The global tech and betting brand continues its partnership with the Turin-based legendary football club and looks back at the successful year of prior cooperation.

Juventus Football Club, one of the world’s most famous teams, and Parimatch, the international tech, and betting brand, mark the first year of a successful partnership. As the new Serie A season 2021-2022 kicked off on August 21st, Juventus and Parimatch aim to create new exciting campaigns as part of the partnership deal.

“Our first year of partnership with Juventus was a tremendous success, and we can’t express how much fun and excitement working with this iconic team brought to Parimatch. Being a partner to a legendary club with over 120 years’ worth of history is an honor, and as our second year of mutual work begins, we can’t wait to launch several powerful campaigns together. I am sure Juventus fans will be as excited as we are, as Juventus and Parimatch are ready to create even bolder and more entertaining digital and offline experiences than before. Stay tuned!” – says Ivan Liashenko, CMO at Parimatch Tech.

One of the notable global campaigns launched in partnership between the legendary club and Parimatch brand aired this March when top Juventus players starred in an international video ad infused with Parimatch’s yellow electric impulses. The video was shot and produced in 2020 with strict adherence to COVID-related limitations, and proved to be a worthy and refreshing creative challenge both for the Juventus and Parimatch teams.

The TV spot featuring Juventus stars was shot by directors Andrei Copots and Macar Severin, representing Ukrainian production company Electric Sheep Film. The video campaign was a huge global success, engaging with millions of Juventus fans across the globe.

2021 was one of the most successful years for Parimatch brand in terms of new partnerships and deals. For instance, the tech company signed or prolonged the deals with six English Premier League clubs (Chelsea F.C., Everton F.C., Leicester City F.C., Southampton F.C., Aston Villa F.C., and Brighton & Hove Albion F.C.), securing a strong presence in the league and covering 30% of the in England’s top football championship.

Alona Shevtsova, CEO of Sends, will moderate a panel at The Blockchain show on 29^th June, bringing together experts from entertainment, location-based gaming, and content localisation to examine what it takes to build sustainable gaming ecosystems across emerging markets.

The panel, titled “Global Gaming Expansion: Lessons from Untapped Markets,” will structure its discussion across four themes: the growth dynamics reshaping emerging gaming markets; the role of localisation in creating experiences that genuinely connect with new audiences; the infrastructure and communities needed to build gaming ecosystems beyond the game itself; and the lessons and opportunities that will define successful expansion in the years ahead.

Alona Shevtsova plans to frame the discussion around the central challenge for companies looking to expand globally: entering a new market requires far more than bringing an existing product to a new audience. Understanding local cultures, building communities, adapting experiences, and creating ecosystems that allow gaming to grow sustainably are all as important as the product itself.

Alona Shevtsova, CEO of Sends, said:

“The future growth of gaming will come not only from new technologies, but from understanding people — their cultures, communities, and the experiences they want to be part of. Successful expansion will belong to those who can combine global ambition with local understanding.”

The first segment will examine why regions including the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia are becoming increasingly significant for developers, operators, and investors — driven by young audiences, accelerating digital adoption, and new entertainment models creating substantial growth potential. Panellists will explore how consumer preferences differ across markets and what trends among younger audiences are shaping the future of gaming and entertainment.

The third segment will broaden the lens beyond the game itself, exploring the role of location-based entertainment, gaming centres, esports, and experiential destinations in attracting new audiences and building long-term communities. Panellists plan to address how entertainment ecosystems — spanning physical venues, events, and community infrastructure — accelerate gaming adoption in markets where the category is still establishing itself.

Earlier this month, Alona Shevtsova was shortlisted for the 2026 Great British Entrepreneur Awards in the Established Business of the Year category. Her team is also preparing for the Fintech Connect conference in London later this year. Sends will be a leading sponsor of this event.
