GGWP Academy was born out of a mom’s support for her pro player son
GGWP CEO and Founder Jax Garrett initially set up the platform in 2018 to help her son, Max “Orange Ocelot” Garrett, who was one of the youngest esports pros and YouTube creators in Australia.
With Jax Garret’s communication background, GGWP went from passion project to full-time business with partner brands such as Logitech, EA Games, and Warner Music, to name a few.
“We are already working with our brand partner Logitech and approximately 20 other brands to deliver gigs to gamers globally in the coming two months and the diversity of campaigns is astounding,” shared Garrett. “From headphones to games publishers, sneakers to streetwear and snacks to supplements, we are bringing brands to gaming.”
