Why It's Hard to Compare Esports to Traditional Sports

  • Summary

  • We are no longer in a world where we have to justify encouraging our youth to play video games, but even with the evolution of the industry, there is still a long way to go before esports can officially go head-to-head with traditional sports. In this episode of the DLC Drop Podcast, John is joined by Glenn Plat, Co-Director of Esports ta Miami University. Glenn has an incredible history and was one of the first to bring an esports program to a university. Glenn and John discuss the differences between traditional sports and esports, and why there will continue to be a divide between the two. They also talk about how universities should approach their esports program, and what they should realistically be able to expect from a revenue and ROI perspective.  They also cover how businesses and partners can win in a space that is still finding its footing, and why a long game is going to be the most important play for success.  If you’re interested in connecting with Glenn, visit: https://www.linkedin.com/in/glennjplatt/ Jennifer Frank: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennifer-frank-3bb5a2159/ Taxed on first 80% of the revenue
