Cloud9 launches collegiate initiative with Uconnect Esports

Professional esports organisation Cloud9 today announced the formation of Cloud9 University, a collegiate and university outreach programme powered by Uconnect Esports.

Cloud9 University will use the Uconnect competitive platform to host collegiate tournaments, whilst also providing alternative ways to help college students network and learn about the industry.

“We know this has been a highly sought-after initiative by the community, and we’re excited to be bringing the next generation of esports talent a thrilling collection of events and resources in collaboration with Uconnect Esports,” reads the announcement post.

Uconnect Esports and Cloud9 first announced their alliance back in August.
