("Guild Esports", "Guild", or "the Company")
Guild Studios generates over $1.1 million in revenue since
launch
Guild Studios secures content creation mandate from Sky
Broadband
Guild Esports PLC (LSE: GILD; OTCQB: GULDF), a global
gaming-focused media business, is pleased to announce that Guild
Studios, the Company's production and creative division, has
generated over $1.1m in revenue since its creation in Q1 2023.
Since its creation, Guild Studios has delivered campaigns and
activations for high profile brands including Samsung UK,
Coca-Cola, Sky Broadband, Subway and blood cancer charity Anthony
Nolan. Guild Studios has organised activations and events including
assisting in the launch of the new Samsung Galaxy S23, launching
the first ever mixed-gender VALORANT tournament and launching an
all-female Rocket League tournament.
The $1.1 million revenue milestone was achieved after Guild
Studios was named the Official Activation Partner of Sky Broadband
for its 2024 Gaming Plan. Sky Broadband has granted Guild Studios
an exclusive mandate to deliver a suite of activation services in
the first half of 2024. These include production and design work,
creative work and project management.
Guild Studios' new mandate from Sky Broadband will complement
and build on Sky's position as Official Premier Partner of Guild
Esports. Guild Studios will take a tournament-led strategy to
content creation, delivering high-quality esports and gaming
events, with the express purpose of elevating the visibility and
recognition of women gamers, an under-represented group in
professional gaming.
The success of Guild Studios has been additionally responsible
for a significant increase in Guild's social media engagement in
2023. All content distributed on Guild's social media channels is
created in-house by Guild Studios. Guild's number of followers
across its owned and operated channels has increased by 1.7 million
in H2 2023 and remains on an upward trajectory.
Jasmine Skee, CEO of Guild Esports, commented: "Guild Studios is
a success story for Guild Esports. Since its creation this year it
has already brought in close to a million pounds in revenue and
provides us with an opportunity to drive revenue alongside
sponsorship. Guild Studios is hugely exciting for us as a brand -
we partner with companies on targeted campaigns that clearly
demonstrate Guild's ability to connect and understand the
notoriously hard-to-reach Gen Z and Gen Alpha demographics. Guild
Studios has produced some incredible work so far, and this is a
promising growth area.
"Since first signing Sky as our Official Premier Partner in
September 2022, our relationship has continued to flourish. Brought
together by our shared commitment to women in gaming and esports
excellence, we're delighted to be working more closely with Sky in
2024 and beyond."
