The organisation cited in a release that the new hires reflect Team Liquid’s commitment toward ‘wider content and fandom goals’. Team Liquid also emphasised Liquid Media, the company’s B2B agency, as a very important pillar of the company’s growth.

“I’m fully confident that Josie, Blair, and Jennifer are the right people to help Team Liquid excel in this next growth phase.”
