As esports continues to break further into the mainstream, Foley
& Lardner LLP and The Esports Observer surveyed more
than 120 professionals to analyze the most pressing business and
legal issues.
The survey revealed expectations of continued revenue growth and
investment in esports, driven by a range of factors, including the
growing involvement of traditional professional sports teams,
leagues and figures; the rise of streaming deals involving major
technology companies and TV networks; and the broadening of
advertising and sponsorships. Industry participants also expressed
concerns about a variety of risks to the maturing industry,
including match fixing, cybersecurity and malware attacks, and
intellectual property rights and licensing issues.
