This landmark deal marks a particularly exciting milestone for SK Gaming as we enter our 25th anniversary as a club.

FC Köln, Daimler AG, Deutsche Telekom and Managing Director Alexander T. Müller. As a company and brand, SK Gaming will benefit immensely from their collective expertise, network and know-how and further contribute to the growth of esports in its entirety. ### Lionel Souque, CEO of REWE Group: > We are very proud to deepen and further expand our cooperation with SK Gaming with this participation in one of the most internationally successful and well-known brands in esports. Esports is growing very dynamically both nationally and internationally and will continue to gain in attractiveness, especially among young people, in the coming years. Esports therefore has great growth potential. Both partners contribute their respective expertise and know-how and thus strengthen the German esports and gaming movement. ### **About SK Gaming** SK Gaming is a leading esports organization and one of the world’s most recognized brands in competitive video gaming.
