What for many could be just entertainment, both WIPR and the producers of the new program ‘Puerto Rico Esports League’, which starts next Monday at 4pm, is a highly creative opportunity to educate and raise awareness about the potential of esports. The foregoing, in terms of the development of skills, abilities and competencies for life, employability and entrepreneurship among students and professional communities.
As everyone knows, the electronic sports industry has been growing, locally and globally, reaching multimillion-dollar revenue figures and representing great opportunities for job creation in various disciplines.

For this reason, we saw in the ‘Puerto Rico Esports League’ program the relevance of opening up diverse ideas on how to enter the world of work in a practical and positive way for everyone,” said Eric Delgado, president of WIPR.
In this way, and creating an avant-garde vision of integrating the development of ‘Esports’ with WIPR’s commitment as drivers of innovation and supporting initiatives that promote this sport, we present ‘Puerto Rico Esports League’ the first program of its kind produced entirely on the Island.
