In the clip, the company&#8217;s founder and CEO, Jack Etienne, introduces the new member of the team.<\/p>\n<p>Cloud9 is one of the most well-known esports brands in the entire globe. The company runs competitive teams in a wide range of titles, including <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/valorant\/\" title=\"Valorant betting\">Valorant<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/counter-strike\/\" title=\"CS:GO betting\">Counter-Strike: Global Offensive<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/overwatch\/\" title=\"Overwatch betting\">Overwatch<\/a> (London Spitfire), and <a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/league-of-legends\/\" title=\"LoL betting\">League of Legends<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Sugita will be reporting directly to Etienne from the headquarters of Cloud9, which are located in Santa Monica, California. She will, according to the organization, oversee the worldwide marketing operations of the organization across all sectors, such as promotions and product launches from partners.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There\u2019s something about Cloud9 that is incredibly exciting, and Jack is someone who I\u2019ve known and respected for a while now,&#8221; Sugita said to Sports Business Journal. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019ve worked in esports for a long time, but I think this may be the first time that I\u2019ve felt truly unlimited in my potential. I\u2019ve always had this mission to spread happiness and joy to people wherever I go, and I\u2019m thrilled to be able to deliver that to our fans on a global scale here.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Sugita will be striving to improve the Cloud9 brand while also advancing the company&#8217;s objective of winning championships, growing its audience, and offering players and employees aid, coaching, and perks that are the best in their business.<\/p>\n<p>Sugita said in the announcement video: &#8220;I will be working on brand, on company vision, and will share with you guys our \u2018why\u2019. Our \u2018why\u2019 is the most important: Why we got into esports, why we have this brand, why is it that we do the things we do, the titles that we bring, and also the initiatives that we launch.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In addition to this, Sugita is well-known for his ardent commitment to environmental protection. She is the founder of a number of projects, some of which include the planting of trees and the rescue of marine life and other animals through initiatives such as SeaQuest and BeeQuest. Ikebana, which is the Japanese art of flower arranging, is something that Sugita teaches as well.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019ve worked in esports for a long time, but I think this may be the 1st time that I\u2019ve felt truly unlimited in my potential. I\u2019ve always had this mission to spread happiness and joy to people wherever I go, and I\u2019m thrilled to be able to deliver that to our fans,&#8221; Sugita said on Twitter.<\/p>\n<p>On social media, Cloud9&#8217;s devoted followers reacted positively to the news. <\/p>\n<p>According to Etienne: &#8220;I\u2019m very excited that Tricia is joining us because she truly understands the Cloud9 brand. And while I\u2019m focusing on putting together the next big team, she will make sure Cloud9 is looking good.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/news\/\"
