Allan Phang, CMO of Galaxy Racer added, “After interacting with Paul Roy, I realized the enormous potential and plans that Galaxy Racer has in store across the globe and I am truly excited to take on this new challenge as part of my career trajectory. The esports and gaming world is a sunrise industry and I believe Galaxy Racer is on the right path to be a market leader in this space with their integrated 360 approach focusing on content and lifestyle, as brands and marketers begin to understand the true value of esports and gaming in connecting with the hard-to-reach demographics of Millennials, Gen Z Digital Natives and Gen Alphas.”

Phang was ‘Marketing Innovator of the Year – Finalist’ in the Marketing Excellence Awards 2020 and is a regular contributor on thought leadership pieces in various leading international marketing publications.
