A charitable initiative linked to the Ronaldinho Crash game by FBMDS will be presented at the expo from October 8 to 10.
Press release.- FBM Digital Systems (FBMDS) and FBM Foundation are joining forces to organize a special charitable initiative linked to the Ronaldinho Crash game by FBMDS at this year's Global Gaming Expo (G2E) in Las Vegas. From October 8 to 10, visitors at booth 2848 will have the opportunity to participate in a Keepy-Uppy challenge, designed to help needy communities while promoting the spirit of solidarity.
The initiative invites attendees to demonstrate their soccer skills in a simple yet meaningful way: for every Keepy-Uppy (touch) that a participant successfully completes in the latest Ronaldinho Crash game, the FBM Foundation will donate a dollar to support vulnerable communities around the world. These donations will be made to people affected by natural disasters, children in need of educational resources, and other vulnerable groups.
This is the first participation of the FBM Foundation in an international casino gaming fair, and the choice of G2E Las Vegas for its debut was not random. "Choosing a stage like the Global Gaming Expo was the right step to show the Group's willingness to make a difference in the world, sharing its charitable footprint with a wider and more diverse audience of casino gaming enthusiasts, casino operators, players, and industry professionals," said the company.
Renato Almeida, director of the FBM group, stated: "We believe in the power of uniting for a greater purpose. This initiative not only highlights the spirit of teamwork that defines FBMDS, but also allows us to showcase the work of the FBM Foundation and our commitment to having a positive impact on the world with the help of G2E Las Vegas."
The FBM Foundation has long been dedicated to supporting causes that promote education, community development, and relief efforts for those affected by crises in the Philippines, Brazil, and other countries. "Through this challenge, FBMDS and the FBM Foundation aim to inspire action and demonstrate how collective efforts, whether on the field or off, can make a real difference in the lives of those who need it most," said Vítor Francisco, representative of the FBM Foundation.
The Ronaldinho Crash game is one of the latest releases from FBMDS, featuring global soccer legend Ronaldinho Gaúcho in an exciting crash game experience. The game, which was officially launched during the Copa América and will be available for trial at the fair, is already captivating crowds in multiple countries around the world.

Operation SOGA X was carried out in coordination with local authorities at various points around the planet, from Southeast Asia to Europe. It even dismantled a network that, in addition, trafficked people.
The Interpol announced the results of a massive operation against a fraudulent betting network in soccer, which resulted in the arrest of 5,100 people and the seizure of USD 59m in illegal earnings.
The Operation SOGA X focused on illicit betting during the Eurocup played between June and July this year in Germany, and which, in addition, served to unmask cases of human trafficking.
"In the Philippines, where local authorities, in collaboration with Interpol, dismantled a network operating camouflaged in a legally established betting house where 400 Filipino victims and another 250 from six other countries were accounted for," revealed the EFE news agency.
"Many of the victims had been lured to the place with false promises of employment and were kept there through threats, intimidation, and even confiscation of passports," the authorities pointed out. In Vietnam, law enforcement dismantled a sophisticated betting network that generated USD 800,000 per day in illegal transactions.
The international body based in Lyon also highlighted the dismantling of a network of criminals operating from Greece to commit crimes by creating false identities through stolen identity documents. This occurred in Spain and Portugal, among other countries.

"Illegal betting generates huge profits for criminal networks, such as money laundering, human trafficking, or corruption. The success of SOGA X would not have been possible without international cooperation," declared the executive director of Interpol's Police Department, Stephen Kavanagh.
