With game streaming and esports, we are witnessing the rise of a completely new category in entertainment and at Loco, we are excited to serve this ecosystem.

Leveraging this first of its kind, gaming talk-show, we were able to tap into the potential fan base of gamers and gain momentum for this rapidly scaling industry in India.
