Jakarta, 10 September 2021 – IndiHome is the leading fixed broadband service owned by PT Telkom Indonesia (Persero) Tbk (Telkom),  launched the Limitless ESport Academy (LEAD) as it is committed to always presenting innovation and electronic sports (eSports) in Indonesia.

LEAD by IndiHome is an eSport academy. Its concept is athlete enablement, which aims to empower and train a gamer (player) who initially played games as a hobby, to become a professional player (pro-player) with the mentality of an athlete.

It is worth noting that not all pro players are eSports athletes, but eSports athletes are definitely pro-players. The basic difference between a pro-player and an eSport athlete is in the mental aspect. Those eSport athletes are the chosen ones who are ready to build up their sportsmanship.

Similar to other sports' athletes, eSports athletes also need regular training to be more qualified and be more sportif. They routinely improve their skills, master tricks and strategies of the games, teamwork, discipline, and maintain a healthy diet.

This is where LEAD by IndiHomte plays a role to foster and nurture eSport athletes' new talents to be eSports athletes who are tough and have distinctive characteristics. These prospective eSport athletes will  also have a great opportunity to work and make the nation proud in various national and even international tournaments.

Venusiana, Telkom Consumer Service Director said that by embodying the #BerlatihTanpaBatas or Exercise Without Limits, LEAD by IndiHome is expected to produce the next Indonesian eSport athletes  who would be able to compete in the international arena.

"We believe that one of the important aspects in the eSport ecosystem is grooming new athletes. Therefore, LEAD by IndiHome was established and is committed to producing as many eSport athletes as possible who have international spirit and competitiveness. LEAD by IndiHome is a learning place for players to become excellent eSport athletes,” Venusiana said.

Venusiana also said that as the preferred internet in Indonesia or #InternetnyaIndonesia, IndiHome is committed to induce new spirit and perspectives on gamers, that being a gamer is more than just a hobby and they can become professional who would contribute to Indonesia.
