A Commitment to Excellence and Innovation

As a leading financial services provider in Africa, with a vast network of over 820 business locations and 39 million+ customer accounts, FirstBank is uniquely positioned to drive economic growth and empowerment. The collaboration with EStars embodies FirstBank’s commitment to innovation, youth development, and supporting emerging sectors like esports, ultimately ensuring a stable economic future for generations to come

Mags Byrne, EStars CEO stated:

โ€œWe are thrilled to be partnering with FirstBank, Nigeriaโ€™s oldest bank, to introduce our educational products to their customers.ย  Our aim is to bring educational esports to all of Africa, and innovative partnerships like this make this possibleโ€.ย

By integrating structured learning pathways into the rapidly expanding esports industry, we are providing Nigerian students with the opportunity to develop essential digital, entrepreneurial, and technical skills that are critical for the future workforce. This collaboration is about more than just gamingโ€”itโ€™s about equipping young people with the knowledge and competencies they need to thrive in a digital economy, opening doors to new career opportunities in technology, manufacturing, and beyond.”

Expressing enthusiasm about the partnership, Chukwuma Ezirim Group Executive, E-Business and Retail Products Division, FirstBank, said

“We are excited to collaborate with EStars in pioneering esports education for the youths. Esports present a new frontier of creativity, innovation and career opportunities. We recognize the vast potential of esports in shaping the future of our youth and we are ready to harness it for their benefits. By investing in esports education, we are not only opening up exciting career paths for the youths but also contributing to the growth and development of the African esports ecosystem.
