Kaizen Gaming, one of the biggest GameTech companies in the world, had an impressive double-win at the SBC Awards LatinoamĂ©rica 2024 on the 31st October in Miami, Florida. Awarded âBrazilian Market Entrant of the Yearâ, and âMarketing Campaign of the Yearâ, the two wins follow an impressive year of growth and exposure for Kaizen Gaming, as well as its premium brand Betano, across Latin America and globally.
Betano is rapidly growing its user base and presence in Brazil, serving as the main and title sponsor of BrasileirĂŁo Betano and Copa Betano do Brasil. As a founding member of the ANJL and IBJR regulatory bodies, Betano is recognised for its dedication to upholding the highest standards of responsible gaming and integrity. Furthermore, the Betano brand has launched multiple CSR initiatives across the country in partnership with sponsored team, Clube AtlĂ©tico Mineiro. It also recently launched the âJuntos em Campoâ long-term program in cooperation with CBF (Brazilian Football Confederation) to promote initiatives focused on gender equality.
Awarded for the results and creativity of its innovative âFootball in Americaâ marketing campaign, Betano successfully introduced Latin America to its âConfiaâ brand platform by leveraging on its CONMEBOL Copa America
2024 sponsorship. The campaign chimed with the spirit of fans across the continent by celebrating Latin Americaâs rich football heritage, playfully responding to Kylian Mbappeâs 2022 comments questioning the regionâs football quality.
Vangelis Skarkalis, Kaizen Gaming Senior Commercial Director LATAM, said: âLatin America is one of the worldâs most dynamic and exciting regions for i-gaming. Being recognised as a leading player in this important market with two wins at the prestigious SBC Awards LatinoamĂ©rica is a great honour â especially on the heels of our recent double-win as âOperator of the Yearâ at both the EGR Operator Awards and SBC Awards. Achieving this success requires an exceptional team of dedicated, ambitious professionals. This award honours everyoneâs hard work and commitment to always going above and beyond in delivering the best experiences for our customers not only in Latin America, but worldwide too.â
