During the WCG Closing Ceremony, Samsung was presented with the first Corporate Climate Leadership Award by Carbonfund.org in recognition of their environmental programs.
Today, the Los Angeles County Education Foundation will take delivery of more than $120,000 worth of Samsung SyncMaster monitors, a donation from the World Cyber Games, to enhance classrooms and after-school programs, and encourage the use and development of technology in education throughout the state.
The WCG 2010 Grand Final also included the live taping of WCG's Ultimate Gamer Season 2 finale which will air at 11:00PM this Thursday, October 7.
