Gary Merrill, President and CEO of Hussey Seating Company commented in a release: “We’re extremely proud to partner with a leading esports organisation like NACE. Partnering with them will allow us an even deeper connection with the growing collegiate esports community.
“As esports developed into a spectator seating sport we worked alongside key architectural partners to design a product mix for flexible spaces which accommodate multiple configurations and recover floor space to accommodate either the progression of competition or multiple events.”
Esports Insider Says: Hussey Seating is a major company and for it to get more involved in esports could yield interesting results. NACE will be looking to continually expand and grabbing more household partnerships should attract further interest from more colleges.
