Role: Founder & administrator
*The Gaming Hub is no longer as tightly managed as in its early years. Now the groups are autonomous.
Description
Since 2014, Hub du Gaming has been providing French-speaking gamers in North America with the means to interact with each other easily and efficiently, while keeping them informed about what’s happening in Quebec on the gaming and esports scene.
History
The Hub du Gaming community was created in 2014 by Boreal Gaming, predecessor of Boreal eSports, to address several communications issues in the Quebec scene. Firstly, there was no centralized platform for activities taking place in French, so it was difficult for a neophyte to find information on what was going on. Secondly, the Quebec Facebook groups were extremely disparate. On the one hand, there were those that were managed in an unparalleled way by quality administrators, while on the other, which was unfortunately the most frequent, groups were left to their own devices, their administrators abused their powers or they were only big because they had been the first to be created and not for the quality of it.
Over the years, the network has had over 65,000 (unique) active members in all its groups.
