Indian esports platform Gamerji has raised $1.1m (~£833,497) during its pre-season Series A funding round.
According to the release, the funding will be used to ‘build social features’ within the platform alongside helping expand Gamerji into South East Asian and MENA regions. The round was led by investment firm Unicorn India Ventures.
Founded in 2019, Gamerji provides players with a platform to compete and host tournaments “bridging the gap” between amateur and professional competition.
Following its seed round in December 2020, Gamerji is said to have significantly increased its player base, with over 200 tournaments across multiple titles now taking place daily.
