Popular iGaming content provider BGaming has supported a biodiversity education programme in Lisbon, with the view of developing children’s artistic skills and promoting community cohesion.

The creative game studio gifted €10,000 to The European Intercultural Club, a non-profit organisation that supports youth education, training and employability, this summer. BGaming’s generous donation has now been used for club premises repairs and organisational needs, with another portion financing a project to support children’s skills development.

The new programme ‘Urban Nature Project – A Macro Story’ will help students integrate with the urban environment around them in a hands-on and multi-disciplinary way. The youngsters will combine elements of nature with cinema and audiovisual techniques, as supported by cinematic artist Gonçalo Almeida.

After embarking on observatory nature walks, the students of the Urban Nature Project will join Almeida to learn the fundamental techniques of cinema, including narrative, filming and editing techniques, with the aim of promoting environmental awareness, developing creative skills and strengthening ties between the school, community and the Great Outdoors.

Gonçalo Almeida was born in Portugal and began his career as a film director, growing to become one of the biggest names in fantasy cinema. He has directed and produced a number of critically acclaimed works including Faz-Me Companhia, The Girl from Saturn and The Advent.

This charity project marks the third creative cause supported by BGaming in 2024, after they made donations to a Brazilian art institute and a youth chess centre in Poland ahead of other major industry events.

Marina Ostrovtsova, CEO at BGaming, said: “Creativity is a proven way to support young children’s development, and we take joy in donating to valuable causes that champion this. Just as BGaming is dedicated to producing the most creative games on the market, we are committed to building strong communities through art.

“The children at The European Intercultural Club are sure to benefit from their time taking part in this semester-long project and we can’t wait to hear about the results.”

Ana Quintela, General Coordinator at The European Intercultural Club, added: “We’re happy that BGaming reached out to us, enabling the local school to implement a cinema workshop project.

“This donation came at the perfect time, allowing us to support an educational initiative that aligns with our community’s needs.”

Under the theme “Perspectives,” a total of 43 compliance staff members from the Merkur Group across various countries gathered from 30 June to 1 July to further develop compliance processes in a sustainable manner. Colleagues from Germany, Spain, England, Malta, Australia and the US traveled to the two-day meeting at Benkhausen Castle, the in-house training centre of the Merkur Group. The workshop set the stage with expert presentations on global and digital topics such as cybersecurity, risk management and artificial intelligence. A panel discussion featuring representatives from various international companies within the Merkur Group, as well as a digital quiz, rounded out the programme.

In keeping with its guiding principle, the workshop focused on sharing experiences, fostering global networking and providing impetus for the further development of compliance processes. Because informal exchanges are also key to close cooperation, the evening programme created a relaxed atmosphere and gave participants the opportunity to continue their conversations, make new connections, and further strengthen team spirit across company and national boundaries.

“The ideas and diverse perspectives gained during the workshop will now be incorporated into our day-to-day work and help us to continuously improve collaboration and existing processes,” said Ludwig Beckmann, Chief Compliance Officer of the Merkur Group.

The concluding feedback session also highlighted just how valuable the international exchange is. The term “collaboration” came up particularly often, a clear indication of how highly the participants value working closely together within the international compliance network.

GRAI Launches New Campaign Helping Parents to Spot the Signs of Underage Gambling

The Gambling Regulatory Authority of Ireland (GRAI) is encouraging parents and guardians to be alert to the signs of gambling among young people and to intervene early to prevent gambling harm.

The signs of gambling aren’t always visible, the GRAI in partnership with the Health Service Executive Addiction Services have developed dedicated advice on www.grai.ie to equip families with the knowledge to recognise the signs, advice on how to start the conversation with their children about gambling, and where to seek help if required.

To support the guidance, the GRAI has launched a national public awareness campaign across video on demand, radio, digital audio, and social media platforms, bringing this message directly to families across Ireland.

With the lines between entertainment and gambling increasingly blurred, especially online, what may look like harmless fun can still involve risk, money and chance in ways that affect young developing brains. Research commissioned by the GRAI and conducted by the Economic and Social Research Institute (ESRI) found that children who gamble are twice as likely to develop a gambling problem as adults.

Anne Marie Caulfield, CEO of the GRAI said: “We have launched this campaign to help parents start an important conversation about the risks of underage gambling. Children and young people are among the most at-risk members of Irish society when it comes to gambling exposure and harm. Children’s brains are still developing the judgement and impulse-control systems used to weigh up risk, which makes gambling appealing to them.

“With online gambling available at any time of the day, it is easy for the warning signs to be hidden. The guidance the GRAI developed with the HSE Addiction Services sets out some of the key behavioural signs to look out for in your child.”
