Founded in March this year, the Brazilian Institute of Responsible Gaming (IBJR) is one of the most important organizations in Brazil in defense of a regulated market and attentive to the importance of responsible operator practices in supporting the industry and bettors.
Leading firms such as bet365, Flutter, Entain, Betsson Group, Betway Group, Yolo Group, NetBet Group, KTO Group, LeoVegas, Novibet, Better Collective, Rei do Pitaco, OKTO and Pay4Fun are part of the IBJR.
The founders' mission is to seek dialogue with all sectors of society interested in deepening knowledge about the industry and understanding its balanced and harmonious integration with the Brazilian economy, following examples from other countries.
For Andre Gelfi, president of IBJR, “it is an honor to associate with SBC for the SBC Summit Rio. As this will be the first event in a regulated Brazil, it is important for us to associate with a company that contributes to the industry with the objective of discussing all urgent topics in the country and supporting our values with its content and educational efforts.”
“We see this as a fantastic opportunity to come together with thousands of participants looking to capitalize on the growing opportunities in Brazil, in a sustainable and responsible way,” said Gelfi.
Regarding the partnership, Cristian Robalino, VP of marketing at SBC Américas, stated: “As advocates of fair and effective policies and regulations, IBJR has proven to be invaluable to the Brazilian market and its continued development. Leveraging IBJR's regulatory and responsible gambling expertise will help to further elevate our understanding and experience in this market, providing benefits not only to us as event organizers but also to the wider betting community, including operators, affiliates, suppliers and sports clubs.”
