A “Match” made in heaven: We’re officially collaborating with esports organisation KAMK.GG under Kajaani University of Applied Sciences to support the Finnish gaming community and local artists.

24 March 2022

We’ve hit the 5 million posters sold milestone, and now we’ve set our sights on bigger and better things. Our passionate community of collectors has always been obsessed with gaming, and that’s why we’re absolutely thrilled to be meeting them in the esports arena through our partnership with KAMK.GG and Kajaani University of Applied Sciences.

We’ve always known that our unique metal posters are in a “league” of their own in terms of premium quality and the incredible geeky community that returns to our marketplace daily to find more passions, with over a million artworks by tens of thousands of artists worldwide. We’ve continued to break into the gaming collectors world through collaborations with world-renowned brands such as Marvel, DC, Netflix, Cyberpunk 2077, The Witcher, and others to bring every Displater the best gaming and movie posters on the net. The majority of our collectors are from the US, UK, France and Germany; now we’re excited to be reaching out to a fantastic community of gamers in Finland through this partnership 💪.

This partnership is an excellent fit because Kajaani University of Applied Sciences hosts many unique degrees such as Esports Business and student-owned and operated esports organisation KAMK.GG strives to offer its community members an open and welcoming environment to pursue their wide range of unique passions academically, creatively, and competitively. Therefore, it’s a pleasure to be partnering with them throughout 2022.

Both KAMK.GG and Us share a similar vision of supporting nerd culture and providing avenues for fans worldwide to showcase their fandoms through community-designed art pieces. We can definitely say that KAMK is a group of passionate people that we’re excited to partner with and grow into this next phase of awesomeness alongside us!

Even from our initial discussions, it became clear that the Displate team completely understood our mission of inclusivity and innovation in Finland's gaming and esports space. We had previously been loyal customers of the brand as we outfitted our various esports facilities here on campus throughout the last three years, so when the opportunity arose to work alongside Displate, it was an easy choice.

- said Richard Withers, Esports Development Manager at Kajaani University of Applied Sciences.

We’re stoked to hear that Richard and his team have collected a few Displates over the past few years! So, before this collab, they were passionate Displaters, but now, It’s on a whole new level.

What can everyone expect from this collaboration?😎

During our collaboration, we’re committed to providing support and sponsorship to KAMK.GG during main Finn events like ASSEMBLY Winter 2022. In addition, we will collaborate on video creation and other art content production activities and operate a unique online store in our marketplace where University students can showcase their artwork online. KAMK.GG is bringing some of their most talented artists from various degrees to create a unique line of Displates. All proceeds of these artworks will go directly to the artists. As the popularity of their artworks grows through this collaboration, it will allow these passionate individuals to reach new heights!

We are very happy that Displate can take part in the promotion of talented creators from Finland. It's a very interesting experience and a great joy for us as we are always close to people with passions. We hope that our cooperation will be long-lasting. We keep our fingers crossed for that and are happy for the next steps and some great upcoming events.
