Denis Martasov, Marketing Department Director of ABI Product discussed the deal in a release: This is the second time we partner up with EPICENTER […] This is a unique opportunity for complex communication in both online and offline environments thanks to high emotional involvement and esports audience’s transparency.
“We consider supporting esports a promising and worthwhile effort for the “Goryachaya Shtuchka” brand. Therefore, we plan to actively support it in the future onward, pulling out the stops on brand integration to the gaming environment.”
Esports Insider says: The expanding of this particular partnership appears to be evidence of the initial success it spawned in June. It’s always interesting to see local brands that are unrelated to esports getting involved, especially when observing how they activate.
