The Argentinian esports organization will rely on best-in-class analytics tools going forward

Frankfurt am Main (Germany), October 4th 2023 - KRÜ Esports, the pioneering Argentinian esports organization founded by Sergio “Kun” Agüero, has embarked on a new journey by joining forces with the industry-leading sponsorship analytics company, Shikenso Analytics. Driven by a mission to bridge the gap between the world of traditional professional sports and the ever-expanding universe of electronic sports and digital media, KRÜ is dedicated to challenging and destigmatizing prevailing socio-cultural perceptions surrounding video gaming.

Central to KRÜ's mission is the cultivation of professional, transparent relationships with its partners. In a strategic move to advance these objectives, KRÜ has entered a data partnership with Shikenso Analytics, harnessing the power of cutting-edge AI technology. Shikenso's best-in-class AI technology will provide KRÜ with a comprehensive suite of tools to analyse partnerships across streaming and social channels, enabling precise measurement and benchmarking of partner performance

“We are very happy to announce our partnership with Shikenso. This agreement will allow us to better understand and deliver content tailored to our sponsors and fans. Through Shikenso´s data collection and analytic capabilities, we will be able to measure KRÜ´s brand value generated for our sponsors and it will also help us to have access to potential clients who are willing to arrive to Latin America. In this way, I believe we´ll also contribute to keep promoting the growth and visibility of the esports industry”, said Bruno Mazzucchelli, Marketing Director at KRÜ Esports.

“I welcome the growing involvement of professional athletes in esports, such as van Dijk and Beckham. Their presence not only enhances the industry's popularity but also contributes to its promotion. Establishing a partnership with Kun Agüero's team, KRÜ Esports, adds to the excitement. Despite being a young team, they have already achieved significant milestones in Rocket League and collaborate with well-known, influential partners. Aligned with our commitment to transparency, we eagerly anticipate supporting them with our solution”, said Arwin Fallah Shirazi, CEO & Co-Founder at Shikenso GmbH.
