The 的电子竞技 field is perfect for anyone interested in event management, 通信, 游戏, 训练, 运动科学, or being part of a field that promises to grow more prominent and engaging with every passing year. For example, from 2018 to 2019, paid 的电子竞技 positions increased by over 110%.

You'll see that it's everywhere, and it isn't bound by geography. You don't use a stick or a bat to play, and you can play alone or with a whole group of people, play against the best."

Peter Guber | Co-owner of Team Liquid
