It’s exciting to see Anthros make its ESL FACEIT Group - EFG debut at IEM Katowice in Poland, one of the most iconic stages in esports. As Anthros' partner, we’re thrilled to support a client that’s setting a new standard for performance seating and pushing the industry forward. Congratulations to Team Vitality on their championship win!

I had the incredible opportunity to attend ESL FACEIT Group - EFG IEM Katowice in Poland as a partner, representing Anthros . As a fan for over a decade, I never imagined I’d get to experience this event live; let alone witness Anthros chairs making their debut on one of the most prestigious stages in esports. Anthros is the cleat for the esports athlete. Designed to adapt to the player, our chair provides unparalleled support, and comfort allowing players to lock in the way they want. With precision sitting and anti-gravity tilt technology, players gain the full range of motion that traditional racing "gaming" chairs simply can’t offer. This event is a testament to what’s possible when innovation meets passion. Gamers deserve more than just a chair they deserve equipment that empowers them to perform at their best. And with Anthros, this is only the beginning. We’re just getting started. Congratulations to Vitality for winning the tournament.

It's that time of year again! No, I am not talking about the BIG game or the sighting of an owl that is so superb. Its another epic celebration of football fandom, THE MADDEN BOWL! Excited to see the 10th annual MADDEN Champion crowned in the heart of the "Big Easy" with a cast of world class entertainers. Props to my former team Andrew Echanique, Ben Frey, Spinks Edwards, justin chow, and Shawn Heinis for keeping the torch burning and the dreams of millions of Madden competitors alive. You all have continued to adapt and innovate under all conditions. I have the honor and pleasure to attend in person again this year. Please let me know if anyone would like to meet up and join the festivities as I have a few extra tickets. #esports #madden25 #easports #superbowl

Headed to ESL IEM Katowice next week to celebrate a huge milestone for Anthros! Thanks to our incredible new partnership with ESL FACEIT Group - EFG, Anthros chairs will be on the main stage at IEM for the first time ever. As Head of Partnerships at Anthros, working with the ESL team to bring this to life has been amazing—and we're just getting started. I have been watching IEM Katowice since 2014. From my perspective, this is one of the most legendary events in esports. I can't wait to see the best CS2 players in the world competing from the best chair in the world. =] If you'll be at IEM and want to connect, let's make it happen!

It was great to be back in "The City" for another event! Thank you to Jordan Schuetz, SF Game Development, and Tipalti for hosting me. It was energizing to speak with many young (and young at heart) minds who are incubating and developing games. I had amazing 1:1 chats with young professionals with a diverse set of skills (e.g. engineering, audio, legal, QA, founders). Also, its always a pleasure to spend time with an OG gamer and tryhard Jonathan Mumm. See everyone again at #GDC. #gamedevelopment #ai #ugc #payments
