Natus Vincere Partners with PUMA
Ukrainian esports organisation Natus Vincere (NAVI) has entered into a partnership deal with global sportswear brand PUMA.
The three-year partnership will see PUMA become the organisation’s technical partner. As a technical partner, PUMA will assist in the design of a brand-new jersey for NAVI and its fans. The jersey will go on sale through the organisation’s website as well as PUMA’s website alongside its existing range of sportswear.
Oleksandr ‘nervo-‘ Pavlenko, Chief Marketing Officer at Natus Vincere, said: “In esports, it’s hard to find someone who has never heard of NAVI. Likewise in sports, PUMA is one of the most valuable and recognisable brands. Long history and bold decisions that were ahead of their time and led to advancements in our respective disciplines connect us.
“PUMA’s mission is to be the fastest sports brand in the world. Unsurprisingly, our plans coincide. There is no other way to keep up with the rapidly developing esports world than to be the fastest.”
Vladimir Gorobets, CEO at PUMA Russia and Ukraine, said: “Throughout our history, PUMA has been creating outfits for the best teams and athletes in the world. We are glad to become a technical partner of NAVI and thus secure our position in esports. We believe in the team’s potential and wish success and victories to the players and their fans.”

Compliance Updates
Ukrainian Gambling Regulator Rolls Out Digital Complaints Platform
The Ukrainian gambling regulator, PlayCity, has rolled out a new digital complaints platform that’s intended to streamline how the public can report illegal gambling advertisements. The complaints form is now live in the “For Citizens” section of PlayCity’s website, giving Ukrainian citizens a direct channel to help monitor and curb illegal gambling advertising.
The system enables citizens to flag suspected violations across multiple formats, including social media, websites, television, radio, outdoor billboards and other public spaces. Users submitting a complaint must identify the platform type, provide a direct link to the advertisement and attach supporting evidence such as screenshots or video clips.
The system is designed to automatically archive submissions and capture ephemeral content like social media “stories” so regulators can review material even after it disappears. PlayCity staff will screen each complaint to assess whether the content breaches Ukraine’s advertising rules.
If violations are confirmed, the regulator can request removal of content from platforms such as Meta, Google, TikTok, YouTube, Viber and Twitch. PlayCity said it could also seek to block social media accounts that repeatedly share unlawful gambling promotions, fine responsible parties or escalate cases to law enforcement when identities cannot be verified.
The statutory fine for illegal gambling advertising stands at cca. €100,900.
The new enforcement framework stems from Law No.9526d, the same legislation that abolished the previous gambling regulator KRAIL.
