How eSports became a big business for Razer
Singapore (CNN Business)When Min-Liang Tan started a business 13 years ago to make gear for playing video games, he faced a lot of doubters.
“I heard all these people saying, ‘Gaming? Isn’t that child’s play?'” he said. “No one wanted to get into gaming.”
