Global esports and gaming organization Gen.G today announced this week the expansion of its educational initiative, Gen.G Foundation, with the official launched of scholarships for the Gen.G Practicum Abroad program. This program offers students a three-week experience at the Gen.G headquarters in Seoul, South Korea, in Spring and Summer 2025, according to the organization. This will include what Gen.G describes as “custom esports programming, mentorship by industry professionals, special lectures, industry lunch and learns, and professional networking.”

“Education is a key pillar to our business, so it’s extremely gratifying that we are so committed to awarding scholarships and expanding our program to bring students to Korea to access our resources at our new Gen.G Global Academy facility,” said Arnold Hur, CEO for Gen.G. “Since 2020, we have seen firsthand the impact of the Gen.G Foundation has had on our students by enhancing their opportunities to pursue their professional goals.”
Gen.G Foundation said in a release that it plans to continue providing scholarships “primarily focusing on women, people of color and low income students” enrolled in a U.S. university or college who have a keen interest in gaming, esports, entrepreneurship, journalism or content creation. Students can submit their credentials here by Nov. 6.
