The London-based esports organization aims to gain deeper insights into the performance of its commercial activations.
The London-based esports organization Fnatic has entered into a partnership with Shikenso Analytics, a firm specializing in marketing and sponsorship measurement within the gaming and esports sectors. The primary objective of this collaboration is to leverage Shikenso’s artificial intelligence-powered tools to quantify the effectiveness of Fnatic’s various marketing initiatives. By integrating these analytical capabilities, the organization aims to gain deeper insights into the performance of its sponsorship activations across live streams, video content, partner integrations, and social media channels.
While the financial terms and the specific duration of the agreement remain undisclosed, the partnership reflects a broader industry trend toward data-driven sponsorship evaluation. Fnatic, which maintains a significant competitive presence in titles such as League of Legends, Counter-Strike 2, Rainbow Six: Siege, and Valorant, will utilize these metrics to optimize value for its existing commercial partners, including Jack Link’s, Displate, Chillblast, and Inzone.
This deal positions Fnatic among a growing roster of esports entities that have adopted Shikenso’s technology to refine their commercial strategies. Other notable organizations and companies currently utilizing these analytics services include G2 Esports, Ninjas in Pyjamas, FURIA, and Turtle Beach. The move underscores the increasing importance of sophisticated data analytics in justifying and maximizing sponsorship investments within the professional esports landscape.
