Jun Yamashita, Creative Director of our Design Center Digital Design Department, and Miho Yagabe, Planning Director of Cross Media Innovation Headquarters Spatial Media Marketing Division, will be participating as instructors in the "eSports Workshop" (sponsored by Gunma Prefecture) to be held in Gunma Prefecture from July to September 2021.
The "eSports Workshop" was organized as an opportunity to host the "Red Bull 5G" gaming event, a competition between East and West competition across five genres and five events, at G-Messe Gunma in November 2021. Through the five workshops, participants will learn and practice professional perspectives and creative ways of thinking, with the aim of helping them to take the next step and nurturing creative talent in Gunma Prefecture.
Our company will be participating as a lecturer in the "Esports Workshop for Working Adults - Giving wings to the passion of working adults", aimed at people working for companies in Gunma Prefecture. Together with Matsui Yu of Groovethink Inc., we will share, through seminars and group work, planning and proposal methods with an eye to the future, from the perspective of a space creator who works on eSports-related facilities and events.
We look forward to your participation.
