Novibet Partners with Cruz Azul

The leading GameTech company announces its first strategic partnership with a sports entity in Mexico, marking a new era in fan experience. As part of its global strategy, Novibet, the multi-award-winning international GameTech and digital entertainment company, has joined forces with Cruz Azul, one of the most iconic and historic football clubs in the country, thereby strengthening its presence in the region and betting on a passionate market undergoing digital transformation. Together with La Máquina, Novibet aims to establish itself as a key player in the Mexican sports ecosystem through a five-year agreement that includes branding on the chest and shoulder of the team’s jersey. The deal also features a series of initiatives designed to actively enhance the fan experience through the integration of technology, innovation, and entertainment, transforming the way Cruz Azul fans engage with the team they love. Novibet has already demonstrated its growth and strength in other major markets such as Brazil, Greece, and Ireland, where it has built partnerships with high-profile clubs in leagues like the Greek Super League and the Premier League. Mexico is the second-largest sports betting market in Latin America, only behind Brazil, where Novibet has already established strong partnerships in the region. In Mexico, over 80% of sports bets are placed on football, with Liga MX being the dominant force in the country's sports betting scene. Within this context, bringing Cruz Azul—one of the most traditional and influential teams in the country—into the Novibet family represents a natural and strategic alliance. This union paves the way for innovative activations and unique experiences that will transform every matchday, on and off the field, placing the fan at the heart of the action. "We are proud to partner with such an iconic club as Cruz Azul, whose legacy and passion for the sport align perfectly with our values of innovation, entertainment, and commitment to an elevated fan. This partnership not only strengthens our presence in Latin America—it also allows us to connect with millions of football fans in the country,” said Nikos Papadoglou, General Manager of Novibet. On this matter, Eng. Víctor Velázquez, president of CF Cruz Azul, stated: "The alliance with Novibet is great news. As I mentioned at the end of the Concacaf Champions Cup, we are committed to consolidating a team for the ages, and these partnerships allow us to move precisely in that direction. I am also very happy for the fans, who will benefit from great experiences and the best entertainment, hand in hand with our friends at Novibet." With this partnership, Novibet and Cruz Azul are not only celebrating their union but also the beginning of a new phase focused on innovation, fan engagement, and mutual growth in one of the world’s most passionate markets. What begins as a strategic collaboration promises to become a unique experience for the Celeste community and football fans throughout Mexico.

Novibet’s Giant Heart supports The Hellenic Initiative Summer Youth Academy as a Gold Sponsor

As part of its ongoing CSR program, Giant Heart, Novibet proudly announces its collaboration with The Hellenic Initiative (THI), supporting the THI Summer Youth Academy as a Gold Sponsor. This initiative will bring together over 100 young people aged 10–17 who are eager to grow, connect, and have fun through basketball. Special priority will be given to children and adolescents who need it most, offering them a unique life experience that will shape them both on and off the court. The Summer Youth Academy will run from June 30 to July 25, split into two sessions, and will take place at the Leonteios School facilities in Patissia. The program is organized in collaboration with Eurohoops, which is responsible for its design and implementation. With a key message “The game begins in your neighborhood”, Novibet also launches the Giant Heart Roadshow, aiming to reach even more young people and foster stronger community engagement. At the heart of this initiative is a branded van equipped with a mobile basketball hoop, which will tour key neighborhoods of Athens during the registration period. The van will make 30-minute stops at central and high-traffic areas, inviting children and parents to discover the philosophy of the Academy through interactive sports and entertainment activities. Additionally, the Giant Heart Roadshow will host special events at basketball courts that Novibet has renovated and donated to municipalities across Attica in recent years, actively advancing the program’s vision of free access to high-quality sports infrastructure for all. Open community events will be held at the following Giant Heart Courts:
  • Moschato–Tavros Municipality (Metamorfoseos Street): Saturday, May 24, 18:00–21:00
  • Kifisia Municipality – Workers’ Housing Area (Marinou Antypa Street): Saturday, May 31, 18:00–21:00
At these events, children and their families will be immersed in the spirit of the Summer Youth Academy through experiential games, interactive activities, and engaging presentations. These initiatives are a natural extension of the Giant Heart mission: to make sports, inspiration, and inclusion an integral part of everyday life. As Christoforos Bozatzidis, Chief Marketing Officer at Novibet, stated: "Supporting the THI Summer Youth Academy marks another important step in the journey of Giant Heart. We truly believe that sports are a powerful driver of inclusion and empowerment, especially for children who don’t start from an equal playing field. We are proud to stand by their side, giving them the opportunity to grow, be inspired, and shape their future." Nick Stathopoulos, Member of the Board at THI and President of this year’s Summer Youth Academy, added: "We are thrilled to launch the 2025 Academy. Once again, we welcome children who deserve access to opportunity and inspiration. This year, our program expands to reach more age groups and amplify its social impact. This will also be reflected in the neighborhoods of Athens through ‘The Giant Heart Roadshow.’ We thank Novibet’s Giant Heart for its generous Gold Sponsorship. Its support strengthens our efforts and advances the Academy’s mission. We invite others to join us in this journey." With a firm commitment to social contribution, Novibet’s Giant Heart program continues to invest in meaningful initiatives that make a real difference in local communities and the lives of the next generation.
