FURIA announces new office and training centre in Brazil

Brazilian eSports organisation FURIA has announced a new 1200m² office and centre in São Paulo. The new facility will have different training and meeting rooms, special areas focused on performance and can accommodate the organisation’s performance teams, staff and operational areas.

Located in the Shopping Market Place, Vila Cordeiro, São Paulo, the aforementioned performance rooms will include five training rooms, four meeting rooms, one physiotherapy room and one psychology room. The facility has a total capacity of 150 people.

As well as spaces for the teams competing under the FURIA banner, the offices will be equipped for other staff working for the organisation. This includes two kitchens, about 45 workstations and a breakroom.

FURIA is one of the premier esports organisations in Brazil and has a variety of teams across different esports titles. Founded in 2017, FURIA was most well-known for its time in Counter-Strike, which includes winning ESL Pro League Season 12: North America in 2020.

However, in the seven years since, FURIA has expanded across to other games. The organisation currently boasts teams in CS2, Apex Legends, League of Legends, PUBG Mobile, Street Fighter, Rainbow Six Siege, Rocket League and VALORANT.

The Brazilian organisation has been busy recently expanding its merchandise, partnering with Champion to launch an apparel collection and creating a My Hero Academia merch line with Crunchyroll.

FURIA’s Head of People and Workplace, Evelyn Cardoso, commented on the new facility stating: “This new space symbolizes the growth and modernisation that are happening at FURIA, particularly in the areas of performance and business.

With the addition of new game genres and the hiring of new talent, our new home has been designed to meet all the needs of the players and staff.”
