A new competition launching this week will help and encourage college-aged women who are pursuing careers in esports.
The 1,000 Dreams Fund (1DF), a national nonprofit that offers micro-grants to support the dreams of young women, is partnering with headset maker HyperX, entertainment company Allied Esports, and Samsung Electronics-owned HARMAN. 1DF will award $1,000 grants and behind-the-scenes VIP experiences to up to nine young women pursuing careers in esports and gaming.
Over the four-week competition, women can enter the inaugural BroadcastHER Academy Challenge to win a grant and an all-expenses paid trip to Allied Esports’ global flagship venue, HyperX Esports Arena Las Vegas. There, they’ll work side-by-side with production and executive teams to produce an event.
