Gaming for a Cause

We partner with the American Cancer Society (ACS) to host the Gamers vs Cancer video game tournament series – an ongoing effort to raise money and awareness in the fight against cancer. Since 2020, we have successfully organized and hosted over ten tournaments, raising an impressive $17,000 in total. Our commitment to this cause extends beyond just the financial contributions. We have been proud partners of the ACS and its mission to eradicate cancer since 2009, a decision made to honor and support the many members of the Apex family who have been impacted by this disease.

CLIENT REVIEWS

Apex has been a key partner for our team by providing quality talent with low friction. Everything from the formatting of emails to the ease of setting up interviews to the building of statements of work and getting purchase orders built and executed has been easy and seamless. Out of all the partners we’ve engaged with Apex has been the easiest and fastest to work with.

DEREK SUNSHINE

Apex’s access to quality artists on a national level has been key in the quick growth and art strategy for our gaming property. Additionally, their experience with the gaming industry and blockchain at a broad level has allowed us to save time by accessing a broad set of convertible talent from a convenient source.

SEBASTIAN STRZALKOWSKI

I’ve been impressed with the quality of talent Apex provides (our hit rate of hire vs interview is higher than with other agencies), the level of responsiveness from our account managers is great, and they have developed an understanding of our business such that we are including them in our long-term planning.
