https://thenextweb.com/gaming/2019/09/18/venn-gaming-network-creators/ > A cohort of gaming veterans are creating a dedicated gaming and esports network that puts the focus on professional streaming celebrities — a channel called VENN. > VENN, which stands for Video game Entertainment & News Network (pity we couldn’t work the G in there, because we were so close to having a network called “VEGEN”), would be an MTV of sorts for esports and gaming-based personalities. The co-CEOs of the network include Ben Kusin, formerly director of new media at Vivendi Games, and Ariel Horn, the esports producer at Riot Games and Blizzard Entertainment.
