In five years, Furia managed to take Brazil’s name to the world with pride

Founded in 2017, FURIA was one of the great revelations of Counter-Strike in South America and became a management model in eSports that put Brazil at the table with giants. On its fifth birthday, Andrá Akkari, national poker ace and Co-founders/CEO of franchise, writes an emotional letter where he reviews the origins of Furia, its achievements to date and what is to come: “We are not going to stop in Brazil, our impact has already started in the USA and you can trust us, watch the show that is to come!”

Five years ago we were just seven people, today we have more than 200 employees.

An eSports organization that formed a family not only behind the scenes but mainly with a deafening, engaged crowd that lives FURIA every day in a hallucinated way!

Our athletes, streamers, influencers make this magic happen. They are true evolution machines.

Every week they have a high level performance, have a content show, and social impact.

All this with the pride of taking Brazil's name to the world, and taking entertainment wherever we go.

FURIA has become synonymous with the maximum evolution of human beings in their ability to reinvent themselves and face their greatest challenges. It's playoff, it's final, it's a title in practically everything that participates. When you see this happening, you sometimes don't realize what's going on behind, the dozens of hours daily invested in training, the exhausting psychological preparation to deal with pressure, the strategic meetings, the medical and technical evaluations to form the largest group of competition and entertainment that Brazil has ever seen.

Bold? Have no doubt, but all this is to seek training and change in social reality. We need to take the Brazilian mindset to the highest levels, with education, training, winning theses in the long term.

And we won't stop in Brazil, our impact in the US has already started and you can trust, watch the show to come!

We want to positively affect the minds of young people around the world, with no limits to dream big!

The magic also comes from our partners and sponsors who believe in the same principles as us and together we are making history. The renewal rate of these relationships is close to 100%, which shows a unique synergy in Brazilian sport. Nobody sponsors FURIA just to put a logo on our shirt, it's much more than that, it's a daily relationship, it's activation for every corner, it's the search for maximum alignment between the desire of these companies and where we can collaborate with these missions.

Here's my thanks to all of them, Red Bull Grupo Santander Betway Group AOC HyperX PokerStars Twitch ClearSale and the new giants that are coming in the next few days!

Yesterday we had Rocket League playoffs, today we have League of Legends playoffs, next week we have CSGO, while this is happening there are more than sixty streamers generating live content and hundreds working to make everything perfect behind the camera, with a lot of determination, quality and diversity.

Join us, be FURIA
