AcadArena, the home for campus gaming in the Philippines, recently announced that AcadArena Spaces, convertible student hubs built for students who engage with gaming, eSports or technology, is expected to rise at the National University Laguna campus within the month of April. AcadArena Spaces are fully-equipped facilities that offer high-end PCs and a student lounge for study, play, and events with a modular design that allows for customizable additions to fit the student community’s needs. With dedicated support for student clubs, AcadArena Spaces provide more than just a computer laboratory for academic institutions, they create vibrant programs for its students.
AcadArena understands that eSports and gaming are becoming a fundamental part of campus life and is committed to creating the best environment for educators and students alike. “We’ve always treated campuses as our partners in eSports, thus when developing Spaces we focus on balancing the specific needs of a campus with the wants of eSports athletes and student gamers. AcadArena’s strong focus on developing student communities combined with our extensive experience in the eSports industry makes us the perfect partner for campuses that are looking to start investing more in eSports and gaming,” said AcadArena Scholastic Partnerships Manager Atty. Isaiah San Miguel.
Spaces are highly adaptable and AcadArena is capable of transforming any existing classroom or computer laboratory into your dream eSports facility, all white working with your space and budget limitations. A student lounge, a competition hub, a broadcast studio, and a mini-eSports arena are all within the realm of possibility. A single classroom can be readily transformed into an eSports competition hub where student athletes can train, scrim, and compete in. NU Laguna opted for a mixed-use Space to maximize all the physical space at their disposal. The result was a classroom and learning center during the day that became a play area and mobile lounge after class hours. AcadArena understands that each campus has its unique needs and challenges which is why it is extremely flexible in developing Spaces that are tailored to the specific requirements of each campus.
“We’re proud to say that our approach has been well-received, and we’re already in talks with several other campuses who are interested in developing their unique AcadArena Space. We believe that the success of these Spaces is down to our ability to work closely with campus officials to understand the needs of their students and create Spaces that cater to those needs,” said AcadArena Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer Kevin Hoang.
