La Asociación de Loterías, Quinielas y Casinos Estatales de Argentina (ALEA) and Gaming Laboratories International (GLI®) Announce Regulator Scholarship Program

La Asociación de Loterías, Quinielas y Casinos Estatales de Argentina (ALEA) and Gaming Laboratories International (GLI®) have created a new scholarship program for Argentine regulators.
The GLI/ALEA scholarship for students will benefit those who are interested in obtaining the Technician in Management and Administration of Games of Chance degree that is part of the Professionalization program of the association with the University of Salta in Argentina.
The Technician in Management and Administration of Games of Chance, managed by ALEA and the Provincial University of Public Administration (UPAP) of Salta, is the first career in Latin America of university training for the games of chance sector, and is designed for those who work in gambling regulation and private sector companies operating gaming halls.
The association provides training to Argentine lotteries personnel, which numbers more than 14,000 employees. In 2017, it added the Technician in Management and Administration of Games of Chance to its offer of courses, seminars, and congresses.
“It is a joy to announce this new Scholarship together with GLI. Even more satisfying is knowing that, thanks to this partnership, we now offer more possibilities to those who wish to study the Technician in Management and Administration of Games of Chance degree. We invite all those interested to join the Race, as registration for 2023 is about to begin,” said Mario Trucco, Executive Director of ALEA.
“We are very pleased to establish this scholarship alongside ALEA. GLI has been committed to the growth of the gaming industry in Argentina, the Caribbean, and all Latin America for decades, working closely with regulators and industry leaders on a path of sustainable growth throughout the region. Now, this scholarship is aimed to support one of ALEA’s objectives, which is to create further opportunities for the professionalization of regulators, with a unique technical gaming degree unprecedented in the Latin America region, which in turn, strengthens the industry,” said Karen Sierra-Hughes, Vice President of Latin America & the Caribbean.
GLI’s history in Argentina originated in 2003 when the first provinces implemented the technical compliance process, and its footprint solidified in 2007 when the company formed a partnership with the Universidad Nacional de La Plata (UNLP) to create GLI South America. The partnership utilizes GLI’s extensive operating knowledge, UNLP’s deep technological capabilities, and an outstanding reputation for integrity. Ever since, GLI South America has offered both land-based and online gaming and lottery testing services and independent field inspection services in Argentina.

BETesporte Reinforces Commitment to Sports with Major Investments Across Brazil

Investment in championships, clubs, and national teams expands media assets and positions BETesporte as a key player in Brazil’s sports market.
BETesporte, a betting platform that proudly carries “sports” in its name, is reaffirming its leadership in the industry by reporting consistent investment results over the past four months. While most betting platforms generate the majority of their revenue from online games (virtual casinos), BETesporte stands out as one of the few where sports betting leads the way — accounting for 65% of its total revenue, compared to 35% from online games. This figure directly reflects its brand strategy and commitment to strengthening Brazilian sports.
“Over the last four months, we’ve consolidated our presence on multiple fronts, focusing on strategic returns and high-quality visibility. We’ve sponsored several state championships in all regions of the country, including the Paulista, Paranaense, Carioca, Alagoano, Gaúcho, Pernambucano, Cearense, Catarinense, Baiano, and Mineiro tournaments, as well as the highly engaging Copa do Nordeste. We’ve also invested in Series A and B of the Brasileirão, placing our brand on Brazil’s biggest football stages and ensuring mass exposure with a high value per impression. It’s a strategic allocation of resources designed to generate brand impact and strengthen the Brazilian sports ecosystem,” said Thiago Carvalho, CFO at BETesporte.
Among the platform’s most notable recent acquisitions is brand exposure during Brazil’s national team matches in the World Cup Qualifiers — a move that reinforces BETesporte’s presence on the global football stage and strengthens its connection with fans during highly visible moments.
“We truly believe in the power of sports as a driver of connection and engagement. At BETesporte, we’re constantly investing in improving our platform with new features and more real-time betting options. Our marketing plan is performance-oriented: we aim to energize Brazil’s sports scene through active sponsorships in Series A and B of the national league — with master sponsorships, LED field displays, and direct club support. We bet on sports both as a passion and a business,” added Danylo Campos, CTO of BETesporte.
Beyond football, BETesporte is expanding its social impact by supporting up-and-coming athletes, providing financial assistance to help them compete and grow in sports like kickboxing, table tennis, and jiu-jitsu — an initiative that helps uncover new talent and democratize access to high-performance sports.
The company also maintains partnerships with traditional clubs like CRB, CSA, and Volta Redonda, reinforcing its regional presence and boosting local fanbases with strong community ties.
BETesporte’s credibility is further strengthened by the presence of legendary Brazilian football figures as brand ambassadors, including Zico, Vampeta, Diego Souza, and Macaé — personalities who bring even more legitimacy to the company’s presence in the sports world.
