“We are thrilled to have a significant equity stake alongside Comic Convention Latin America in this new global esports league. Spartans League represents a significant opportunity in revenues for all the services provided by YDX and its esports division via its subsidiary companies; Purple Mage and Render. The Spartans League ought to be a large revenue driver for us in 2021, in addition to our main business unit, YDreams Global, which grossed revenues over 2 (two) million dollars CAD in 2019. Maintaining an equity position in the league is important for our growth strategy in order to ensure we deliver a premium gaming experience, one that is monetizable and that top endemic and non-endemic brands are ready to invest in,” stated Daniel Japiassu, CEO of YDX Innovation.

The partnership with YDX Innovation is a great asset for our live events, with their expertise in interactive exhibitions and as a partner for the creation of the Spartans League for gaming,” stated Fernando Salame, creator and President of the Comic Convention Latin America.

Spartans League will allow an open registration to amateur and semi-professional players, with the goal to add a unique offering to this segment and avoid conflict with the current professional esports calendar of each game title. The Spartans League will focus on finding a new generation of talented gamers with the passion for competing and the desire to represent their country at the Spartans World Cup. This will give YDX and Comic Convention Latin America an exceptional opportunity to draft and invest in the winning teams, helping them to start their career in professional gaming and content creation.
