Betsson has entered a new two-year partnership with Peristeri BC, a well-established Athens club with more than 50 years of history, competing in the top tier of Greek basketball and in European competitions. As part of the agreement, the team will now compete under its official name, Peristeri Betsson BC.

This collaboration reflects Betsson’s continued investment in Greek sport. With more than six decades of heritage and operations across 24 countries, Betsson’s strategy in Greece is centred around supporting historic clubs, strengthening local communities and contributing to the broader development of sport in the country. Following Mykonos Betsson and Aris Betsson, Peristeri Betsson BC represents the next step in building a network of sponsorships that carry meaningful cultural and community impact.

For Peristeri, the partnership provides strong strategic backing for the club’s competitive ambitions and its long-term mission to remain a reference point within Greek basketball. Both organisations share a commitment to professionalism, consistency and delivering high-quality experiences to fans. The collaboration will also include a suite of social impact initiatives focused on youth, education, equality and access to sport in Peristeri.

Andreas Nikolopoulos, Commercial Director at Betsson, said: “It is a great pleasure for all of us at Betsson to stand alongside a club with such a strong history and identity as Peristeri, a club that has been a reference point in Greek basketball for decades and continues to grow thanks to the steady and methodical work of its management. We do not view this merely as a sponsorship but as a strategic alliance. We share the same values with Peristeri, professionalism, consistency and a constant commitment to offering high-quality experiences to fans. We are committed to supporting them throughout this journey and we wish the team a season full of health, energy and success.”

Manos Kotsis, General Manager of Peristeri Betsson BC, said: “We are now officially Peristeri Betsson and will be for the next two years. Our approach is based on two pillars: reconnecting with our local community and bringing people back to the arena, and restoring Peristeri’s identity as a club that develops talent, whether local or international. We believe we have made meaningful progress over the past two years, but both goals require strong organisation, planning and method. We are delighted that Betsson is by our side supporting this effort and enabling us to move forward with greater confidence.”
