Daniel Shen who is CEO of Sector 7 Energy and Alumni of Texas University sponsors the Esports program.

The Esports Program at UT Dallas now has a new name, thanks to the generous donation from alumni and Sector 7 Energy CEO Daniel Shen.

Shen recently donated $100,000 to the University of Texas at Dallas facility, where the esports team trains and plays. It is now known as the Sector 7 Energy Esports Gaming Arena. For those who do not know, esports is competitive video gaming. This past fall, the University of Texas at Dallas became one of the first universities to offer esports as part of their athletics department.

During the dedications ceremony for the esports room on May 9th, the vice president of Student Affairs, Gene Fitch, talked about why esports is such an excellent fit for the UT Dallas athletics program. “To say that this was the perfect match is probably an understatement,” he went on to say that. “Video gaming and UTD go together like peanut butter and jelly, or hot sauce and chicken wings. It was just a matter of time before the vision was realized, and now, here we are. This phenomenon known as esports has found its home at UTD.”

Daniel Shen grew up playing video games like Counter-Strike and StarCraft. As an avid gamer himself, Daniel hopes that this first donation to UT Dallas will help with the program’s overall success. He even played World of Warcraft competitively for several years. Shen believes that esports is a growing industry that was unrecognized a decade ago when he attended the university. Shen earned a degree in psychology from the School of Behavioral and Brain Sciences at UT Dallas.

Shen is the CEO and founder of Sector 7 Energy. The full-service energy consulting firm provides services including retail energy brokering, lighting consultation, and energy efficiency analysis for their residential and commercial clients. The company offers its top-notch services to the residents and businesses located in Texas, New York, New Hampshire, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, and New Jersey.

Daniel feels this is an excellent opportunity to be involved in the early stages of something remarkable. Gaming was always a big part of his life. Growing up, video games were always a hobby for him and his family. At times, it was a job for him to play games. That’s why he wanted to find a way to get involved in introducing esports at UT.
