*EVENT POSTPONED*

  • Date:
  • Time: 4pm – 4.30pm

Thank you for your interest in our Esports webinar. Due to unforeseen circumstances, we are unable to broadcast the webinar on 5th August as scheduled. We will re-broadcast at a later date. If you’d like to register your interest in attending, please email marketing@staffs.ac.uk


In the past, online gaming has been considered barely more than a hobby, but what about now? With teams worth more than well-regarded professional football teams, astronomical prize funds, and an online community of over 100 million people, online gaming has not just grown into a business, it has evolved into Esports. 

Join Paul Walters, Staffordshire University’s lecturer in Esports, for his webinar masterclass and find out how and why Esports has grown significantly over the past ten years to become a major global phenomenon, and the reasons the wider community may be unable to understand why it is now a commercial entity. Plus, find out why it’s accelerated growth is set to bring about viable and lucrative opportunities in the future, and how our postgraduate qualifications can help put you at the forefront of the industry.

Take the lead and become a specialist in the industry of tomorrow. Study MA Esports at Staffordshire University or our new Digital Institute London.
