ABOUT US
Horizon Union is a creator-first esports agency.
Established in 2017, we work closely and collaboratively with some of the most exciting creators in the industry; helping them achieve their aspirations, whilst building extensive brand affinity across the globe.
Our comprehensive knowledge of the gaming industry and esports communities, combined with our digital know-how, allows us to work with creators to develop and deliver the highest quality content across multiple platforms.
We offer a wide range of services to our diverse and robust roster of 45+ exclusive creators, including Talent Management, Content Development and Creator Strategy but to name a few. Since inception, we’ve had a key focus on creators – helping them evolve, and reinventing the way people engage with esports.
We believe the next generation of growth will not ride on the coattails of purely professional teams, but also the personalities of the individual creators that power them.
