Hans Christian Dürr joins Riot Berlin as Head of Esports DACH

When I announced our plans to launch a Riot office in downtown Berlin to level up what we do for our German speaking players I started looking for local and global talent that best fits our vision what we want to do for gamers in our region.

Finding the right mix of player focus, entrepreneurial spirit, and seniority was never going to be easy. And once you do, you need to give time and space to conclude previous projects. I knew this from my own experience.

Therefore I am glad that with the start of May 2018 Hans joined us as Head of Esports DACH. His lifelong dedication to games and esports will be of tremendous help building up a strong German esports ecosystem for League of Legends, for teams, clubs, and players who enjoy the fun and thrill of playing or watching competitions.

We are also building up the rest of our senior leadership team. If you want to help me grow our Berlin publishing office and delight German, Austrian, and Swiss gamers have a look here: https://www.riotgames.com/en/work-with-us/offices/berlin
