OUR MODEL
HOW IT WORKS
Knockout India is a gaming and esports organization focused on empowering school and college students by helping institutions establish official gaming clubs through its licensed franchise model. We provide end-to-end support for community building, operations, and event management. Alongside this, we manage content creators, organize esports tournaments and gaming events, and create opportunities that connect talent, education, and the gaming industry under one ecosystem.
Knockout India operates on a structured model designed to expand the esports ecosystem across schools and colleges. The organization provides an official license to students and institutions, allowing them to establish and operate gaming clubs or societies under the Knockout India brand name. With this license, teams receive complete support in setting up, managing, and growing their societies—from organizing events to building a strong campus community. Knockout India has already expanded through its branch, Knockout MAIMS, showcasing how this model successfully creates independent yet connected units across campuses. By empowering students with brand access, guidance, and operational support, Knockout India ensures consistent growth while maintaining a unified identity nationwide.
