Gina Chung

Global Brand Leadership

A global marketing executive whose career has been defined by building influential brands, leading high-impact partnerships, and driving transformative business growth.

Gina served as Head of Global & Digital Brand Marketing at Forever 21 during one of the company’s most significant periods of international expansion. As part of the brand’s leadership team, she helped shape its global marketing strategy while overseeing digital marketing, communications, music partnerships, brand collaborations, and integrated campaigns, during an era in which Forever 21 operated nearly 800 stores worldwide and recorded more than $4 billion in annual sales.

Recognizing the long-term commercial potential of esports before widespread brand adoption, Gina joined Gen.G Esports in 2019 as Vice President of Brand, Activation & Apparel and was promoted to Chief Marketing Officer in 2021. She led global brand strategy, marketing, creative campaigns, and commercial partnerships, helping strengthen Gen.G’s position at the intersection of gaming, fashion, entertainment, and education. During her tenure, Forbes ranked Gen.G eighth among the world’s most valuable esports companies in 2022, with an estimated value of $250 million.

Across each role, her focus has been the decisions that determine long-term enterprise value: which markets to enter, which partnerships to build, and where commercial leadership is established before a category matures.
