We have experience with events ranging from 100-300 in size and are looking to cement ourselves as the premier Smash Event in the Midwest. Melee, Smash 4 and Project M will all be streamed with commentary by local talent. The Columbus Smash Scene has grown tremendously over the past few years and we are responding to the passion shown by our community in Ohio by hosting such a huge event. I hope you will consider coming to our event because we have so much to offer!E-Sports Initiative (formerly OSI) is a nonprofit student organization that partners with companies in the digital media and e-sports industries. We equip entry-level talent with the skills, insight, and experiences that will help them launch their careers in the rapidly-maturing interactive media and video game development space, while connecting companies in the industry to this talent pool. As of fall 2013, E-Sports Initiative is focused on addressing the specific subset of STEM education that relates to the video game industry- computer science and engineering, data analytics, mathematics, and technical design and graphics. We aim to provide certification programs, unique insight into the industry, and networking and leadership development opportunities to future employees in the industry on a national scale through our network.After the massive success of Shuffle V and Shuffle VI , we hope to make Shuffle VII even better!Great Hall Meeting Room First Floor at the Ohio Union on The Ohio State University's Campus1739 N High St.Columbus, OH 43210Amazing Venue that we have had the pleasure of using for almost all of our events.
