Buddy system

To deliver you the best experience, various esports industry experts in marketing, reporting, finance, partnership management and many other areas were carefully selected and matched with each successful Intel FutureGen candidate to provide the most relevant insights to the career path they are interested in pursuing.

After being paired up, the candidates then have the opportunity to have at least 3 one-to-one calls with their 'buddy' in which they can get invaluable insights and advice about their dream career path.

We were fortunate enough to be able to expand the cohort of 2021/2022 to 20 candidates! 

Want to be part of the 2022/2023 cohort? 

If you think you've got what it takes to join the new cohort or know someone who would be interested, sign-ups for the next cohort will open later on in the year and successful candidates will be announced in winter.

Applications will be initially reviewed and shortlisted by staff, and the final selection will be made by our chosen panel of industry professional judges that will be part of the program for the rest of the year.
