Prodigy Agency, a leading Esports talent operation, has announced that it has received some €1m of investment from Trust Esport. The agency will use such funds to aid their global expansion, support representatives and recruit new members of staff.

The Prodigy Agency currently represents around 80 Esports professional players, with the majority coming from Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, VALORANT and Rocket League. However, with Sami “Rico” Harbi having recently been hired by the agency, Prodigy have made it clear that they are looking to expand into the League of Legends scene.

What Prodigy Agency Have Had to Say on the Announcement

Speaking on the investment, Prodigy Agency CEO and Founder, Jerome Coupez, stated that: : “We are happy to welcome Trust Esport and Matthieu Dallon, a pioneer in Esports, to the Prodigy Family with whom we share a common vision of the development stakes of this ecosystem and the players, and a real passion for Esports. Trust Esport is the perfect partner to keep paving the way of the players’ representation and expand our mission and operations. I’m really looking forward to continuing developing and building the best support for our players around the world.”

Why Trust Esport Invested So Heavily in Prodigy Agency

Trust Esport was only launched back in 2018, having been established in an attempt to offer support to businesses within the Esports industry, who range in terms of the services in which they offer. As far as the company are concerned, Founder Matthieu Dallon has made it clear as to where they stand, stating: “We saw in Jérôme Coupez, Manon Lagarrigue and the entire Prodigy team an extraordinary entrepreneurial energy and benevolence, which has created a unique bond of trust with the prodigies they represent; this strength, combined with an international project and an objective of sector leadership convinced us to invest in their company and to support their vision.”

The investment received of late will certainly help Prodigy Agency as they continue to grow, while also maintaining its reputation when it comes to offering support to clients.
