Introduction
Follow Up is a non-profit organization that I founded in 2012 and which aims to organize E-sport events in France.
Achievement
I served as an event manager for major gaming brands such as Red Bull, Bandai Namco, and Capcom. In addition, I organized my own E-sport competitions through my non-profit organization. The objective was to host large-scale E-sport events that would attract professional gamers, enthusiasts, and sponsors, both nationally and internationally.
Objective
Our organization specialized in competitions on fighting games such as Street Fighter and Tekken. We brought our experience in this field to various partners wishing to offer E-sport events on fighting games. As we were a small team, I had various tasks within the organization to ensure that the event ran as smoothly as possible.
Actions
Secured Sponsorships: Identified, approached, and negotiated with corporate sponsors, ensuring adequate funding and brand partnerships for each event.
Venue Selection & Logistics: Conducted site visits, evaluated venue suitability for large crowds, negotiated contracts, and coordinated all logistics (equipment, staging, bandwidth requirements).
Staff Management: Recruited and trained teams of volunteers and temporary staff, assigning clear roles for registration, stage management, and technical support.
Social Media Promotion: Developed targeted social media campaigns (Facebook, Twitter, Twitch, YouTube) to build hype before the events, live-stream competitions, and engage viewers globally.
Results
Through these initiatives, I successfully organized large-scale E-sport competitions in multiple locations across France, as well as in the USA, UK, and Belgium. Events saw over 1,000 competitors on-site and reached peak online viewership of 100,000, thereby increasing brand visibility for sponsors, building a robust gaming community, and establishing a strong reputation for both the partnering companies and my non-profit organization.
