Veloce Racing reveals CanO Water partnership for Ocean X Prix
London-based Extreme E team, Veloce Racing has announced a one race partnership with revolutionary drink container solutions specialists, CanO water. This partnership was born from a mutual goal to disrupt their respective industries, changing the way people think about recyclable water storage as well as sustainable motorsport.
CanO Water was established after its three co-founders witnessed the horrifying effects of plastic pollution first-hand during a trip to Thailand in 2014. The sight of harmful plastic bottles littering the beaches inspired Josh White, Perry Alexander Fielding and Ariel Booker to dive deeper into the statistics surrounding plastic and aluminium recyclability. Following some worrying reading, CanO Water was born. Now, in 2021 the brand has sold over 15 million cans that are recyclable forever to stores and events across the UK.
With just 7% of total worldwide plastic being recycled, and the UK recycling 82% of aluminium beverage cans in 2020, the need for change is clear.
Veloce Racing meanwhile has made the leap from esports to real-world competition and has quickly established itself as a key player in electric motorsport.
Extreme E’s second race – the Ocean X Prix (29-30 May) – presented a perfect opportunity for this collaboration to take shape, with Veloce working with a local NGO to support efforts to decrease plastic pollution in Senegalese waters.
The one-race partnership will see CanO Water branding adorn the Veloce Racing ODYSSEY 21 bodywork while canned water will be supplied to the team to keep them on top of their game this weekend.
Daniel Bailey, CEO, Veloce Racing commented:
“We’re really excited to have CanO Water onboard for the Ocean X Prix. Their values align with our own so well and it ties in perfectly with the Legacy Programme which the team are supporting before the race in Senegal.
“Plastic pollution is obviously a huge problem and more needs to be done to combat it. The work CanO Water are doing to improve the recyclability of drinks containers is unparalleled, so we’re all hugely proud to announce this partnership.”
Josh White, Co Founder, CanO Water added:
“Collaborating with brands like Veloce is the perfect way for us to increase our visibility and get our message out there in front of fresh audiences that are sustainability conscious and engaged with the issues plastic pollution creates for our planet. Veloce’s environmental goals, make this the perfect place to be raising awareness for our brand.”

S8UL gaming creator and streamer Payal Dhare has partnered with OWND!, the Gen Z-focused fashion brand from Aditya Birla Fashion and Retail Limited, to launch a gaming-inspired fashion capsule called ‘Gamer Drop’. The companies describe it as India’s first female gamer-curated capsule. The collection will be available on OWND!’s website and in the brand’s stores across India.
According to the press release, ‘Gamer Drop’ includes menswear and womenswear pieces built around gaming culture and streetwear, positioned as a creator-led collection rather than conventional creator merchandise. The campaign leans on the growing overlap between gaming culture, creator communities, and youth fashion.
Marco Agnolin, Chief Executive Officer, OWND!. said, “We see gaming today as a powerful cultural force that is shaping how young consumers express themselves, communicate, and engage with fashion. As one of India’s biggest gamers, Payal Dhare represents this new generation perfectly through her authenticity, confidence, and deep connection with the gaming community. Her influence extends far beyond gaming content, making her an ideal face for our gaming collection. Through this collaboration, we aim to celebrate individuality and connect with India’s digitally native youth in a way that feels relevant, inclusive, and culture-driven.”
Payal Dhare aka Payal Gaming said, “Gaming today has become a culture and a form of self-expression for millions of young people across the country. That’s what makes this collaboration with OWND! so exciting for me. With this curation, I wanted to create something that genuinely reflects my vibe and the energy of my community. It’s stylish, comfortable, expressive – and made for people who want to own who they are.”
The release also points to India’s expanding creator economy. Citing a Boston Consulting Group report, it says India has nearly 2 to 2.5 million creators, with more than 60% of consumers exposed to creator-led content and over 30% of shoppers influenced by creators in purchase decisions.

BETBY Announces Strategic Partnership with Vibra Gaming
BETBY, the leading B2B sportsbook supplier, has announced a new strategic partnership with Vibra Gaming. The agreement will see BETBY deliver its full sportsbook solution to Vibra Gaming, further accelerating its expansion across the LatAm region.
Through this collaboration, Vibra Gaming will integrate BETBY’s complete sportsbook offering covering more than 500,000 monthly events, including its advanced AI-powered tools, AI Labs, and proprietary esports feed, Betby.Games. Delivered via a single, seamless API integration, the solution enables Vibra Gaming to incorporate a fully scalable sportsbook directly into its platform, allowing its operator partners to roll out sports betting efficiently while reducing technical complexity and accelerating time-to-market.
The integration addresses key challenges associated with launching a sportsbook, particularly the technical demands and resource requirements involved. By leveraging BETBY’s solution, Vibra Gaming can extend its platform capabilities without adding significant development overhead, while enabling its partners to introduce sports betting as part of a broader, multi-vertical offering.
A key component of the agreement is the inclusion of Betby.Games, BETBY’s award-winning esports feed, which aligns closely with Vibra Gaming’s localized approach. The portfolio features hyper-localized, industry-first titles such as eVaquejada and eFootVolley, designed specifically to resonate with Latin American audiences, further strengthening engagement across the region.
The partnership comes as BETBY continues to reinforce its position in Latin America, a strategic market where the provider has been actively investing and expanding its footprint. With operational licenses in Brazil and Peru, and a growing network of regional partners, this collaboration marks an important step in BETBY’s long-term growth strategy across LatAm.
Stefanos Karakidis, Business Development Director at BETBY, said: “This partnership is a natural fit for both sides. Vibra Gaming has built a platform that reflects the expectations of Latin American operators, and that creates the ideal environment for our sportsbook to deliver value. Besides that, what makes this collaboration particularly strong is how seamlessly our solution integrates into Vibra’s ecosystem, enabling their casino operator partners to expand into sports betting in a fast, efficient, and scalable way.”
Werter Luna, CEO at Vibra Gaming, said: “At Vibra Gaming, our priority is to provide our partners with flexible, locally relevant solutions that help them grow. Integrating BETBY’s sportsbook allows us to expand our platform with a best-in-class sports betting offering that matches our standards in terms of performance and adaptability. We’re particularly excited about the potential of combining their technology and esports content with our localized approach to further enhance the player experience across Latin America.”
