Singapore, April 25, 2024 – As the anticipation for UEFA EURO 2024 reaches a fever pitch, SIRAYA Technologies leverages CDNetworks’ enhanced global infrastructure to accelerate and secure user experiences for this major football tournament. CDNetworks, the Global-leading Network to deliver Edge as a Service, announces its strategic expansion across Latin America and Southeast Asia. With a notable presence in these critical regions, CDNetworks is uniquely positioned to deliver unparalleled digital experiences during one of the world's most-watched sporting events.

In recent years, CDNetworks has cemented its presence with 50 Points of Presence (PoPs) across key countries in Latin America, including Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Peru, and Ecuador, among others. This robust network infrastructure is set for further expansion, with plans to build an additional 25 PoPs throughout the region. The expansion is supported by nearly 40 partnerships with major ISPs such as Claro, Telefónica, Telecom Argentina, Megacable, Bitel, Mundo, TIM, Vtal, and UFINET, positioning CDNetworks as one of the few edge service providers capable of establishing a comprehensive array of its own PoPs in Latin America.

Moving to Southeast Asia, CDNetworks is set to enhance its network capability significantly by adding over 55 new PoPs in Southeast Asia alone. This ambitious expansion aims to enhance CDNetworks’ network capacity by multiple Tbps, substantially increasing and securing 100% network coverage. Recognized for its unparalleled CDN performance in Asia, CDNetworks enhances the region's connectivity and security, which are crucial for real-time iGaming platforms that demand surge traffic management and superior user experience.

In anticipation of the UEFA EURO 2024, a high-profile event that draws significant online traffic, CDNetworks is intensifying its cybersecurity measures by setting up local scrubbing centers in Brazil, Chile, and Peru. These strategically placed centers are crucial in safeguarding iGaming platforms from the increasingly sophisticated DDoS attacks expected during such major sporting occasions, ensuring these platforms remain both secure and fully operational.

With a formidable array of over 20 global DDoS scrubbing centers and a total scrubbing capacity exceeding 15+ Tbps, CDNetworks offers comprehensive protection. This extensive network is specifically designed to uphold the integrity and continuity of online gaming services, particularly during events like the UEFA EURO 2024 that attract massive global attention. This proactive approach reinforces the security perimeter around iGaming infrastructures and underscores CDNetworks’ commitment to providing a safe, uninterrupted gaming experience amidst the heightened excitement of major sports events.

As excitement for UEFA EURO 2024 mounts, CDNetworks is ready to support the influx of online traffic with its advanced network and cybersecurity solutions. The company invites iGaming providers to leverage its state-of-the-art CDN and cybersecurity technology for a seamless and secure betting experience during the tournament and beyond.

In a recent one-on-one interview, Alexandre Tomic, Founder of Alea, shared insights into what makes the best place to work. Founded in 2012, Alea has always prioritised investing in its employees, a culture that has matured and evolved over the years.

The company recently completed the construction of a new office, a project that took two and a half years and exceeded the initial budget of $50,000, eventually costing over half a million dollars. Despite not owning the building, Alea has created a space that caters to the needs of its employees. The office is divided into two distinct areas: a workspace on the first floor and a relaxation area at street level. The latter includes a gym, a dining area, and even a hyperbaric chamber, an impressive piece of technology that Alexandre Tomic was eager to discuss.

Alea provides its employees with high-quality water, he says, including local Catalan brands such as Vichy Catalan. While it may seem trivial, Alex emphasised the importance of providing good water and ensuring that the air is fresh and free from pollution, especially given the office’s location in an industrial zone.

Before moving into the new office, Alea provided its employees with Oura rings, wearable devices that monitor various health metrics. The goal was to promote self-awareness among employees about their health and well-being. Although the company had considered collecting this data anonymously, they ultimately decided against it to respect the privacy of their employees.

When the COVID-19 pandemic hit in March 2020, Alea took steps to support its employees during a challenging time. Despite not experiencing any direct deaths within the company, the pandemic affected everyone, including Alexandre Tomic, whose father passed away in the first week. Alea’s commitment to its employees, investment in a conducive workspace, and emphasis on health and well-being make it a truly exceptional place to work. As Alexandre Tomic puts it, “We’ve always had that culture since the beginning.” And it’s clear that this culture is a key factor in Alea’s success.

It’s mind-blowing how far we’ve come and how much progress continues to be made across the entire business. From casino, sports and platform that are all showing extremely positive signs of sustained growth and expansion, to our affiliate, payments and live casino divisions that are pushing the boundaries of technology and paving the way for future success, we’re in a fantastic position for the remainder of 2024 and beyond.

Popular iGaming content provider BGaming has bolstered its ongoing commitment to grassroots arts by making donations to the A7MA Galeria Institute in Sao Paulo, Brazil, which supports children’s creative development.

As part of its ‘When Art Meets Gaming’ project, BGaming has collaborated with several local artists to create murals for industry events over the last year. For SiGMA Americas in April, the studio also chose to give back to the host city by funding art projects for children.

BGaming made a donation to support three charity initiatives. A portion was donated to coordinate a visit to the A7MA Gallery, where children from the Felicidarte Project took a tour of popular tourist attraction ‘Batman’s Alley’ and learnt about the art. Later, A7MA funded an activity where children were invited to transform the facades of their homes into colourful murals.

Another part of the donation was allocated to renovations for Felicidarte Project’s warehouse space, to revamp the area so it can invite school groups each week and distribute food to the underprivileged areas.

The significant charitable push follows a successful SiGMA Americas in Sao Paulo from 23rd to 26th April, where BGaming collaborated with artistic duo, Clandestinos Art, to reinterpret BGaming’s iconic game heroes, and create a limited edition merchandise collection, branded gifts and their stand design.

Marina Ostrovtsova, CEO at BGaming, said: “At BGaming, it brings us so much joy to see our donations promoting art among the young people of Sao Paulo. 

“As we have proven over the past year with our ‘Art Meets Gaming’ project, creativity unites us all and we were delighted to hear how much the children enjoyed the activities provided. We can’t wait to hear about these budding artist’s creations in the future.”

Marcos Ramos Enivo, Artist and Counsellor at A7MA Galeria Institute, said: “We are grateful to BGaming for their support of our work at A7MA. The activities exceeded our expectations, with 47 artists present and 46 facades revitalised by the children.

“It was an absolute success. People in the favelas who are sometimes invisible to the government can now feel seen, recognised and valued.”
