We didn’t just produce a tournament. We built a moment that will live forever in Indian esports. From 96 of the country's best BGMI teams, to a record ₹4 crore prize pool, to over 60 million people tuning in. BMPS 2025 was more than numbers. It was passion, grit, heartbreak, and glory. And at the heart of it all was a team that believes that India deserves world-class esports. That our stories, our players, and our fans deserve a stage big enough to match their dreams. At NODWIN Gaming, we engineered every second of BMPS 2025 for KRAFTON India, from our high-spec broadcast control room in Delhi to the roaring LAN Finale at Yashobhoomi Convention Centre, where Team Aryan x TMG lifted the trophy while earning the right to carry India’s flag to the Esports World Cup. This is what it looks like when Indian esports rises. This is what happens when passion meets precision. This is NODWIN.

We’re excited to share that our Co-Founder & Managing Director, Akshat Rathee, took the stage at the #Storyboard18DigitalEntertainmentSummit to spotlight how NODWIN Gaming is powering the future of esports, creator ecosystems, and India’s digital entertainment economy. From discussing esports as a strategic export to envisioning a future where India creates its own global esports IPs, Akshat offered insights into how gaming can shape culture, commerce, and soft power. “Esports will only grow as strong as the games we build. One day, the world may compete in an esport born from India, be it a cricket title, chess, or even Snakes & Ladders.” As India steps confidently into the spotlight as a global M&E leader, conversations like these are essential to shaping the roadmap ahead. A big thanks to Storyboard18, CNBC-TV18, and Forbes India for curating a platform for the next wave of digital disruptors. #NODWINGaming #AkshatRathee #EsportsIndia #DigitalEntertainmentSummit #Storyboard18 #GamingLeadership #IndiaSoftPower #EsportsInnovation #BuildInIndiaPlayWorldwide
