KTO is pleased to announce a sponsorship agreement with the Brazilian football club, Associação Chapecoense de Futebol.
Commonly known as Chapecoense, the club hails from Chapecó city in Santa Catarina, Brazil.
With a legacy dating back to 1973, Chapecoense has a decorated history, winning the Campeonato Catarinense state championship six times. Currently playing in Série B—the second-highest division in the Brazilian league system—the club has also reached the top flight twice in 1978 and most recently in 2014.
Cássio Filter, Brazil Country Manager at KTO, praised the sponsorship, with special recognition of both the municipality and the residing club, commenting, “Chaepecó city is nationally recognised for being actively involved in various sports. Chapecoense symbolises the pinnacle of that culture, representing the region’s 118 cities to the rest of Brazil and the wider world.”
Chapecoense Club President, Alex Passos, positively welcomed the sponsorship, stating, “For Chapecoense, this new connection with KTO brings much joy, especially because of the company’s solidity and responsibility in their segment. Their benchmark status in the online gaming market makes them our preferred choice and we’re sure it will be a successful partnership, for both the club and our new sponsor. We are delighted and grateful to KTO for betting on our Chape”.
As part of a year-long deal, KTO will work closely with the club to enrich engagement with its passionate fanbase. The KTO logo will also be featured on the Chapecoense shirt and above the club badge.
