From Grind to Pro

Mr. Rudy Hermanto, Marketing Manager, AIMS International, said:
“We believe in MLBB and MPL as a healthy competitive esports ecosystem that brings people together. Whether you are improving individually or competing as a team, becoming better requires discipline, patience, learning and strong fundamentals.”
“Those values resonate strongly with us at AIMS. Through this partnership, we want to provide an educational platform where the community can have fun, compete and connect, while also learning about responsible trading, discipline and financial market fundamentals.”
“We have also seen the commitment that many established brands and partners have shown towards MPL Indonesia over the years. That gave us further confidence that this is an ecosystem worth being part of and contributing to.”
Bringing Grind to Pro to the MPL Community
Throughout MPL Indonesia Season 18, AIMS will introduce its Grind to Pro platform through selected community, digital and offline initiatives.
The programme will connect community participation, educational content, social activations and creator engagement with the shared values of discipline, teamwork and continuous improvement.
