The organization was founded by Ankit Bhatia - a successful entrepreneur and digital marketing veteran - and Tushaar Garg - an international sport and esports business professional, formerly with IMG.
Commenting on the relationship, Bhatia said, “The future for growth of esports teams is definitely community. Top esports brands in the world have adopted this strategy aggressively, and so have their sponsors”, adding that, “Marcos Gaming’s strategic move to drive this new reality, and evolve from being an esports team into the realm of esports-entertainment is a new dawn for esports in the country. This is going to be an exciting journey as we work together to create an Indian esports behemoth.”
