For the start-up competition, we have partnered with Pegasus Tech Ventures of San Francisco for a pitch competition where start-ups from the gaming space will compete for a spot to showcase themselves at the main Grand Finale event on 12 November in San Francisco and then compete for a US$1,000,000 investment prize (https://www.startupworldcup.io/about-us).
It is intended that the World Esports & Gaming Summit will be the first in a series of esports and gaming conferences that the Company will host or co-host to gain B2B exposure across a number of markets. We anticipate that these conferences will enhance the Company's offering to potential sponsors and clients across its operational pillars and create revenue through dedicated workshops and event sponsors.

"We are pleased to take our first step in B2B events which we see generating revenue both from the events themselves and from broadening our product offer to potential sponsors."
Jassem Osseiran, COO of Semper Fortis Esports, added:
