Further Kia brand will appear on the LEC and LFL team jerseys and across its social media and video channels.

Kia joins a growing list of sponsors and partners for the organization including Cherry XTRA, Streamcoi, grocery store chain ALDI, apparel brand hummel (a brand of Hummel International), sponsorship analytics firm Shikenso Analytics, ALDI, Secretlab, JBL Quantum, Socios.com, Samsung, Garnier Fructis, EVNIA, TEZOS, Kingston Fury, and GGBet, among others.
