Background of this Sponsorship Agreement
EMBERZ, under the mission of "creating a world where people can live through card games," is working to enhance the value of card game culture through challenges in competitive scenes and information dissemination.
Meanwhile, GEKIRIN Inc. has been continuously striving to make card games more accessible by providing valuable products and experiences to players through the operation of card shops, tournament management, and the development of its own supply brand "Gekirin SHIELD."
The shared desire of both parties to deliver the appeal of card games to more people led to the conclusion of this sponsorship agreement.

We will promote brand recognition expansion through the following activities:
・Placement of corporate logos on player uniforms, official website, and social media
・Promotional activities through collaborative products with players for "Gekirin SHIELD" and guest visits
・Appeal of external sponsorship by acquiring the right to use the EMBERZ logo
We will also strive to expand brand recognition and contribute to the overall development of the industry through various other initiatives.
