Live streaming data analytics provider Stream Hatchet<\/strong>, a GameSquare company, has renewed and expanded its partnership with games developer Riot Games<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
Stream Hatchet will support the publisher with SaaS-based analytics solutions across its global event operations for League of Legends and the VALORANT Champions Tour (VCT).<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
Stream Hatchet and Riot Games have partnered for five years, elevating the developer\u2019s decision-making around tournament scheduling and formats through audience tracking and viewership trend analysis. They also recently extended the scope of their partnership to additional influencer marketing capabilities produced by influencer platform company Sideqik<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
Both Sideqik and Stream Hatchet are subsidiaries of esports holding company GameSquare. While Sideqik is GameSquare\u2019s end-to-end creator relationship management solutions, its sister company specialises in measuring and analysing live-streaming viewership and engagement data.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
Stream Hatchet assists publishers, brands, and IP holders with data from Twitch, YouTube Live, Trovo and more. The company also publishes a yearly gaming and esports trends report<\/a> featuring viewership insights.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
Parent company GameSquare owns several esports and gaming ventures, including esports organisation FaZe Clan and marketing agency Zoned Gaming. The company has previously collaborated with Mastercard<\/a>, eye health startup Vivior<\/a>, and dairy advocacy group Dairy MAX<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
Last month, GameSquare launched creator-lead media company FaZe Media<\/a> following its merger with North American esports organisation FaZe Clan<\/a>. Shortly after, the holdings company sold a 25.5% stake of FaZe Media<\/a> to Richard \u2018FaZe Banks\u2019 Bengston, the organisation\u2019s CEO and one of FaZe Clan\u2019s original founders.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
