Esports is bigger than the NBA, NFL, MLB, and soccer combined
Joe Way from HETMA (Higher Education Technology Managers Alliance, 10,000+ members, $25B+ annual spend) delivers a reality check: esports is bigger than the NBA, NFL, MLB, and soccer combined. And if your university doesn’t have an esports program, you’re behind. In this episode of NETGEAR Now, we talk about the unique challenges of higher ed at scale; buying in hundreds, across 5,400+ US colleges, with budget cuts forcing “do more with less.”
Joe explains why AV departments no longer exist (it’s all IT now), how NETGEAR switches earned street cred with campus network teams, and why E-sports networks can’t go down when sponsors and revenue are on the line.
