Partnership deal signed with Secretlab

Guild Esports PLC (LSE: GILD; OTCQB: GULDF), a global teams organisation and lifestyle brand, is pleased to announce that it has signed a one-year partnership deal with Secretlab, under which the global chair specialist company becomes the Official Gaming Chair Partner of the Sky Guild Gaming Centre.

The terms of the deal are subject to commercial confidentiality. Secretlab will provide the Sky Guild Gaming Centre with its top-of-the-range gaming chairs for use by Guild's professional players as they compete in the world's most competitive esports competitions.

Headquartered in Singapore, Secretlab is a global chair specialist that was co-founded in 2014 by former esports professionals Ian Ang and Alaric Choo. Today, Secretlab operates in more than 50 countries and has over two million users worldwide.

Jasmine Skee, CEO of Guild Esports, commented: "We are excited about our partnership with Secretlab. The Sky Guild Gaming Centre is rapidly becoming a hub for high-level esports performance. Our professional teams and players are among the best and Secretlab's ergonomic chairs will ensure our athletes will have the best equipment to achieve peak performance."
