BGaming Launches a CSR Art Project in Brazil
Rapidly Expanding Content provider and renowned Art Institute in São Paulo partner up for an impactful creative project
Popular iGaming content provider BGaming is proud to announce the launch of a CSR-driven creative project in collaboration with Brazil’s A7MA Art Institute to support local artists, strengthen its ties with the community, and reinforce its commitment to cultural integration.
A7MA Art Institute is a renowned cultural space and gallery in São Paulo that brings together artists, canvases, brushes, and creative minds – united by a shared passion for amplifying contemporary art deeply influenced by street culture.
Last year, BGaming collaborated with A7MA solely on a charity project, but this year, the partnership has evolved into a major CSR-driven art project, which includes BGaming’s ongoing ‘When Art Meets Gaming’ initiative, designed to showcase the talent of local artists during industry events.
The collaboration with the renowned Art Institute in São Paulo is one of BGaming’s largest and most ambitious to date. Two leading artists from A7MA will create a unique artwork to be showcased at BGaming’s stand N80 at BiS SiGMA Americas. One artist will craft a vivid recreation of the ‘Elvis Frog in Vegas’ game character, while the second will enhance it with unique artistic elements.
In addition, a unique graffiti pattern created by A7MA artists, symbolizing Brazil’s vibrant culture, will serve as the key visual element of BGaming’s presence in São Paulo during the exhibition period.
Attendees of BiS SiGMA Americas can see the results of this collaboration firsthand, with the artwork on full display at BGaming’s stand during the event. Four A7MA artists have created exclusive artworks to be featured on gift posters and postcards for BGaming’s clients and exhibition visitors. The pieces blend Brazilian local motifs, gaming elements, and unique artistic styles. Through this initiative, BGaming continues to learn from local cultures, showcase artists’ talent, and provide them with financial support.
As part of a CSR-driven creative project, BGaming will sponsor an exhibition at the A7MA Gallery, which will run from March 22nd to April 17th. This charitable effort will provide crucial exposure for local artists, spotlighting the talent that São Paulo has to offer. It will also highlight the crucial role that young artists play in the community, with many acting as educators and helping to nurture other young artists and inspire a broader sense of creativity.
Kate Puteiko, CMO at BGaming, said: “At BGaming, we want to push the boundaries and change how people perceive the iGaming industry. Through our ‘Art Meets Gaming’ project, we continue to highlight the importance of art in local communities and the crucial roles artists play in developing local cultures. A7MA has been an absolute inspiration to work with, and we can’t wait for everyone at BiS SiGMA Americas to see the result.
Beyond the art itself, this collaboration allows us to make a real difference. By supporting local artists and launching charitable initiatives, we’re demonstrating that iGaming can be a force for positive change within the community.”
Marcos Ramos Enivo, Artist and Co-Founder at A7MA Art Institute, added: “We believe that supporting urban artists worldwide, especially those emerging from São Paulo, is essential for the growth of contemporary art. By creating spaces that give these artists visibility, we not only foster local culture but also offer a new perspective on how people see and interact with the city.
We are immensely grateful for BGaming’s continuous support of the A7MA Art Institute. This partnership has allowed us to keep bringing color and life to the city in a creative way, positively impacting the daily lives of countless people.”
SX Bet is the fastest-growing on-chain betting exchange—built for the future of sports and crypto.
SX Bet has officially launched on Berachain, marking the next milestone in its cross-chain expansion strategy. With over 2 million bets placed, $675 million wagered, and 93% year-over-year growth in volume, SX Bet is reshaping the future of sports betting — and Berachain is the next big stage.
SX Bet’s Berachain launch comes with a unique incentive structure designed to reward bettors for their activity. Users can now place bets using the native $HONEY stablecoin and earn $SXBRT, a receipt token that can be staked to the SX Vault on BeraHub to generate weekly yields in $BGT, Berachain’s governance token. The more you win, the more you earn.
SX Bet will be hosting a summer Berachain betting tournament with a 69,420 bet credit prize pool from May 31 – July 14th and airdropping bet credits to top Berachain communities.
But the Berachain deployment is not just about incentives. It’s about creating a scalable global liquidity hub for bettors and builders alike. Builders can leverage SX liquidity to launch their own custom betting frontends and experiences.
“SX Bet isn’t just a single dApp — it’s a betting protocol anyone can build on. With this Berachain launch, we’re not just growing SX, we’re growing the entire Web3 betting ecosystem,” said Andrew Young, SX Bet Project Lead.
The cross-chain architecture enables shared liquidity across multiple blockchains, allowing users to place bets on their preferred chain without sacrificing odds or depth.
Already the top sports betting dApp by volume on Arbitrum, SX Bet has achieved sustained growth without relying on ongoing incentives — proving that sharp odds, fast UX, and a product-first approach win. Bettors choose SX for its peer-to-peer, non-custodial, on-chain model — a platform with the best odds, deepest liquidity, and a clear message: winners are welcome.
SX Bet is setting the standard for scalable sports betting infrastructure in Web3.
For bettors: more rewards, deeper liquidity, and better odds.
For builders: a plug-and-play liquidity engine to leverage and build upon.
For chains: a sticky, high-volume dApp proven to drive user growth and retention.
