EXCEL ESPORTS, founded in 2014 by siblings Joel and Kieran Holmes-Darby, is a prominent UK-based Gaming and Sports brand with competitive lineups in major games including Fortnite, VALORANT, FIFA, and League of Legends.
The company stands as one of the original partners in the prestigious LEC, Europe's top esports league. Highlighting its competitive edge is the inclusion of exceptional talent like Fortnite star Jaden "Wolfiez" Ashman, noted for his historic achievement as the youngest gamer to amass $1 million.
In a significant business maneuver, EXCEL ESPORTS secured a multi-year partnership with BT, a leader in UK telecommunications, boosting the brand's visibility and market position.
Their most recent financial stride is the successful closing of a €20.00M Private Equity Round in July 2021, led by notable investors such as TNF Ventures, JRJ Group, and TCIM.
