Galaxy Racer (GXR), headquartered in Dubai, is set to expand its company to North American, looking for the top talent within women’s esports.
Being the largest esports, gaming, and lifestyle organization, Galaxy Racer has set out to make a difference in the world of esports. Their new brand, 'HER Galaxy', will set its course for North America, focusing solely on women's esports.
Galaxy Racer's vision: Help build a foundation to represent women in esports
Founded in 2019, Galaxy Racer has continued to set precedents when it comes to the gaming world. Their roster consists of some of the world's biggest content creators, including creators such as 'YourFellowArab' and 'MamaBenjyFishy'.
The organization has slated itself as one of the largest gaming organizations across the Middle East, North Africa, Southeast Asia, South Asia, and Europe. Moving forward, their new headquarters will be located in Los Angeles, California.
HER Galaxy has a primary focus to help build a foundation that represents women in the esports world. In 2021, it was reported that 48% of gamers were female, but less than 1% of female gamers were pro. HER Galaxy aims to change that.
“I am thrilled to join the Galaxy Racer team as we expand into North America. The ongoing focus on building a foundation for emerging women esports talent with HER Galaxy is deeply important to me and the greater gaming community" said Akemi Sue Fisher, CEO of Galaxy Racer North America.
"Through HER Galaxy, we hope to empower the incredible women talent within the US and look forward to meeting all the hopeful teams in the near future!”

To ensure the success of this initiative, HER Galaxy will focus on four esports teams across multiple platforms. This will include multi-platform tournament series that will offer unparalleled opportunities and growth of women's esports teams.
