Kinguin&Friends Warsaw Event Recap

WARSAW, POLAND, February 1, 2018 – Yesterday marked the first Kinguin&Friends event of 2018, and it was a very special Kinguin&Friends at that. Many members of the Kinguin community showed up to take part in the talks and panels offered by European esports’ best and brightest. We covered a large variety of topics, all the way from investing in esports and future innovation for teams and other esports organizations. But that wasn’t all…

MC² with Viktor Wanli and Anna Streżyńska

Kinguin CEO, Viktor Wanli, and former Polish Minister of Digitization, Anna Streżyńska, announced the formation of a new technology company – MC². This new company will set a new standard in blockchain and smart technologies around the world, offering services for implementation of smart technologies, training and certification, consultation and much more.
