Welsh Government recognises the potential of the E Sports sector. In 2022, Creative Wales funded E-sports Wales with £25,000 to help them establish a Welsh league, secure coaching and training for staff and teams, enable the hosting of new in-person and awareness-raising events, and support membership growth and marketing. This was in readiness for their attendance at the Commonwealth Games championships. Creative Wales will consider further requests for funding on a case by case basis. All e-sports businesses are able to access the range of general start up and growth schemes from Business Wales, and may be able to access funding from the Development Bank for Wales where eligible.
