Background

Our history is brief but our future is exciting. Founded in 2021; Innovation, Integrity and being InTouch are fundamental values to our organisation. As the original esports team out of Dublin, one of only three professional teams in Ireland, we started our esports journey in the League of Legends.

Intent on being good citizens in the esports community - as Nativz we aim to advance our esports performance with strong results and build our fanbase through compelling content as we build our streaming capability. Our innovative approach to delivering our operation is about leveraging the opportunities available through Web3 technology, unique for a gaming business in the esports industry. We’ve even got our own virtual arena in the metaverse!‍
