ESPORTS TECHNOLOGIES WELCOMES NBA STAR JORDAN CLARKSON AS AMBASSADOR
Esports wagering services company and operator of betting platform Gogawi.com, Esports Technologies, is teaming up with NBA star Jordan Clarkson.
Clarkson, who plays for the Utah Jazz, and is an avid NBA 2K player, will act as an ambassador for the company to raise awareness of the brand across social platforms. The marketing partnership will include content, streams and in-person appearances.
A Filipino-American, Clarkson has established himself as one of the NBA’s most popular players, and has a global fanbase, being a household name in the Philippines. In 2015, he and teammate Jeremy Lin formed the first Asian-American starting backcourt in NBA history.
Commenting on the collaboration Clarkson said: “I’m thrilled to partner with Esports Technologies as their brand ambassador. This company is on track to change esports and wagering as we know it. Not only is the company in an exciting space, but it also aligns closely with my own interests both on and off the court. I’m ready to help them make an impact.”
While CEO of Esports Technologies, Aaron Speach, added: “We’re honoured to team up with one of the NBA’s biggest stars as he is enjoying his finest season in the league. Jordan Clarkson’s background, talents and dynamic personality make him an ideal brand ambassador for us. He embodies everything we stand for. I’m confident this partnership will likely help us catapult our brand globally.”
Initially launched in Japan, last month Esports Technologies’ wagering platform Gogawi debuted in Thailand. University of Miami Basketball player and NBA Draft Pick Jack McClinton also joined the company as a strategic advisor earlier this month.
