About

E-Sport Fans International, Ltd.

Based in San Diego, CA, E-Sport Fans International (ESFI) was established in the fall of 2007 by Brent Ruiz, Gene Angel and Isaiah Petersen. ESFI's goal is to create a true e-sport media platform that will expand and grow e-sports for the future. Content standards, feature development and expansion have become stagnant while fragmentation has increased and attracting new fans is harder than ever. ESFI will begin the change at launch.
