Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

The Entain Foundation, the non-profit organisation funded by Entain, is for the first time extending its support for community sports projects to Italy – where Entain operates through the Eurobet, bwin and Gioco Digitale brands.

The Entain Foundation has partnered with Sport Senza Frontiere Onlus to support underprivileged young people and their families in cities and towns across Italy, through the provision of community sports and tutoring.

The investment by the Entain Foundation will go directly into Sport Senza Frontiere Onlus’ intervention programme. As well as free access to 30 different sport disciplines, the program provides beneficiaries with school and tutoring services, counselling, health education and medical support, and support specifically for parents.

The investment is in line with the Foundation’s goals to invest in sports at the grassroots level. Entain, through the Foundation, already supports community sports initiatives in the UK, through its SportsAid partnership and Pitching In programme; Greece, through Team Forward, an Olympic-focused program to fund athletes, and further projects in Germany and Colombia.

Sport Senza Frontiere Onlus, established in Italy in 2009, is a non-profit organization. Its mission centres around sport being accessible to all and used as an effective tool for education, conflict prevention, inclusion, and social cohesion. The organization designs and organises free sport plans for children and teenagers from families across Italy at risk of exclusion, and who are experiencing economic hardship and social fragility. These plans are monitored by qualified staff and organised in co-operation with a Solidarity Network of over 180 sport associations.

The project, which will run throughout 2022, aims to reach a total of 400 direct beneficiaries in Naples, Rome, Milan, Turin, Bergamo and Trento.

“We have a fantastic partner in Sport Senza Frontiere Onlus, and through this collaboration, we will put our best efforts into transforming the lives of hundreds of disadvantaged children and teenagers across Italy – through which free access to sport and education is key. We hope to help grow the organization’s intervention program in years to come and make a real change to the lives of the program’s beneficiaries – setting them up for a brighter future,” Andrea Faelli, Managing Director of Eurobet, said.

In addition, the Foundation will also support Sport Senza Frontiere Onlus on a separate, second initiative, which will involve Entain employees working for its Eurobet brands in Italy. Called Wellbeing for Good, this is a six-month project starting next month which seeks to promote the wellbeing of Eurobet employees through sports activities, social inclusion projects and team building activities, and to encourage them to volunteer to support Sport Senza Frontiere Onlus activities.

RPM Gaming, a specialist in retail and online betting and gaming, has strengthened its senior executive team with the appointment of industry veteran Conleth Byrne as Strategic Partnerships Director.

Byrne brings with him two decades of leadership experience across the iGaming and technology sectors, having held directorial roles at IGT, The Football Pools, and SIS, alongside more recent strategic consultancy work with a range of high-growth businesses across the betting and gaming ecosystem.

Following a rapid period of growth at RPM Gaming, Byrne’s scope will be to translate his extensive experience in business strategy and operational excellence across various iGaming sectors into long-term value for the company’s global partners, adding significant value with his understanding of high-growth operations and ability to foster top-tier partnerships.

Richard Thorp, Founder at RPM Gaming, said: “Conleth’s a hugely respected figure in this industry, having operated in senior roles in high-stakes, high-growth environments for the past twenty years. His experience in-house with some of iGaming’s biggest names and in advisory roles for successful companies in a number of verticals will be a huge asset to our organisation and our global partners.”

Conleth Byrne, RPM Gaming’s Strategic Partnerships Director, added: “RPM Gaming has become the go-to name for ambitious iGaming firms looking to enter their next growth phase, from either a tech or new-market point of view. Joining this team – which is packed full of industry heavyweights – is a pleasure, and I’m looking forward to adding my own value to RPM and its customers.

“We want to cement RPM’s reputation as the one-stop shop for those who have strong visions but are, perhaps, unable to join the dots with internal resources in making that a reality. This team can do just that, with the connections, know-how, and go-to-market experience to take companies of all sizes to their next level.”
