Okbet Sports Betting: Philippines Online Sports Betting 2023
A special booth clad in the OKBet brand’s colors was set up in the venue, where lucky fans got their hands on loads of freebies and exciting prizes, including OKBet shirts, lanyards, and the chance to meet-and-greet the players once the games had concluded.
Prior to the basketball action, the multi-industry company also donated hygiene kits to the city government of Bacolod, as part of its ongoing string of corporate social responsibility initiatives that took off just a week earlier in Muntinlupa. This was done during the press conference hosted by Bacolod City Mayor Albee Benitez that welcomed the MPBL delegates.
The rather early celebration, which may very well be the first of many, follows OKBet’s commitment to support and celebrate all things Filipino — this time, with our joyful nature, world-class creativity, and undeniably fun-loving culture put in the spotlight. Coupled with our proud fighting spirit, these culture-defining traits explain why our people love competitions and sporting events so much. OKBet wishes for us all to embrace such traits, as part of nation-building moving forward.
Over a month ago, this new name in the local gaming and sports entertainment industry unveiled an awe-inspiring mural in the world-famous Tenement Court in Taguig City. The massive artwork, done in collaboration with the Tenement Visual Artists, marked the company’s promise to further promote the basketball scene and the countless aspiring athletes in the country after sealing their partnership with MPBL.
MPBL league commissioner Kenneth Duremdes formally welcomed OKBet as this season’s title sponsor back in June 12 in a joint press conference held at the Grand Ballroom of the Okada Manila in Parañaque City. He noted that the two parties share a common goal in empowering home-grown talents for them to reach their full potential, especially in these trying times when we are still recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic.
By embracing and continuously celebrating the Filipino culture and identity, our people’s happiness and fulfilment can outshine those of the smiling masks in Bacolod. The early celebration can be all year long instead.
SPORTS betting gaming platform OKBet said it has been tapped as title sponsor for the fourth regular season of the country’s leading regional basketball league Maharlika Pilipinas Basketball League (MPBL).
As title sponsor, OKBet, which aims to promote aspiring Filipino athletes, will support the whole MPBL season. Also, out of the 22 teams from the different provinces that will compete in the MPBL’s fourth season, OKBet will sponsor three teams, namely, the Marikina Shoemasters, the GenSan Warriors, and Sarangani Marlins.
This is the first time OKBet will sponsor a major sports gaming event, aligned with its goal of supporting Filipino athletes, specifically in basketball.
“We are excited to be part of MPBL and experience the adrenaline of the basketball teams competing for this year’s regular season. We are glad to support several teams this year. As we support this MPBL regular season, OKBet is looking forward to a stronger and long-term partnership with the major sporting leagues in the country, especially on sponsoring more athletes. We want to be part of the success of our Filipino athletes in whatever sport, starting with basketball through MPBL,” says Robert Chen, OKBet Vice President – Marketing and Business Development.
Basketball was always known for being a nation-building sport in the Philippines. With its popularity in the country, OKBet eyes to enhance the gaming experience through its platform with this partnership. As OKBet strengthens its presence in the sports betting platform industry in the country, they also aim to reach out to every Filipino through their love for this popular sport, together with the MPBL.
“As a Filipino company, we embody the Filipino culture of Bayanihan. With that, we are glad that it is MPBL that we have chosen as a partner for basketball sports. We believe we have the same goal of not just providing entertainment through sport but also providing support to our kababayans. Through this partnership with MPBL, we believe that it can be a way of bridging small communities and being able to promote camaraderie among Filipinos. We are inspired by their motto, ‘Ang liga ng bawat Pilipino’ which is basically what we also stand by, ‘by Filipinos, for the Filipino people,’” Chen added.
OKBet is set to forge their official contract signing with the MPBL this June 2022. The event will be attended by respected executives from both brands, including OKBet VP Robert Chen, MPBL founder Senator Manny Pacquiao, and representatives from the three teams supported by OKBet. The venue of the contract signing is yet to be announced by both brands.
OKBet has a wide range of sporting events that include best-of-breed organic systems that cater to the needs of its clients, partners, and users.
