SOFTSWISS has won the Socially Responsible Initiative of the Year award at the SBC Awards Latinoamérica 2024 for its impactful “Help Brazil” initiative.
The recognition highlights the company’s support for Brazilian communities affected by the massive flooding earlier this year and its commitment to implementing meaningful social responsibility projects.
The SBC Awards Latinoamérica celebrates excellence in the Latin American gaming industry, bringing together leading experts to recognize the achievements of operators, platform providers, affiliates, and suppliers across a variety of sectors. SOFTSWISS’ “Help Brazil” initiative stood out among the top entries, with judges praising its focus on community resilience and industry engagement.
Launched in May 2024, “Help Brazil” provided immediate assistance by delivering food, clothing, and clean water to flood-affected areas in Rio Grande do Sul in partnership with Movimento União BR. Continuing our commitment to a sustainable recovery, SOFTSWISS is partnering with PWTech to fund water treatment plants in affected schools to ensure long-term access to clean water.
Ivan Montic, founder of SOFTSWISS, said:
This prestigious award validates our commitment to making a real difference. As we expand our business in Latin America, we have built strong relationships with people and partners in the region and consider ourselves part of the local communities. When action was needed, we could not stand by. We are grateful that the Latin American industry has recognized and supported our initiative, and are immensely grateful to everyone who joined us in this effort, both locally and internationally.
Rubens Barrichello, Non-Executive Director for Latin America, added:
I am incredibly proud of SOFTSWISS’s commitment to a sustainable and compassionate approach. This recognition underlines our commitment to supporting communities in Brazil, where we are focused on making a meaningful impact. With such comprehensive projects, we demonstrate how our industry can step up when it matters most.
Continuing its commitment to local communities, in September this year, SOFTSWISS and its employees provided financial aid and essential supplies to flood-affected regions in Poland, where the company has two offices. The aid campaigns in Poland and Brazil reflect SOFTSWISS’s commitment to being a responsible partner to local communities and its broader focus on ESG principles through long-term initiatives in the areas of health, environment and social issues, including World Environment Day, Pink October and Movember.
SOFTSWISS invites its partners and customers to visit stand 2145 at the SiGMA Europe Summit to explore future collaboration opportunities.
