meridianbet’s-leadership-in-2023:-61%-of-top-managerial-roles-held-by-women

 

In 2023, Meridianbet emerged as a contender for the most DEI-compliant betting and gaming brand globally, with women occupying 61% of its top managerial positions, marking a significant rise from 58% in 2021.

This achievement not only exemplifies Meridianbet’s commitment to gender equality but also sets a high standard compared to global diversity, equity, and inclusion benchmarks.

Gender equality at Meridianbet is a policy-driven initiative, not merely a compliance requirement, and it started from Day 1. The company ensures zero gender pay disparity, thereby supporting a complete eradication of the gender gap within its ranks. This commitment is manifested in its leadership demographics, significantly surpassing the most progressive DE&I standards globally.

The distribution of female management across Meridianbet’s operations varies by region, reflecting the company’s broad and inclusive reach. In Europe, 58% of managerial roles are held by women, while the Americas report a slightly higher figure at 60%. Africa stands out with an impressive 69%, showcasing Meridianbet’s effective policies in diverse cultural contexts.

Inclusion is deeply embedded in Meridianbet’s operational ethos. The company not only aims to attract the best global talent but also ensures that its recruitment and professional development strategies foster an environment where every employee, regardless of gender, feels valued, respected, and heard.

The forthcoming weeks are expected to provide more insights as Meridianbet prepares to share further achievements and plans in its continued pursuit of excellence in corporate responsibility.

Betmotion is pleased to announce that BetSocial, its Corporate Social Responsibility project, has achieved significant success in its recent autism awareness campaign in partnership with the AFETO Association.

For the second consecutive year, this collaboration has not only promoted awareness of autism but also raised significant funds to support children and adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

BetSocial’s initiative demonstrated Betmotion’s commitment to social impact, highlighting its role in promoting community well-being. Over three days, the “Cofrinho Solidário” bingo room was the hub of activities, where 100% of the proceeds from sold bingo cards were directly reverted to the AFETO Association. This year, the campaign doubled the funds raised compared to the previous year and significantly increased card sales, demonstrating a growing community engagement.

“BetSocial was created to broaden our social action and strengthen the communities we interact with,” said Bianca Passos, Bingo Manager and one of the founders of BetSocial. “This campaign reflects our commitment to not only entertain but also positively contribute to society. We are thrilled with the support received and the results achieved, and this only reinforces the importance of initiatives like this.”
