North American organization Sentinels has partnered with StartEngine, an equity crowdfunding platform, to allow investors to potentially purchase equity. The organization currently boasts teams in various esports including Apex Legends, Halo, and of course VALORANT. Additionally, Sentinels employs various content creators, including the famed former Counter-Strike pro Tarik "tarik" Celik.

Sentinels is one of the most popular esports organizations based in the US, attaining the highest Twitter engagement in 2022 in comparison to other esports orgs based in North America.

Fans to receive the opportunity to invest into Sentinels

With an entry point of $300 US dollars, fans will be able to reserve their shares to then potentially invest into the famed North American organization. A range of additional benefits await for bigger investments upwards of $500 and those include merch, bonus shares, equity, direct access to Sentinels management, or even the chance to meet players that are part of the Sentinels organization. The move aims to give fans of the org have a voice in the organization's direction.

“Our passionate fans have been a key to Sentinels growth and we are looking forward to inviting the fans to be a bigger part of our journey,” said Rob Moore, CEO of Sentinels.

It is worth stressing that potential investors will first reserve shares due to the nature of the test-the-waters phase on StartEngine.

Sentinels looking to bounce back in VALORANT

Despite being one of the most recognizable esports teams in VALORANT, the team has been somewhat lackluster this season. Featuring the likes of Tyson "TenZ" Ngo or Gustavo "Sacy" Rossi, Sentinels was expected by many to land themselves higher at VCT Americas League.

Sentinels is now poised to make a deep run at the Americas Last Chance Qualifier with their first matchup on July 17 against 100 Thieves.

You can peruse the terms of offering on the official investors Sentinels website.
