Worldwide media company GosuGamers has revealed the inauguration of a financial support initiative on its tournament platform, GosuBattles, designed to bolster local esports development in the Philippines and India.
This initiative is designed to give aid to regional tournament managers by way of monetary contributions, advice, marketing, and other assistance, all aiming ‘to cultivate valuable competitive activities’ across the Asian continent.

The financial support is oriented toward both content developers and members of the gaming community, spanning from collegiate groups to established esports organizations, exclusively located in the Philippines and India. Coordinators have the option to utilize the funds to facilitate tournament prize allocations, procure improved technical infrastructure, publicize the event, and generate related media.
As indicated by GosuGamers, the specific sum offered hinges on the magnitude of the tournament, specifically taking into consideration the quantity of participating gamers and overall subscriptions. On GosuGamers’ sanctioned web page, it is articulated that they provide economic grants reaching as high as $400 (~£296) for managers who operate on the platform contingent upon a ‘tiered arrangement and efficiency benchmarks.’
Bryan Huang, Director of Growth and Strategy at GosuGamers, mentioned: “The inauguration of the GosuBattles Grant Programme embodies our dedication to structuring grassroots esports from the fundamental level. This enterprise furnishes local managers with the funding, instruments, and exposure required to actualize their tournaments and establish enduring communities focused around them.”
To make an application for financial aid, applicants are obligated to file a requisition a minimum of two months prior to the commencement of the tournament and adhere to the established terms and provisions. While it is presently restricted to India and the Philippines, GosuGamers suggests the potential for expansion into additional nations going forward.
GosuBattles extends the capacity for non-professional managers to administer comprehensive tournaments for various games, including Mobile Legends: Bang Bang and Honor of Kings. The tournament platform refines the procedures for registration, bracket construction, match result reporting, and generation of post-event media for heightened viewer satisfaction.
GosuGamers’ distinct tournament infrastructure supports a diverse collection of esports categories, spanning from First-Person Shooter titles like Counter-Strike 2 and Overwatch 2, to well-known Multiplayer Online Battle Arenas such as League of Legends and Dota 2. Be that as it may, the financial aid remains permissible for any competitive game, including chess.
