The partnership, Which is based on the JBL Quantum brand of gaming acccessories, is being expanded to include Europe. As such, the brand will become the ‘Official Audio Partner’ of Vitality from now on.
JBL Quantum is a gaming-focused line of audio equipment created by American audio equipment manufacturer JBL, a part of the Harman group of companies.

Nicolas Maurer, CEO and co-founder at Team Vitality, said of the extension: “We are very happy that JBL Quantum will continue to be part of the Team Vitality family as an Official Audio Partner for 2023.
The extension proves that we have been able to co-construct a coherent partnership, with tailor-made activations for our players and our community. We look forward to showcasing this partnership during this year’s international competitions.”
