- The Next Level of Esports
- Diversity and Inclusion in Esports

IESF Secretary General Boban Totovski said: “We are looking forward to the largest edition of the Global Esports Executive Summit (GEES21) this year. The summit provides a platform for international Esports and sports leaders and stakeholders from IESF’s 104 member federations to openly discuss the positive synergies between traditional sports and Esports. This year’s theme of ‘Evolving and Adapting’ resonates across the entire sports industry given the changes we’ve all had to make throughout the pandemic ”
In 2021, plans have been made to allow speakers to participate and contribute both live at the venue and online, including keynote speeches and panel discussions that will be live on the GEES21 platform and on-screen at the Busan Esports Arena.
