Kajaani University of Applied Sciences is happy to announce a new partnership with Hitmarker, the largest video game and esports job platform in the world, throughout the 2021/22 academic year!

“We are looking forward to our continued relationship with Hitmarker to improve the esports offerings available on campus and provide additional opportunities to our passionate student base while highlighting the various career opportunities available in the space, outside of playing professionally. Our organizations share similar values in advancing the esports education ecosystem to further legitimize and professionalize the industry, so this was an easy decision for both parties.” says our Esports Development Manager; Richard Withers.

Richard Huggan, Managing Director of Hitmarker, had this to say regarding the partnership agreement: “We’re very pleased to be able to support KAMK and its students by officially partnering with the university. We’re looking forward to getting to know the students and being able to help them on their path to the esports industry. We hope that sharing our knowledge of the global hiring market can help all of them better understand how to put their qualifications to good use now and in the future.”
