From Car Washes to Esports Empire: Barry Louzada’s Gaming Revolution
--:--
Meet Barry Louzada, the "Godfather of South African Esports" and MD of Mettlestate, Africa’s largest gaming platform. From washing cars to buying his first console to shaping an R60 M+ industry, Barry shares:
🔹 How township #KasiFlare tournaments are creating jobs & preventing gang violence
🔹 Why esports now rivals the Super Bowl in viewership (and why brands are missing out)
🔹 The mental agility benefits of gaming (spoiler: it’s not just "screen time")
🔹 Varsity Esports – his 8-year fight to make gaming a university sport
"Gaming isn’t niche—it’s the future of entertainment, education, and economics."
