Blue Star Capital plc is pleased to announce that Diemens Esports (formerly The Cubs Esports), one of its esports investee companies, has announced its intention to merge with Critical Hit Entertainment (CHE).
The merged entity, which will continue to trade under the name CHE, is expected to be one of the largest esport service infrastructure providers in Australia with combined revenue for 2019 of AUS $600,000.

Their global reputation, capabilities and ambitions combined with our unique product offerings and talented team will provide the esports market both in Australia and in Asia an exceptional product offering.”
