Two UK-based brands are working together to make esports production more accessible to students across the country.
In the early days of 2025, UK-based esports education provider NTesports announced a notable partnership with the independent esports broadcast production company ZMS Esports Studio. The agreement aimed to make professional-grade esports broadcasting accessible to grassroots organisations, educational institutions, and smaller esports events. According to the partners, esports production has long been seen as expensive, complex, and only available for large events. NTesports and ZMS are working to change that. To understand the deal itself and its background, IBC365 sat down with Nik Turner, the Founder of NTesports, and Damon Bates, the Founder of ZMS Esports Studio.
