Someone should send a url link to this thread to every single big company out there, because this thread shows how effective PR it is to sponsor E-sports.

Anyone?

FFFunk!!!

With Monster sponsoring EG it will only be a matter of time until coke or pepsi sponsor some western team.

I've always felt a bit bad that such a good team as IM, didn't have any major sponsors.
Great news to see they scored the biggest one out there!

Well deserved for them. Hopefully, with the new sponsor money, we'll be seeing them shipped to high paying foreign events in the future so they can dominate globally.

Hopefully foreign teams will get those kind of sponsors one day.

Coca cola actually sponsor one of the biggest norwegian teams. (Gamersleague). They were handing out fucktons of cans at a lan i was recently at.
Still, good for IM. Probably brings a bit more exposure for Coca Cola than a norwegian team does.

I haven't read all pages but there's no mention of to which extend they'll sponsor the team. I hope they do what Pepsi is doing for World Elite though and then some.
