Company Summary

International Gaming League is bridging the gap between amateur video gaming and professional gaming (eSports). With the incredible growth of major professional leagues and the emergence of livestreaming, IGL answers the demand for an amateur ecosystem thanks to three technologies: leagues, ladders and automated events. This allows the company to position itself as a category leader for people entering the industry for the first time.
