TEAM VITALITY ANNOUNCES STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP WITH TEAM HAVOK TO ACCELERATE ITS DEVELOPMENT IN FORTNITE

This weekend, Team Vitality announced a strategic partnership with Team Havok, a French Fortnite esports club, marking a new step in its development and diversification strategy.

As part of this collaboration, Team Havok will now compete under the identity Team Havok by Vitality, featuring a co-branded jersey integrating the Team Vitality logo.

This alliance aims to support the club in a new phase of growth, leveraging Team Vitality’s expertise in performance, organisational structure, and brand development. It will also enable Team Vitality to further expand its fanbase in France, particularly through co-streaming, content creation, and influencer-led initiatives.

A partnership built on performance and influence

A leading name in the Fortnite competitive scene, Team Havok has established itself with a strong track record, including winning the European Major 2 in 2025, finishing runner-up at the World Championship, and ranking as the second-best European team. Its player duo, Tjino and PabloWingu, have also qualified for this summer’s Esports World Cup. During this major international event, they will compete in black and yellow, the iconic colours of Team Vitality.

This partnership also aims to further grow Team Vitality’s French fanbase through co-streaming, content, and influencer activation. Led by prominent figures such as club co-founders and streamers ZetFar and WaZz, Team Havok has a strong ability to engage a young audience — particularly Gen Z and Gen Alpha (13–18 years old) — and foster a highly active community. This collaboration will strengthen Team Vitality’s presence in France while continuing to engage a global audience.

Accelerating the development of a sustainable ecosystem

This partnership is part of Team Vitality’s broader strategy, following previous structural collaborations with organisations such as PSG Esports and Bigetron Esports. It is aligned with the club’s three strategic pillars: competitive performance, global fanbase development, and the creation of a sustainable business model.

Beyond competition, the collaboration also opens new business opportunities, including Fortnite map development, exclusive merchandising, and influencer marketing activations.

More broadly, Team Vitality positions this partnership as an incubation model, with the ambition of supporting Team Havok through its next stage of growth. The objective is to structure and scale its operations sustainably over time.

“This partnership with Team Havok reflects our ambition to work with the best in order to continue growing Team Vitality. Their performance, creativity, and ability to engage the French community make them an ideal partner,” said Fabien “Neo” Devide, President and Co-founder of Team Vitality.

“We are incredibly proud to join Team Vitality. This collaboration with such a prestigious organisation marks a new milestone in the story we are building with our community,” said Grimz, caster at Team Havok.
