The company, founded in 2013, has competed in both CS:GO and CS2. The organisation&#8217;s biggest competitive success in Counter-Strike came at the BLASTtv Paris Major 2023, where Apeks reached the semi-finals. The company also operated a Fortnite and a VALORANT roster, the latter of which will continue to exist. <\/p>\n\n  <\/div>\n\n\n<div id=\"esi-paragraph-67cfee208aec9\" class=\"esi-paragraph \">\n    \n<p>Apeks noted that due to challenging economic circumstances, a decision was made to focus available resources towards its VALORANT roster. This means that its Fortnite and Counter-Strike players and staff will no longer be a part of the company. In the mentioned statement, Apeks leadership noted that &#8220;most of their employees will be temporarily laid off.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n  <\/div>\n\n\n<div id=\"esi-paragraph-67cfee208b639\" class=\"esi-paragraph \">\n    \n<p>The company will also &#8220;actively seek fresh capital&#8221; during the summer in an effort to bounce back as soon as possible. <\/p>\n\n  <\/div>\n\n\n<div id=\"esi-paragraph-67cfee208bd9f\" class=\"esi-paragraph \">\n    \n<p><strong>Chairman of the Board, Ole Anfinnsen,<\/strong> commented: &#8220;These difficult decisions, including the temporary layoffs and the pause of our Counter-Strike division, were made with a heavy heart to secure a sustainable future for Apeks.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n  <\/div>\n\n\n<div id=\"esi-paragraph-67cfee208c502\" class=\"esi-paragraph \">\n    \n<p>&#8220;Investing in Apeks has been a labour of love for me.
