Oleksandr Kokhanovsky, the co-founder of the Ukrainian multi-gaming esports organisation Natus Vincere (NaVi), has announced that the Dnipro hotel in Kiev, Ukraine, will be transformed into an esports venue. According to Kokhanovsky, a group of partners and investors will work on the project.

The hotel will continue to offer classic services such as restaurants, bars, spa areas, and fitness centers. But it will also feature everything a professional esports gamer needs: training areas, rooms for players and esports stage to hold competitions.

“This is a whole ecosystem, which includes the creation of a modern multifunctional esports arena with all-Ukrainian and international tournaments, an esports academy, educational projects and an esports association uniting key market players who will develop the industry and help improve the legislative framework,” Kokhanovsky said.
