|content=[[Companies/ESE Entertainment|ESE Entertainment]] Inc. has acquired Bombee Global Entertainment Ltd., the North American arm of Bombee Event Production AB, a global company specializing in live production, special effects, broadcast, and event management for the gaming sector.

The acquisition follows a partnership formed in April 2024 between ESE and Bombee. This move expands ESE’s focus beyond gaming to include live events such as traditional sports, concerts, and broader entertainment.

Bombee has a strong client roster, including Microsoft, AMD, Electronic Arts, RedBull, DreamHack, and Ubisoft, and has produced major live events globally. For example, the 2024 Esports World Cup featured a prize pool of over $60 million, the largest in esports history.
