Aston Villa has agreed a multi-year partnership with BK8, which sees the brand join as the new Principal and Front of Shirt Partner.

The organisation, who have signed a three-year deal with the Club, will have branding featured on the front of Villa’s three shirts until the end of the 2025/26 season and have committed to giving back to charity with this latest announcement.

The club’s third kit, which will be unveiled later in the summer, will see BK8 make a contribution per adult third shirt sold, to a local charity in Birmingham. The move comes off the back of BK8’s previous work over the past two years, working with charities and programmes involving mental health awareness and this initiative is the first of what will be a number of collaborations with the Club.

Speaking about the rationale behind their charitable aims, BK8 EMEA Managing Director Michael Gatt said: “We are really delighted to be able to announce our support for local charities as part of our exciting new partnership with Aston Villa. Being able to give something back to the supporters for their dedication is a hugely significant part of the reason we want to be involved with a prestigious institution, which is what Aston Villa Football Club are.

“As a brand working in football for the last few years, we have committed to working closely with our partners’ local community initiatives and ensure we continue our commitment to delivering on our ambitions in this area.

“Over the next three years of this deal we will work tirelessly to make an impact in this area with a number of programmes across the region that engage with Villa supporters locally but also on a global scale.”

An Aston Villa spokesperson said: “Through this partnership with BK8 we look forward to exciting collaborations together that will help to grow both brands, particularly within Southeast Asia.”

The brand will also invest in several brand activations across the course of the partnership, which they believe will showcase their commitment to several local charitable initiatives in and around Birmingham. The deal also includes various advertising opportunities including advertising assets at Villa Park, which will be given to charity organisations to display promotional messages throughout the season.

Internet Vikings, a licensed in-state hosting provider for iGaming and online sports betting, announces the extension of its relationship with GAN Sports®, a supplier of industry-leading casino content, into Arkansas.

Following a successful multi-state collaboration initiated in 2022, Internet Vikings continues to support GAN by delivering hosting services tailored to their operational needs. Internet Vikings is continuing to grow across the United States, as Arkansas becomes the latest state to benefit from their hosting services.

GAN, a B2B supplier of internet gambling software-as-a-service solutions, initially entered into an agreement with Internet Vikings in a landmark deal covering 15 states. Since then, the relationship has grown stronger, with GAN relying on Internet Vikings’  bare metal server solutions to support their large-scale U.S. operations.

This expansion into Arkansas follows a recent deployment in Nevada, where Internet Vikings also provides hosting solutions to GAN. As GAN continues to operate across regulated U.S. markets, Internet Vikings remains a dependable resource, and has demonstrated its reliability to support long-term growth.

LiveRamp announced it is powering the industry’s first casino media network for Mohegan, a global leader in casino and entertainment destinations. For the first time, brands can access Mohegan’s rich first-party insights to reach guests and players in addition to the ability to measure campaigns across the casino’s digital channels and on-premise experiences, including in-app, loyalty programs, slot machines, kiosks, and more.

Ad spending on travel-focused commerce media is forecasted to reach $2.96 billion next year as hospitality, gaming, and entertainment companies unlock their unique behavioral insights for advertiser partners. Mohegan alone captures 200 million impressions per month across its casinos and digital estate, including exclusive insights on visitors’ entertainment, dining, and vacation preferences. This unique set of data allows advertisers to immediately discover and activate highly engaged audiences while deepening customer understanding in ways previously not possible.

With the largest and most powerful data collaboration network, LiveRamp was the clear choice to power seamless connectivity and measurement, help us deepen our premier partnerships, and protect customers’ data,” said Rich Roberts, President of Mohegan Digital.

LiveRamp’s data collaboration technology allows Mohegan to unify its data across sources and deliver an accurate, connected customer view to advertisers across its online and offline channels, maximizing the value of every customer interaction. LiveRamp also supports closed-loop measurement of media network campaigns, which brings the customer journey to life, giving advertisers deeper understanding of customer actions from ad exposure, to on-property visits or online interactions to ensure advertiser ROI.
