Therefore based on our research, expertise ,insights and under the leadership of  Mr.Mazhar Nadiadwala, MD, we decided to create ECHOSLAM – A Mega Esports Festival, which is purely experience and memories led, fun, disruptive, affordable, secure, safe, convenient  and engages all stakeholders Happily and Seamlessly. Associating with a partner like Nodwin Gaming for our first experience under the IP vertical enables us to bring together our combined expertise and best practices to create a festival that aims to deliver a memorable experience for all. We hope that this is the first of many such experiences we collaborate with Nodwin Gaming for, and hope to strengthen our association further.’’
