The Gamers Shall Inherit The Earth
Gaming; a US$150 billion (and growing) industry once unfairly criticised for making people socially distant or isolated, is now a way forward for society cohesion and networking in a COVID-19 infected real world.

Game Legal & Game Consulting Principal, Mat Jessep, spent some time last week talking to 'The Sydney Morning Herald' sports reporter Sarah Keoghan, where he discussed his thoughts on the opportunities in gaming for all sports organisations - something he's been talking about for years.
