Winning esports company NRG draws top gamers from around the world

“If we’re not connected online we’re not getting anything done. The reliability of Spectrum Business as a partner has made a huge difference.”

Gabriel McHaley, Marketing Partnerships Manager, NRG

In downtown Los Angeles stands a building that brings together esports enthusiasts from around the world, both online and in-person. People come to NRG Spectrum Castle to enjoy big events, cheer on their favorite players and be part of a burgeoning community.

What makes it all possible is the unique vision and leadership of the people who run NRG.

They partner with Spectrum Business®, sponsor and technology provider to college and high school esports programs for over a decade, to make NRG Spectrum Castle a recognized hub across the West Coast for championship-level competitions and awareness-raising events.

“We can’t operate or exist in the Castle without the support of Spectrum Business,” says Don Kim, Chief Executive Officer, NRG. “When you look at our events and livestreaming that we have up and running, that only works when we have the power of Spectrum Business behind us.”

NRG leverages this connectivity to field some of the most competitive and widely recognized esports teams in the country.

For serious esports competitors, two things are critical to winning tournaments: advanced equipment and dedicated internet connectivity that keeps them in the game without disruptions.

For NRG Spectrum Castle, internet is delivered by the scalable, symmetrical connectivity of Dedicated Fiber Internet, which includes a service-level agreement guaranteeing 100% uptime.
