EVOS Esports Announces Collaboration With Three Charity Organizations In Singapore
EVOS Esports, the leading esports organization in Southeast Asia, has announced a collaboration with three charity organizations in Singapore; with the Singapore Children’s Society, Club Rainbow and the Disabled People’s Association.
EVOS Esports is committed towards corporate social responsibility initiatives to aid the mentioned charitable organizations by assisting in fund raising events such as organizing charity show matches and having our players interact with the children, as they too are avid esports enthusiasts.
Singapore Children’s Society is a charitable organisation committed to bringing relief and happiness to children in need. They provide care and guidance to their beneficiaries through diverse programmes and services designed to meet their varied needs.
EVOS Esports is pleased to announce a donation of SGD$1,000 towards Singapore Children’s Society corporate giving programme, 1000 Enterprises for Children-in-Need (1000E). 1000E is a fundraising programme that aims to encourage small, medium and large companies to engage in corporate philanthropy by pledging their donation annually to Singapore Children’s Society.
Club Rainbow is also an organization for the children. They support and empower children with chronic illnesses and their families by providing compassionate relevant services in their journey towards an enriching life. Many of their services are geared towards helping the entire family in a holistic way as every family member is likely to be impacted by the child’s illness in one way or another.
The Disabled People’s Association (DPA) is Singapore’s only cross-disability non-profit organization. They represent the disability community, working to build a fairer society where everyone can participate in all aspects of life from education to employment and access to social integration.
Ivan Yeo, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of EVOS Esports said, “We are delighted to partner with Singapore Children’s Society, Club Rainbow, and the Disabled People’s Association. Supporting the less fortunate is part of EVOS Esports’ ingrained culture, as we have always believed in paying it forward. We hope to encourage the younger generation to join us in this initiative and make a positive impact.”
Joyce Teng, Director of Community Engagement & Partnerships of Singapore Children’s Society said, “We are excited to partner EVOS Esports to protect and nurture children, youth and families in need under our care. This year will continue to be a tough year and we hope that this collaboration will galvanise the esports and gaming community to help champion our cause as well.”
Dr. Sashikumar Ganapathy, President of Club Rainbow said, “We are glad to partner with EVOS Esports. Through this meaningful initiative, we hope that EVOS Esports’ supporters and members of the public can learn more about our cause and the funds raised can aid more children and families in need.”
Valerie Chia, Community Engagement Executive of Disabled People’s Association said, ““DPA would like to thank EVOS Esports for choosing to support the work that we do. Not only are they helping to raise funds to support the good work that we do for the disability community, they are also empowering more persons with disabilities to live better and more independently.”
One of EVOS Esports’ commitments is giving back to the community as well as helping the underprivileged especially in locations that we have market presence in, such as Singapore.

Faster Guest Entry at Korea’s INSPIRE Entertainment Resort’s Casino, Powered by Regula’s Technology
International guests arriving at South Korea’s largest foreigner-only casino, INSPIRE Entertainment Resort, now enjoy a significantly faster and more seamless check-in experience. Customer onboarding times have noticeably improved following the integration of Regula’s advanced identity verification technology. Regula Document Reader SDK, the most comprehensive ID verification solution in the world, integrates with the resort’s anti-money laundering (AML) procedures, boosting operational efficiency and compliance.
Seeking to enhance operational efficiency and meet evolving AML requirements, INSPIRE Entertainment Resort sought a faster and more accurate solution. The resort, which features a high-volume casino catering exclusively to foreign guests, needed a system capable of recognizing passports from around the globe with minimal friction.
Following vendor evaluations, INSPIRE selected Regula Document Reader SDK for its superior document reading speed, intuitive interface, and unmatched global ID coverage. Regula’s solution is powered by the company’s proprietary ID template database—the world’s largest—covering 15,000+ document templates across 254 countries and territories.
Deployed across six entrance stations, Regula Document Reader SDK enables real-time extraction and validation of critical ID data, such as name, date of birth, nationality, and passport number. This data is then passed directly to INSPIRE’s AML system, which in turn performs automated screening against external compliance and watchlist databases.
Since deploying Regula Document Reader SDK, INSPIRE Entertainment Resort casino has experienced:
- Faster document processing and guest entry.
- Significant reduction in manual rescans and staff workload.
- Consistently smooth onboarding, even during peak entry hours.
“As the team responsible for passport scanning at the casino, we’re very satisfied with the improvements Regula has brought. The speed of document processing has noticeably increased, and guest entry has become much smoother. It’s a reliable solution that has elevated the efficiency of our daily operations,” says Dr. Ilnam Lee, IT Director at INSPIRE Entertainment Resort.
“In industries like hospitality, every second counts. We’re happy to support INSPIRE Entertainment Resort in creating a faster and more secure guest onboarding experience while meeting strict AML requirements. Our focus is to make accurate identity verification seamless, even in complex international scenarios, and this project is a great example of that in action,” says Ihar Kliashchou, Chief Technology Officer at Regula.

The Philippine Senate’s committee on games and amusement is going to launch an inquiry to discuss a series of bills and proposals put forward to address concerns over the growth of online gambling, with the outcome likely to determine whether the industry should be subject to tighter regulations or possibly a total ban.
The inquiry, scheduled to take place from Thursday 14 August, follows the initial filing by Senator Sherwin Gatchalian in early July of a bill seeking to tighten rules around online gaming and specifically around the ease of utilizing e-wallets for cash transactions on online sites. That bill prompted others to push for a total ban, with Philippine President Ferdinand R Marcos Jr since revealing he would consider such a ban pending the outcome of discussions with various industry stakeholders.
“On Thursday we will tackle the bills on online gambling in the Senate committee on games and amusements. I made a commitment to prioritize these bills because the problem is escalating. It’s already a crisis. So, we really need to take action to solve this problem,” Senator Erwin Tulfo, one of the leading proponents of a total ban, said.
“Our problem is, we were not ready. There is no regulation, and it is why people are gambling recklessly. There is no control of up to how much to gamble. Come what may. Entire salaries are being gambled. Anything is being placed as a bet. Even children are gambling now.”
Tulfo revealed that the Senate committee will discuss four bills, three resolutions and a privilege speech addressing the social impact of the online gambling industry – also known as remote gaming or eGames. As reported by PAGCOR, the eGames sector generated GGR of US$2 billion in the first six months of 2025 alone.
Industry stakeholders, including licensed operators, have in recent weeks rallied to opposed a total ban while promising to support the implementation of some restrictions. On Friday, a group of 19 licensed online gaming operators announced the formation of the PlaySafe Alliance of the Philippines – a unified industry association they say is committed to responsible gaming, regulatory compliance, consumer protection and combatting illegal gambling.
