At the time of writing, Levi’s is displayed alongside Twitch Student on The NUEL’s website. Earlier this year, the university esports organiser partnered with Amazon to launch Amazon University Esports in the UK, Spain, and Italy.
Levi’s launched the ‘Esports Collective supported by Levi’s’ in July, in an effort to bring the esports community together and “give them a voice.” At the same time, it entered a deal with Prime League, the official League of Legends competition for the DACH region.
Esports Insider says: The NUEL has done a great job in bringing in major companies such as Amazon and Levi’s to support its cause, elevating the state of esports in universities across the UK. We’re intrigued to see any additional activations that may come from this collaboration.
