Nominations for the 2017 Industry eSports Awards Announced
|
The time has finally arrived and the nominations for the upcoming 2017 Industry eSports Awards were released to the world last Wednesday during a livestream that was held on Twitch.
The ceremony for these awards is set to be held at the Brewery in London on the 13th of November. The idea of this set of awards is to give people the chance to honor and support all of the people and organizations that have been pushing the world of eSports from strength to strength. This covers everyone from videographers to pro players and team owners. The 2017 Industry eSports Awards also includes hardware companies that will have the chance to scoop up some awards.
There are five steps involved in actually winning one of these awards. We are currently in the middle of the 2nd phase. Currently, the public has the chance to make their votes for every single one of the categories that have been outlined below.
This will then be followed with judging panel that was carefully selected doing a full review of the nominations. It will be at the end of the year during the black tie ceremony in London that the winners will finally be announced.
Make sure to vote for your favorites and you can check out the list of who was nominated below.
