HPU

One of the most integral parts of the future of our esports teams is the High-Performance Unit (or HPU). Bringing together experts across Fitness, Performance, Wellbeing, and partnering with industry leaders. The HPU will level you up by providing best-in-class performance infrastructure that is built on the belief that performance is a journey - where every detail, big or small, matters.

"Our goal is to help create players who can perform at the top of their ability, not just for a short period of time, but consistently for the remainder of their careers at Fnatic."

Jens Hofer, Former Head of HPU
