Galaxy Racer (GXR), founded in 2019 by Paul Roy and headquartered in Dubai, is the world’s largest esports, gaming, and lifestyle organization, with over 100 content creators across Southeast Asia, the Middle East, North Africa, South Asia, and Europe, and over 500 million followers and 2.5 billion monthly views, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) at Expo 2020 Dubai, witnessed by Tan Sri Annuar Musa, Malaysia’s Minister of Communications and Multimedia (MDEC).

The planned headquarters in Malaysia will focus on six business verticals, according to Galaxy Racer, including content, esports teams, content creators, esports and gaming events, merchandising, a music label, and an animation studio. Malaysians will be able to work in the esports business as a result of the new venture.

The digital economy is becoming one of the most important contributors to Malaysia’s GDP, accounting for 22.6 percent of the country’s GDP. By 2025, it is estimated to contribute up to 25.5 percent. Galaxy Racer intends to act as a catalyst by creating high-skilled jobs and providing Malaysians with the opportunity to work for an international esports, gaming, and lifestyle company that will generate additional revenue for the country through its intellectual property in the digital content industry.
