BACKFORCE extends long-standing partnership with BIG through 2028

Berlin International Gaming (BIG) is proud to announce the extension of our longest-standing partnership: BACKFORCE, a premium German gaming chair manufacturer, will continue to support BIG and its athletes for another three years, until at least mid-2028.
Since the beginning of our partnership in September 2019, BACKFORCE has been a fundamental pillar of support. Their gaming chairs, “Made in Germany”, have set new ergonomic and quality standards in the industry and have helped our athletes perform at the highest level. Whether it was during our CS:GO team’s rise to the top of the world rankings or our recent international victories across various titles, BACKFORCE has always had our backs. Also, during challenging times, they keep supporting BIG, which shows their dedication to the German and European esport scene.
More than just a supplier, BACKFORCE has also been a driving force in our content strategy. These series will continue, alongside new content formats and offline activations in the years ahead. We can also announce that they will be part of our next Overtime party at IEM Cologne, stay tuned for more information!
The extension of our collaboration is a testament to the mutual trust, shared values, and the strong personal connection between our organisations. We are incredibly thankful for BACKFORCE’s continued belief in BIG and the support for our community. #GOBIG
Statement Daniel Finkler, CEO of BIG: BACKFORCE is not only our longest-standing partner, but they are also one of our most loyal. Since 2019, they have provided our professional teams with what I consider the best gaming chairs in the world. Their support has always gone far beyond the commercial side: every person at BACKFORCE genuinely cares about BIG, our community, and the future of German esports. Extending our partnership for another three years means a lot to us. We’re proud and thankful to continue this journey together with Head of BACKFORCE Stefan “slame” Krumme and his team!
Statement Stefan Krumme, Head of BACKFORCE: It was actually back at IEM Cologne in 2018 when Backforce decided to partner with BIG. We saw the passion, the surroundings, and everyone welcoming people with an open heart. We already went through highs and lows, and supported the players as well with some warm words after losses or wins. The mutual trust between Backforce and BIG is unmatched. It´s easy to switch to a more successful team, that’s just not who we are and what you should be. Support the team when it’s needed the most. Stay with them and rise again. I personally just have one wish at this point. I attended so many Tier 1 tournaments, seeing other teams we support, I would love so much to see BIG on a stage again. #GEMEINSAM!
