Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) is announcing a new partnership with esports organization Evil Geniuses (EG). HPE offers state-of-the-art technology to help EG enhance its data analytics capabilities.
With a multi-year contract, Hewlett Packard Enterprise supports evil geniuses with industry-leading artificial intelligence services and solutions. Evil Geniuses plans to use this technology to enhance the player’s talent pipeline and ability to identify winning gameplay strategies.
“Evil Geniuses is well-known throughout the industry as the premier destination for brands looking to enter the esports space. Continuing this trend by becoming the first official esports partner of Hewlett Packard Enterprise. We’re excited to do that, “Evil Geniuses’ Leo Edwards said in a statement to GamesBeat.
It’s not just technology, it’s technology and service
It’s not just about hardware partnerships. Evil Geniuses will be able to access technologies and services as they become available. With the new partnership with Hewlett Packard Enterprise, esports organizations will eventually integrate HPE Green Lake. GreenLake is a service that brings cloud-like flexibility to locations such as data centers and remote offices.
Evil Geniuses will be able to use HPE GreenLake to enhance additional advanced AI innovations. Specifically, we will focus on player performance and EG speed, agility, and competitiveness enhancements. EG is about to make a big impact in three core areas: talent discovery, talent development, and gaming strategy. This can happen, for example, through a powerful analysis of gameplay data around the world. Or it can happen by designing a strategy using AI and machine learning.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise does more than just provide hardware. Offers options.
“The HPE name is globally recognized for its state-of-the-art technology solutions and the ability to capture organizational data, unleash its value, and accelerate outcomes that improve the way people live and work.” Edwards added. “As the first move in esports data and analytics, the greatest impact of this partnership with HPE came from the opportunity to take Evil Geniuses’ data and analytics program to an unprecedented level in the esports industry. In addition, we will pioneer real-time data analysis during competition while advancing EG’s already industry-leading talent discovery and talent development methods. “
Technology is technology, service is service, but esports teams want to win
EG hopes that this partnership will strengthen the organization. However, some of its goals are not business-focused. EG is an esports organization with a history of over 20 years and wants to break the record.
EG hopes that this partnership will develop a strategy that will lead to the victory of the League of Legends World Championships.
“This may seem unrealistic because of the fact that the North American team has never won the world,” said evil genius Nicole Lapointe Jameson. “But through industry-leading data and analytics infused with HPE’s technology, we’re able to advance talent development, coaching, and in-game analytics like never before, taking teams to new heights. I can do it. .”
