The sponsorship of by Eduvos with RGB Gaming at CPT 2023 aims to not only promote esports but through this initiative, both parties aim to further the academic interest in esports in the educational sector and the development of the sport in general.

Both RGB Gaming and Eduvos believe that esports holds value beyond just teaching students how to game. Esports holds the potential to foster a sense of community and inclusivity as anyone can partake.

As a higher education institution, Eduvos is excited about the academic opportunities that esports can provide students. Esports provides a bridge to STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Maths) fields as teams must analyse data, review their strategies and learn to understand the computer hardware and software.
