Le gaming béninois féminin connaît une croissance remarquable grâce à des figures emblématiques comme Nahomie Durand, une véritable Amazone du domaine. Sa passion et son engagement ont permis non seulement de briser les stéréotypes liés aux femmes dans l’univers du gaming, mais aussi de mettre en lumière le talent féminin béninois sur les scènes nationale et internationale. Nahomie Durand incarne une nouvelle génération de joueuses qui inspirent et motivent les jeunes filles à s’impliquer dans cet univers autrefois dominé par les hommes. Par ses performances, elle a attiré l’attention sur la scène béninoise et renforcé la présence du Bénin dans les compétitions internationales. Son influence ne s’arrête pas là : en tant qu’ambassadrice du gaming féminin, elle milite pour une plus grande inclusion des femmes dans l’e-sport, tout en encourageant la création de plateformes dédiées aux joueuses. Sa place de vice championne d’Afrique centrale lors du KONGO ESPORT CHAMPIONSHIPS vient confirmer des années de dur labeur et de sacrifice. 🔥Afrigamers nous apportons le challenge🔥 https://lnkd.in/ebDmpeKf #esport #esports #esporte #esportes #esportlogo #esportsteam #benin #bénin #benincity #afrigamers #afrigamersbeninesportleague #afrigamersbeninesportleague2024 #beninesport #beninesportleague2024 #beninesportleague #numerique #game #gaming #jeu #jeuvideo #jeunesse Désiré Koussawo France Esports FFJV - Fédération Française de Jeu Vidéo Fédération Royale Marocaine des Jeux Électroniques International Esports Federation Gamers Assembly Digital Valley Digital Africa Dushko Stojanovski Esports Kenya Federation Esports World Cup Foundation Mina Ramos ADAC Bénin Mantchini TRAORÉ République du Bénin Ministère des Sports - République du Bénin (MSp/BENIN) Ministère du Numérique et de la Digitalisation du Bénin GDIZ - Glo-Djigbé Industrial Zone Gamr (Techstars '23) Ubisoft othman AlDakheel MTN BENIN Celtiis Bénin ISOCEL - Ici C'est La Fibre ISOCEL E.Leclerc CANAL+ Group AFRICAGLOBAL SECURITY Microland Technical Services Inc Kwesi Hayford Baba Dioum Mohamed Rezki 1xbet Sandra Kececi Sandra Vihenda Sandra Bloy Alice Panza Netta Jenkins CEO, Aerodei CIC AFRICA GAMES WEEK Gaming Campus
