To inspire gamers and assist them in recognizing their latent skills, we will be partnering with more such events in colleges and institutions going forward.” He further added, “As India is the youngest country in the world and gaming is its fastest-growing sector, we need to make as many reforms to the gaming ecosystem as possible to ensure its prosperity and elevate it to the next level.
