 10 months of the year designing and planning everything and then
00:55eight weeks out to then have to throw that away and start again was the biggest challenge so the
01:01really short time frame that we had to be able to to design and bring all of the equipment that
01:07was
01:07already some of it on its way to Riyadh and turn that around and bring it to Paris but the
01:14team
01:14pulled together and so we have an incredible partnership with the publishers with the clubs as
01:20well but also with the city of Paris and with the government to be able to help facilitate this
01:25incredible event
01:26at this competition so at 16 games there's a final class which in general is the
01:34medium of the nations so on some games obviously
01:37and what are the favorite nations and what are the most敵ers in France in this competition
01:55So the goal for us very much is scale and to reach new fans, reach new audiences, but
02:02it really is to be able to achieve that status as a global sport and have the players that
02:08are competing on the stage at the moment be recognized in the same way as a professional
02:13footballer is or as a musician is, as a celebrity.
02:17We want to create those pathways for young men and women around the world to be able
02:22to compete.
03:06We want to create those pathways for young men and women around the world to be able to
03:07be able to compete in the same way as a professional sport.
03:07We want to create those pathways for young men and women around the world to be able to
