Whereas the first business lounge took place with the backdrop of the DreamHack Summer LAN festival in Jönköping, the Stockholm event is a two-day Counter-Strike: Global Offensive tournament. The competition is part of the Intel Grand Slam challenge, which will award a $1M prize to the first CS:GO team to win four premier ESL/DreamHack Masters events.
