Intel UK and UK-based community gaming and esports organisation EPIC.LAN announced Monday that they have teamed up for another year.
Financial terms of this renewed partnership were not disclosed.
Marking the fifth consecutive year working together, Intel will continue to work with EPIC.LAN to champion grassroots gaming and esports in the region as a key partner through sponsorships, giveaways, activations, and more.
The renewed partnership will see Intel serve as a headline partner for EPIC.LAN’s three planned flagship events in 2025 at Kettering Leisure Village, providing activations, hands-on Intel technology demonstrations, community tournaments, and prize giveaways to participants and fans. Intel will also continue to support unique activations such as Intel Community Championship Belt–giving fans of all skill levels an opportunity to compete in a variety of games to earn points for a chance to be crowned the ultimate champion.
“We have all seen the challenges faced in the events industry over the last few years,” said Jon Winkle, managing director at EPIC.LAN. “One of the reasons EPIC.LAN has been able to continue delivering top-quality gaming events is through the strength of its partnerships and how those partners understand our community-first approach As we go into our fifth year of working with Intel, it’s clear that they thoroughly understand the importance of supporting those grassroots gaming and esports communities with us and we look forward to another year of strong collaboration.”
EPIC.LAN’s EPIC44 will take place at Kettering Conference Centre from Feb. 20-23. More details and ticketing information can be found at www.epiclan.co.uk.
