How the eSports Industry Fares Against Traditional Sports
How the eSports Industry Fares Against Traditional Sports
In just a decade, electronic sports (eSports) has evolved from an underground culture into a mainstream industry worth billions of dollars today.
The industry is growing at an explosive rate, and with major tech giants like Amazon and Google vying for a piece of the pie, the future of this industry is an exciting one.
It’s no surprise that eSports is often compared to its predecessor, traditional sports. However, eSports certainly has none of the typical confines of a traditional sport—so how does it compare in terms of audience size, market potential, and revenue?

In 2008 the EPSI network has formulated a vision and a strategic research agenda for the European Sports sector towards 2015 (SRA 2015) for the sports sector.
In 2011 a new project was started, called the Prosumer.net project , in which a joint strategic research agenda is formulated for the European Consumer Goods Industry. EPSI is involved in this project through several of its members.

The Global Sport Economy: Contemporary Issues
This book examines the global sports ecosystem through three of its central pillars: Sport marketing, sports equipment manufacture and sales, and sport governance and organization. By focusing on these three themes, the book presents a nuanced and multi-faceted view of how the global sports economy works and what its main strategic challenges and opportunities are.
Offering a balance between theory and practice, and adopting an international perspective with case studies and examples from the Americas, Europe and Asia, the book addresses key issues such as corporate social responsibility, the impact of culture on international sport business, innovation and entrepreneurship, and consumer behaviour.
The Global Sport Economy is fascinating reading for students, researchers and practitioners with an interest in sport business and management, sport marketing, the sporting goods industry and distribution and sport governance.
Introducing “Leveraging Intellectual Property in the Global Sports Economy”
A strong global IP system is what any sports fan would call clutch. Strong IP protections have the power to transform a person kicking a ball on a dirt field into a professional athlete kicking a ball under the lights of a multi-million dollar stadium filled with thousands of fans in identical jerseys waving to millions of viewers watching on screens around the world. In short, strong IP protections transform sports into a commercially productive asset.
The global market for sporting events alone in 2014 was valued at $80 billion, with a forecast 7% growth rate. The addition of sporting goods, apparel, equipment, and health and fitness spending brings that value to $700 billion. Building on these numbers and more, our new study, “Leveraging Intellectual Property in the Global Sports Economy,” quantifies sports as an asset worth 1% of global GDP
