Joining us today to bring a different perspective of the esports industry is Jason Chung, Esports Business Professor and Attorney, Executive Director of Esports at the University of New Haven, and a lifelong gamer. 

Jason’s background in law and business offers a refreshing look at the industry, thinking of esports as a fertile ground for pro gamers, entrepreneurs, and professionals from virtually any industry. 

Our conversation revolves around the preconceived ideas of what a prototypical gamer is, resulting in a limitation when talking about the positive aspects of gaming. Jason shared his thoughts on how good games are at educating and how entertaining it is to learn through them. We also talk about Jason’s unique approach to teaching, providing his students with specific tools, and the importance of creating more conversations about health, nutrition, and wellness in esports.
