Saudi Arabia’s unique approach to gaming and esports | HRH Prince Faisal interview

I can’t recall interviewing royalty before, except a British Knight, Ian Livingstone. But I had to make sure that I said “your royal highness” respectfully ahead of my questions for Prince Faisal bin Bandar bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz Al Saud in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

He was one of the speakers at the Next Generation Sports Conference and he is heavily involved in the country’s games and esports initiatives — Saudi Arabia has pledged to invest $37 billion in games through its Public Investment Fund.
