Launched in 2017 by esports faculty and students at Emerson College as a forum to address the need for dialogue on topics related to the growth of esports, the College Esports Expo hosts scheduled panels and keynotes that go through the inner workings of the esports industry. We host key stakeholders from the companies that are driving the backbone of the industry.

CEX 2020 is a one-day event (Wednesday, February 26), which is the day before over 60,000 gamers and gaming companies converge in Boston for the annual Pax East Conference. Since CEX's inception, we've grown and expanded from a one-room lecture hall at Emerson College to five dedicated conference spaces in the historic Park Plaza Hotel in Boston.

Come to the College Esports Expo (CEX), the premier event for students, administration colleges, and esports industry professionals to begin a dialogue.
