For Rodrigo Molina, founder of CONAFUT, addressing this issue has become indispensable at the current time: “We are following the growth of this niche in competitions and how the development of sport in the country can be impacted.”
“Therefore, the event also provides this environment to discuss the regulations, the effect on the sponsorship landscape and the best way to protect the honesty of each game.”
The legalization of sports betting in Brazil took place in 2018 and could move between R$ 120 billion (US$ 25b) and R$ 150 billion (US$ 31.5b) per year, according to government projections, with hundreds of bookmakers already operating in the country.
The conference will also provide awards, spaces for business and networking, an unprecedented and exclusive place for courses focused on football and lectures that present the subjects: diversity in football, management models, new sports media formats, growth of women's football, new league, among others.
