United Gamers offers training and health services to esports players through a digital and scalable tool. With just one prototype, they have achieved more than 27,000 users and an eCPI < 0.5 euros. 

To quote Bill Gross, a renowned tech investor in Silicon Valley, there are three key ingredients that dilute the risk of an early stage startup: the team, the timing and the idea.

United Gamers has an empowered team to execute the company's vision. It has an energetic and 200% dedicated management team, a four-person development and design team, and a product team consisting of physical activity and sports science graduates, a professor of coaching and a professional League of Legends coach.

Timing is excellent. The video games market has established itself as one of the most attractive markets today given its large size (2.9BN players and more than 170BN revenues) and its constant upward trend (the industry has experienced a 154% growth compared to 2012). 

Specifically, League of Legends has over 120M monthly active players and the World Finals has more millions of viewers than the NBA Finals since 2016. 

Earlier this year, FCBarcelona, Koi (team owned by Ibai Llanos and Gerard Piqué), Heretics (team owned by youtuber TheGrefg), Case Esports (team owned by Real Madrid midfielder Carlos Casemiro), AYM Esports (team owned by Manchester City defender Aymeric Laporte) and Rebels Gaming (team owned by Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea) among others have entered the League of Legends competition in Spain.

The duel between Ibai Llanos' team KOI and TheGrefg's team Heretics had more spectators than half of the matches of the day in La Liga.

These players have no tools to train with and there is no company in the world that trains League of Legends skills with drills and methodology in the same way that United Gamers does.

The professional who understands training and knows how to train is the scientist of physical activity and sport. The idea was born from several of these professionals and one of them is a professor. They know very well the needs of this group and how to create high performance in them. 

They have conducted a pilot study, at the University of Barcelona, to measure the effectiveness of the programme on the League of Legends skill currently being trained. Subjects of different levels participated and improved from 23% to 138% of the trained skill in just 3 weeks, while the subject who only played the video game improved by 13%. This study confirms that the methodology works.

Given the timing and the market we are in, someone is going to have to train these digital athletes. If anyone can create the ultimate holistic training tool in the best way, covering every gamer's needs, it's the team at United Gamers.
