SKS365 launches PlanetGreen365 sustainability program: the company forest was born to celebrate the new green project
A thousand trees were planted in the world across Latin America, Africa and Asia to concretely contribute to the safeguarding of the environment and the development of local communities
A corporate forest of 1,000 trees to promote environmental sustainability and support rural communities in different parts of the globe is the first initiative that SKS365 – one of the leading gaming and betting operators in the Italian market – has launched as part of the PlanetGreen365 corporate sustainability program.
The new project is one of the milestones of the SKS365’s ESG agenda. The group has already launched in the past months – in its offices in Italy and Serbia – numerous activities for environmental protection to pave the way to the PlanetGreen365 program, which aims to promote a culture of sustainability through education and example for new generations. Furthermore, PlanetGreen365, also thanks to the collaboration with Treedom will contribute to achieving 10 out of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals outlined in the United Nations’ Agenda for 2030.
SKS365 has created its corporate forest, with 1,000 trees that will grow in seven countries around the world spread over three continents: Latin America, Asia and Africa. Each employee of the company has received a tree of their choice as a gift, which they can follow online, receiving updates on the project the tree is part of and its specific impact on the environment in terms of CO2 absorption. Moreover, a part of the 1,000 adopted trees – such as cocoa in Cameroon, avocado in Guatemala, and coffee in Nepal, to name a few – has been donated to the children, grandchildren, and other young acquaintances of the employees with the aim to involve future generations in a virtuous path of awareness, consciousness, and concrete actions for the environmental cause.
“We are extremely aware of the urgent need to address the issue of climate change and environmental sustainability”, said Brian Dean, Chief People Officer of SKS365.
“From heat waves to hurricanes, from droughts to floods and fires, extreme weather events are becoming increasingly frequent, putting human lives at risk and the future of our planet in jeopardy. Therefore, it is necessary to raise awareness and responsibility among all of us in the fight against climate change and to safeguard the environment: governments, businesses, communities, and even individuals, everyone must play his part. The synergy with Treedom represents a fantastic opportunity to give something back to the planet, both from an environmental and social point of view, through an action as simple and concrete as planting trees and making them grow. We have estimated that with this first step, our one thousand trees will manage to absorb approximately 280 tons of CO2 over the course of their first 10 years of life. This initiative will contribute to making the world more sustainable and, at the same time, will allow our employees to establish a deep connection with the land and our planet. And this is going beyond employees, embracing future generations by involving young people in taking care of the SKS365 forest. The energy and passion of the youngsters are the key to building a better future, and to do so, they need to acquire and develop the knowledge, values, and behaviors that can guide them to reduce environmental impact in daily life”.

- Acquisition of PickGuru creates a new division, Dizplai Gaming
- New division to strengthen Dizplai’s end-to-end offering with new level of services to Dizplai clients
Dizplai, a leading media experience company, trusted by global sports rights holders, brands, betting companies and broadcasters to transform passive audiences into engaged communities, has today announced the 100% acquisition of PickGuru, the most customer-centric, free to play, gaming platform on the market.
PickGuru provides smart solutions that drive audience and commercial objectives for today’s multi-channel bookmakers, publishers and rights holders. PickGuru’s solutions enable partners to quickly and easily create predictor and fantasy games for their platforms, and drive both deeper engagement and commercialisation opportunities.
The acquisition brings together two innovators in the fan engagement space, creating the new division, Dizplai Gaming. This division will expand Dizplai’s end-to-end offering and drive even greater experiences for fans across both first and second screens.
“We fundamentally believe that when audiences are compelled, through a gamified approach, to interact, it makes content more engaging, more commercially valuable, and enables it to grow and, ultimately, retain audiences,” said Ed Abis, CEO Dizplai. “The acquisition of Pickguru as a business, and the team of people who will join Dizplai, will enable us to supercharge that approach, offering a whole different level of services to our clients, thus driving our overarching strategy.”
Paul Watkins, PickGuru: “Dizplai and Pickguru have a collective vision, and this acquisition enables us to accelerate product developments that enables us to build on the Dizplai mantra of “Gamifying the Game”. Fans want to be part of the action and love predicting outcomes, collectively we can deliver on this. Watch this space!”
Paul Cobley, PickGuru: “The Pickguru platform was built on the principle of flexibility. We are committed to enabling our partners to quickly and easily create gamified experiences for their platforms that drive both deeper engagement and commercialisation opportunities. This is an extremely exciting time for us.”
Following the acquisition of PickGuru, Dizplai announced two new senior roles, in line with the growth of the business, with Paul Watkins as Chief Financial Officer and Paul Cobley as Director of Gaming.
Increasingly considered as the ultimate fan solution for live sports owners and creators, Dizplai fuses tech, creative and content experiences to create engaged communities for sports brands and organisations. Every day, millions of sports fans tune in to live broadcasts, which have been enhanced using the Dizplai platform, from companies as diverse as Sky Sports, TNT Sports, Manchester City, Liverpool FC, SuperTri, William Hill and The United Stand.
2024 has been a big year for Dizplai:
- Launched Dizplai Creative, a new creative agency focused on driving greater audience engagement and brand value through content innovation and technology
- Announced by Comcast as one of the ten startups chosen for the 2024 Comcast NBCUniversal SportsTech Accelerator program, powered by Boomtown.
- Winner of the Best Technology for Match Day Operations and Experience award at the 2024 Sports Technology Awards
