SPORTFIVE SECURES EXCLUSIVE SALES REPRESENTATION AGREEMENT WITH paiN GAMING
Global Sports Marketing Agency SPORTFIVE and Brazilian esports organization paiN Gaming have reached an exclusive sales representation agreement to span across all sponsorship categories and portfolio of esports and gaming assets.
The agreement is an expansion of the companies’ partnership off the back of SPORTFIVE brokering paiN Gaming’s sponsorship deal with betting brand DuelBits in August this year.
The aim of this new relationship is for SPORTFIVE to help paiN Gaming secure global brand partnerships and identifying the power of the Brazilian gaming and esports market, which is inside the top five in the sector globally.
Game developers and esports event organizers have increased their focus in Brazil with several major esports events coming to the region over the next six months, including IEM Rio Major 2022 and VALORANT Champions Tour 2023: Kickoff Tournament. Riot Games has also included three Brazilian teams in the Americas division of the upcoming VALORANT Champions Tour.
Ryan Polun, Head of Esports & Gaming, Americas at SPORTFIVE said: “Our agency has been taking a deep look at the power of gaming in Latin America and there is no question paiN Gaming is at the forefront of the passion in the market.
“We are humbled to be working closely with paiN and Thomas to capitalize on the excitement around gaming in Brazil and help the organization secure more global partners.”
paiN Gaming CEO Thomas Hamence said: “We are delighted to be able to expand our partnership with SPORTFIVE in such an exciting moment for gaming and esports.
“We are absolutely certain that this partnership will prove to be huge not only for paiN, but for the Brazilian ecosystem as a whole.“
paiN Gaming is one of the top gaming organizations in the region with over 12 million followers and a championship pedigree across the CBLoL & CS:GO esports titles and legacy gaming stars.
SPORTFIVE will help paiN Gaming shape their partnership offering around major team assets including its new home facility in Sao Paulo, women’s League of Legends team and other tentpole moments. paiN also owns gaming content creator agency TFTW which includes top Brazilian influencers.
Earlier this year SPORTFIVE secured the front of shirt sponsorship for paiN in the form of crypto betting firm Duelbits. The brand has featured on paiN’s CS:GO jersey, including its academy team, and on Free Fire emulation team jerseys.
This is not the first flagship partnership SPORTFIVE has secured in the region this year, having agreed to a partnership with Brazilian football powerhouse Flamengo to grow the market presence of the club internationally.
In esports, SPORTFIVE is currently partnered with Gen.G, Fnatic, New York Excelsior, Misfits Gaming and Immortals, as well as the League of Legends European Championship (LEC) – showcasing that it is the destination for sponsorship agreements in the space.

Brazil federal court suspends Spribe’s Aviator trademark rights pending final ruling
18th Federal Civil Court of the Federal District blocks enforcement of Brazilian registration No. 501759803 after action by Aviator Studio Brazil.
A Federal Court in Brazil has ordered the suspension of Spribe’s trademark registration for “Aviator,” preventing the company from relying on exclusivity rights tied to Brazilian trademark registration No. 501759803 until a final judgment is issued.
The decision was issued by the 18th Federal Civil Court of the Federal District, following legal action brought by Aviator Studio Brazil. Aviator Studio said the court recognized the strength of its claims on the grounds of invalidation of Spribe’s trademarks.
According to Aviator Studio, the case centers on evidence that the Aviator trademark was created and used years before Spribe obtained trademark protection in Brazil. The company said the court acknowledged evidence that the Aviator brand originated in Georgia in 2016 and was formally registered there in 2018.
The court also took note of prior judicial decisions in Georgia that, according to Aviator Studio, invalidated Spribe’s registration of the Aviator trademark and confirmed the rights of the original trademark owner.
“This decision represents an important step in protecting the Aviator brand and enforcing intellectual property rights internationally. In practical terms, this means that, until the final resolution of the Spribe’s trademark invalidation proceedings, Spribe will no longer be able to continue it’s disruptive practices against operators, including sending threatening letters or initiating legal actions related to the use of Aviator Studio’s trademark.” comments George Pruidze, CEO of Aviator Studio. “We remain committed to defending the integrity of the Aviator brand and ensuring that its legitimate ownership is recognized across all jurisdictions.”
