Organization Description:
Mission Control exists to gather and grow community. We do this by empowering organizations to build and engage their communities through recreational esports with our B2B Esports Community Management Platform.
More specifically, Mission Control is a B2B SaaS platform for rec league esports. For players, it is a mobile app where gamers can join recreational gaming leagues, similar to their local adult softball league or college intramurals - but with video games. Gamers join leagues hosted by organizations like local parks departments, college recreation departments, LAN Centers, or other groups. Mission Control manages the league schedule, validates scores, and determines the champion while also serving as a forum for league members and friends.
On the other side, organizations use Mission Control to gather their community, host leagues of various game titles, and manage their esports operations. Mission Control is a great tool for organizations to expand their recreational offerings, create new revenue streams, and learn more about their community.
Mission Control places high value on the character and culture of its team, and is made up of driven, playful, open, and curious teammates.
