Justin Kenna, CEO of GameSquare stated, "Today's announcement is a win-win for GameSquare, FaZe Media, and the greater FaZe Clan community. Since completing the acquisition of FaZe Clan in March 2024 our strategy has been focused on reigniting the FaZe brand by returning its founders in a meaningful way. With the support of Matt Kalish and his direct investment in FaZe Media, we structured the new business as a creator-led IP and media company. Today's announcement solidifies this approach by providing access to a significant stake in the business and aligning FaZe's founders in the success of the brand."
