Canadian esports organisation Gaimin Gladiators, also known as GG, has announced a new partnership with gaming monitor brand AGON by AOC.

The news was shared by Gaimin Gladiators Co-founder and President Nick Cuccovillo in a statement on LinkedIn. In his post, Cuccovillo said that at the highest level of esports, success is not just about talent, anchoring the partnership around the idea that having the right equipment is just as important to help players perform at their best every day.

Cuccovillo also explained that over the past few weeks at GG headquarters, the organisation’s professional Counter-Strike 2 (CS2) players have been testing the AGON monitors. The players have been using the monitors daily and have given very positive feedback.

He said they believe these are some of the best competitive monitors they have used. Cuccovillo added that having this kind of advanced equipment at GG HQ helps players prepare better for tournaments and perform at a high level both in practice and on stage.

Global Esports Industry Week (GEIW) will return in 2026 with a bigger and bolder edition, taking place across 18–21 June in Cologne, Germany, alongside IEM Cologne. The schedule and details about ticket sales are available in this link.

“These are some of the most advanced competitive FPS monitors out there, and having this kind of equipment across the organisation helps our players prep and perform from practice to stage,” said Nick Cuccovillo. “We’re building with intention: strong partners, strong talent, and a clear path forward. Big thanks to AGON by AOC for the support and for believing in our vision. We’re excited to grow together.”

The latest Gaimin Gladiators deal also fits into a bigger trend for monitor brands as they pursue wider exposure in esports. UK organisation Method teamed up with AGON by AOC in October 2025, outfitting its MMORPG focused rosters, including its World of Warcraft players, with AGON displays. BenQ‘s brand ZOWIE was not left behind, and closed high-profile partnerships including with the StarLadder Major Budapest 2025 and teams competing in VALORANT in a strategy primarily aimed at competitive first-person shooter (FPS) titles.

At the same time, Gaimin Gladiators has been stepping up its own infrastructure, having opened a new $1 million boot camp and training facility last year in Lisbon to give its players a dedicated space for top-level practice and content creation.
