Thai virtual reality startup Infofed dips its toes in game-casting

gaming-1080x500With around 18.3 million e-sports players, Thailand has the 19th largest gamer community in the world. It has the potential to become Southeast Asia’s e-sports hub, and Bangkok-based virtual reality (VR) service startup Infofed wants to be at the forefront when that comes true.

Aside from introducing VR for game-casting in Thailand, Infofed plans to launch a CLMV (Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, and Vietnam) e-sports league this year, and an additional tournament for all of Southeast Asia in 2020.

Thailand faces competition from Indonesia in its quest to become the region’s e-sports hub. Indonesia has more than 47.7 million active gamers, and its professional players receive support from the Indonesia e-Sports Association (IeSPA), a government institution run by the Ministry of Youth and Sports.
