Founded in 2010, the company organizes national and regional professional leagues across Spain and Latin America, produces live broadcasts of world esports events in Spanish, and operates ArenaGG, an online competition platform active in 30+ countries.

LVP serves three primary customer segments: game publishers (Riot Games, Garena, Electronic Arts) requiring official sanctioned competition infrastructure and Spanish-language broadcasting; brand sponsors (MediaMarkt, Intel, Domino's Pizza, Santander, Burger King, Corsair) seeking access to the Hispanic esports audience; and professional and amateur esports teams participating in its leagues. The company operates through an event-driven and enterprise field sales go-to-market model, with five offices in Barcelona, Madrid, Buenos Aires, Bogotá, and Mexico City.
Revenue is generated across three streams: B2B event production services for publishers and brands, sponsorship and advertising packages, and Spanish-language broadcasting and media rights distribution. The company operates with 101-250 employees and functions as a privately held corporate subsidiary within the GRUP MEDIAPRO conglomerate. No public pricing, funding rounds, or revenue disclosures are available, and no AI/ML capabilities are documented in the source material.
