Let’s take a look at the companies that are helping to make this event super exciting for everyone.
The Big Three Associate Sponsors of College Rivals Season 2
In Season 2, three major brands have joined as Associate Sponsors—Red Bull, Nissin Cup Noodles, and Kreo. These companies are adding a lot of flavor, energy, and creativity to the event. Here’s what each of them is doing to make College Rivals more thrilling.
- Red Bull: Known for its energy drinks, Red Bull has come back to College Rivals after being part of the first season too. This time, they’re bringing racing simulators and giving away product samples in interactive zones. Imagine zooming around in a simulator as if you’re in a real car race! Red Bull’s setup lets students feel the fast-paced energy of esports, almost as if they’re on the track themselves.
- Nissin Cup Noodles: As the official Snacking Partner, Nissin is providing snacks that are perfect for gamers—quick, easy, and tasty. They’re offering samples of their noodles so that students can grab a quick bite between games without needing a full meal. Nissin knows that when you’re gaming, sometimes you just need a quick snack, and they’re right there to help.
- Kreo: Kreo is the Kreative Partner, bringing cool, branded gaming gear to the event. They’ve got interactive activities like typing tests and giveaways, which give students a chance to win and experience top-notch gaming peripherals. So not only do they get to play games, but they also get to test some fancy equipment and maybe even take some home.
TVS Apache: The Co-Presenting Sponsor of College Rivals Season 2
TVS Apache, a famous motorcycle brand, has also joined in as a co-presenting sponsor. Their idea is to connect with young people who love action and adventure—just like gamers. At the event, they’ve set up displays of their latest bikes, and students even get the chance to try out test rides. This is a pretty cool way for TVS Apache to show off their bikes, especially because it matches the thrill and speed that gaming fans love.
Vimal Sumbly, the head of TVS’s premium business, said that the spirit of College Rivals goes hand-in-hand with Apache’s brand image. They want to inspire young students not just to love gaming but also to think about riding and the excitement that comes with it. For TVS, it’s all about pushing boundaries, whether it’s in gaming or on the road.
Well, College Rivals Season 2 has grown a lot this year. The event has reached more than 20 cities and 50 colleges across India, with over 200,000 students participating. And there’s a big prize up for grabs—INR 50,00,000 plus a professional gaming contract! The event kicked off in July 2024, and the competition will wrap up with a grand finale in early 2025.
With all these sponsors on board, College Rivals Season 2 is set to be an exciting and memorable event for everyone involved. The organizers are thrilled to have brands that bring unique experiences to the students.
