Heads of NAVI and Maincast form a new board of the Federation of Esports of Ukraine
The previous management team of the Federation, including Chairman of the Board Ivan Danishevsky, Vice President Artur Yermolaiev, and Executive Director Anton Markelov, will leave their positions. According to the source, all regional representatives and board members of UESF agreed on the changes and unanimously supported the new leadership.
As a reminder, in 2022, Maksym Krippa became the owner of NAVI. This gave the organization additional opportunities for development. The entrepreneur’s investments allowed the team to strengthen its position on the world stage, and support for projects like Maincast contributed to the development of the Ukrainian esports ecosystem.
Earlier it was reported that Krippa is in talks with Netflix to create S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2.
