Continent 8 Technologies set to debut in Brazil: Latin America’s next iGaming frontier

Full-service digital and cloud infrastructure provider to support customers launching in the fast-growing, emerging regulated Brazilian market with its cutting-edge solutions
Continent 8 Technologies, the award-winning managed hosting, connectivity, cloud and cybersecurity provider to the global iGaming and online sports betting industry, is set to launch in Brazil. This strategic expansion aims to address growing customer demand in this rapidly emerging market. The move comes in anticipation of the market’s quick progression towards a comprehensive regulation of its online offering, with an expected launch in the summer of 2024.
Its move into Brazil strengthens its position in the wider Latin America region, where it has taken an ambitious first-to-market approach to deliver tailored solutions to customers in the likes of Colombia, Peru and Puerto Rico. Brazil adds to a private network spanning more than 100 locations across the world, making it one of the Top 20 best connected networks globally.
Operators and suppliers in Brazil will be able to benefit from Continent 8’s full suite of innovative and reliable digital and cloud infrastructure solutions including a Public Cloud, a scalable and cost-effective offering, with a usage-based commercial model to suit the customer.
Customers will also be able to access its Gaming Exchange, a powerful private internet that offers unrivalled speed, capacity, and security, as well as a full suite of cybersecurity solutions designed to combat the ever-changing threat landscape.
Cybersecurity will be a major concern for both operators and suppliers making a move in Brazil as it is a hotbed for cyber-attacks, in addition to the iGaming and online sports betting industry being one of the most vulnerable to attack ahead of healthcare and finance.
Luana Monje, Sales Executive at Continent 8 Technologies, said: “Brazil looks set to be a hugely significant market and one that our customers are keen to explore.
“Digital and cloud infrastructure is the foundation of any successful online business, and we are delighted to be launching in Brazil to support new and existing customers with our solutions and services as they make their move in the market.”
Continent 8 has strategically positioned itself with certified operations in various locations across Latin America. This recent expansion into the Brazilian territory is integral to Continent 8’s long-term Latin American and global growth strategy as the company looks to deliver essential local, technical, and regulatory support in each new and emerging market.
Michael Tobin, Founder and CEO of Continent 8 Technologies, added: “For more than 25 years, we have been supporting customers as they launch into new and growing markets, and we couldn’t be more excited to be doing this in Brazil.
“This is a market that offers tremendous potential to both operators and suppliers, but they must have the right foundation in place to maximise the opportunities on the table. Continent 8 has the experience, expertise, and solutions to help businesses do just that.”

FanDuel Introduces New TV Show and Reinforces Responsible Gaming Initiatives During Problem Gambling Awareness Month

March is Problem Gambling Awareness Month, and FanDuel, North America’s premier online gaming company, is continuing to build its Responsible Gaming platform through new programming designed to expand access to responsible gaming education. The company is expanding its relationship with Craig Carton to launch “The Comeback with Craig Carton,” a new FanDuel TV show that will focus on problem gambling recovery. FanDuel is also adding new resources to the Trusted Voices: Conversations About Betting program that launched last year. Combined with continued support for non-profit partners, these initiatives continue to raise the visibility of problem gambling resources and responsible gaming education.
“FanDuel remains steadfast in its commitment to leading the industry in responsible gaming, and we are proud to introduce industry-first content and programs designed to destigmatize problem gambling and offer education on responsible play. Our new FanDuel TV show with Craig Carton, expanded Trusted Voices program and investments in education and advocacy are part of our year-round commitment to responsible gaming, and we look forward to continuing to offer innovative products and programs to our customers,” said Cory Fox, SVP of Public Policy and Sustainability at FanDuel.
New Problem Gambling Recovery Show on FanDuel TV
Former NBA player and basketball coach Randy Livingston and his wife, sports agent Anita Smith, are FanDuel responsible gaming ambassadors and recently appeared on the first episode of “The Comeback with Craig Carton,” a new show on FanDuel TV focused on problem gambling recovery and hosted by FanDuel’s responsible gaming ambassador Craig Carton. The show features Carton sitting down with those who have experienced the highs and lows of gambling addiction to amplify their stories, break down the stigma surrounding gambling disorder, raise awareness of support resources for individuals and their families and show that recovery is possible. Livingston and Smith were Carton’s first guests and spoke about their family’s history with problem gambling, including the challenges Livingston faced as a recovered problem gambler and Smith faced as his spouse. The episode is now streaming on YouTube and FanDuel TV+.
Trusted Voices Program Expansion and Promotion
New resources from the Trusted Voices: Conversations About Betting program are coming to ConversationsAboutBetting.com. The updates include new resources for college students, their parents, and university staff, including content from KnowYourPlay.org, co-developed by ROGA in partnership with EPIC Global Solutions, Kindbridge Behavioral Health, and the Responsible Gambling Council. FanDuel launched Trusted Voices with Livingston and Smith last year. The program is designed to equip trusted adults, including parents, guardians, and coaches, with tools and resources to talk to young people about gambling, associated risks, how to recognize warning signs and where to go for support. FanDuel is putting paid support behind the program across radio, digital, social, and digital out of home, with the ad campaign aiming to raise awareness of the risks of underage gambling and equip parents and coaches to have proactive and informed conversations about gambling.
Amplifying Gambling Disorder Screening Day
This year’s Gambling Disorder Screening Day, an effort originally founded by the Cambridge Health Alliance’s Division on Addiction, took place on March 11, and FanDuel partnered with Kindbridge Behavioral Health to empower customers nationwide with resources for informed decision making. FanDuel provided customers with Kindbridge’s free, confidential Gambling Disorder Screener and highlighted the telehealth counseling and support services available through Kindbridge for those seeking help. FanDuel also amplified awareness of the day across its social channels.
Supporting Non-Profit Partnerships
FanDuel is donating $150,000 to the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG) that will further support the NCPG’s Agility Grants program, which is funded by the NFL via the NFL Foundation. This program provides funding to non-profit organizations across the country for problem gambling prevention in areas that currently have no services or to expand existing programming.
“We are grateful to FanDuel for their generous support of the Agility Grants program. As the first national grant initiative dedicated to problem gambling prevention, this funding expands our ability to support community-based programs, strengthening the reach and impact of problem gambling prevention efforts nationwide,” said NCPG board president Susan Sheridan Tucker.
FanDuel will also make an additional $150,000 donation to the International Center for Responsible Gaming (ICRG). The organization is dedicated to helping individuals and families affected by gambling disorder and preventing the onset of gambling problems through high-quality scientific research and evidence-based educational programming. The donation will help fund the creation of a Center of Excellence (COE) focused on advancing research in responsible gambling behaviors. The COE will generate evidence-based insights to help contribute to industry-wide advancements in player protection, engagement strategies, and RG messaging.
“We are proud to partner with FanDuel as we work together to advance critical research that will shape the future of responsible gambling strategies. Support from FanDuel is helping fund a Center of Excellence focused on responsible gaming behaviors, and we look forward to generating evidence-based insights that make a positive impact on communities,” said Arthur Paikowsky, President of ICRG.
