“I’ve been so lucky to work in various roles, visiting different countries and customers to introduce Innovative Technology Limited (ITL) products into many Asian countries. I enjoy embracing new challenges and my next target is to bring the NV4000 multi-bill recycler and SMART Coin System (SCS) bulk coin validator, hopper and recycler to a high-level market position in East Asia over the next five years.”

Another member of ITL China also celebrates a significant milestone this month. Tony Wang, ITL Support Engineer has been working for ITL’s China branch for a decade and is a key member of the technical team.

Commenting on his impressive milestone, Tony, said: “The past ten years working for ITL have been very rewarding for me, seeing the company go from strength to strength. When I first joined ITL, I was responsible for all technical support and after-sales services in China. As the team grew this allowed me to focus more on the integration and development of new projects and provide high-level technical support for our expanding product range.

“I am very proud to work with an excellent team around the world serving our loyal customers. I enjoy seeing a project through from beginning to end, which has developed my skill-set and personal abilities. Helping customers in various fields including self-service, retail, vending and entertainment, integrate our products to progress their business and improve performance is very fulfilling. We are continually upgrading and developing the ITL product range to meet the needs of our customers and I look forward to being a part of this successful organisation for many years to come.”

Commenting on China’s double celebrations, Marcus Tiedt, Sales and Marketing Director for ITL, said: “Both Sean and Tony are valued members of the team, who have progressed and taken on more responsibility during their time at ITL. They have excellent technical knowledge, give first-class service to customers and partners and are highly valued by all our international sales and support teams. Congratulations to them both on these impressive milestones.”

This marks S8UL’s first foray into the real-time strategy (RTS) genre and signals its continued commitment to global expansion across esports titles that have defined competitive gaming history.

A fan-favorite and master tactician, GuMiho is recognised across the global StarCraft community for his creative playstyle, unorthodox strategies, and trailblazing use of mech-based unit compositions.

Championship in 2017, defeating soO in a 4–2 final that etched his name in StarCraft history. His unique style of playing with a towel draped over his hands to absorb sweat and maintain precision earned him the moniker “The Towel Terran,” while his dominance with mechanical Terran builds gave rise to another title: “The Mech God.”

GuMiho’s recent achievements reaffirm his elite status in the competitive StarCraft II scene. In December 2024, he edged out Protoss standout Clem in a tense 3–2 series at HomeStory Cup XXVI, building on the momentum of his nail-biting 4–3 grand final victory over ShoWTimE (also Protoss) at HomeStory Cup XXV just months earlier. Earlier in the year, he delivered a commanding run to the finals of WardiTV 2023, ultimately finishing second after a hard-fought series against Zerg titan Dark. These standout results reinforce GuMiho’s reputation as one of the scene’s most resilient and inventive players, proving that even after years at the top, he continues to evolve and compete at the highest level.

Speaking about his new journey with S8UL, GuMiho said: “Joining S8UL feels like stepping onto a new playing field with the same hunger to win. Their drive to break barriers in esports matches my own competitive spirit. I’m ready to give it my all and compete at the highest level again, this time with S8UL by my side.”

Animesh Agarwal a.k.a. 8Bit Thug, Co-founder and CEO of S8UL, commented on the signing: “GuMiho is a living legend, and we’re beyond thrilled to welcome him to the S8UL family. Our journey into StarCraft II is about paying homage to the roots of esports and competing with the best. GuMiho’s legacy of innovation, consistency, and competitive spirit embodies everything S8UL stands for. This is a proud moment for Indian esports as we strengthen our EWC aspirations with one of the game’s all-time greats.”

As S8UL prepares to compete across multiple titles at EWC 2025, including Apex Legends, EAFC 25, Call of Duty: Warzone, Tekken 8, Chess, and now StarCraft II, the organization continues to demonstrate that excellence in esports knows no borders, no genres, and no limits.
