The range of programming, featuring an impressive lineup of on-air talent, will include global esports event coverage, industry insiders' top stories, talk shows with interviews of gamers, teams, creators, investors, industry executives, and reality shows.

"We continue moving forward with the development of Esportz Network as a global esports producer for some of the largest media properties seeking news, insight, analysis, and authentic content. As gaming and esports continue to grow in popularity, we see an insatiable appetite for the compelling content we will be producing," Mark Thimmig, Esportz Entertainment Corp. chairman and CEO, said. "Esportz Network is a perfect partner for Fortune 100/500 companies seeking to engage with one of the most valuable market segments in the world, 18 to 34. We'll be creating content that leading brands will be comfortable associating with and places them in the heart of the esports fan community."

Thimmig also noted that Jeffrey Katzenberg's and Meg Whitman's new company, Quibi, is the future of news and entertainment programming as many young viewers are using their cell phones to watch their favorite content.

"Fewer young people have the patience or interest in 30 minutes to 1-hour programming loaded with commercials," Thimmig added. "At Esportz Network, we are following the Quibi philosophy as we build programming content, designed for mobile, targeted specifically to the coveted 18-to-34 age group. Additionally, we will also be focusing on contributing content to some of the leading media properties that are interested in supplementing their own initiatives."
