The eSports Integrity Commission, or ESIC, has started a partnership with eSports betting operator GG.bet in order to roll out new anti-corruption education regulations.
The deal will see GG.bet support the ESIC in developing an Anti-Corruption Tutorial, which will be designed to educate players and stakeholders on ethical behaviour in the eSports industry. Also, in development will be a Tier 1 Anti-Corruption Supporter, which GG.bet will handle. The ESIC said its purpose is to reinforce the operator’s commitment to creating a fair and secure environment for players and stakeholders.
“Over the past few years, GG.bet has invested a significant amount of effort into the development of esports,” GG.bet chief executive Dmytro Voshkarin said. “We have worked closely with teams and have seen the relevance of creating a safe and fair environment to ensure healthy competition in esports.
“We are pleased to be working with ESIC, a partner with whom we share a common passion for bringing integrity to esports, and we believe this tutorial will be helpful in achieving this goal.”
ESIC’s director of global strategy and partnerships, Stephen Hanna, added: “Partnerships like this one with GG.bet are critical to our mission of promoting integrity and preventing corruption in esports.
“We’re grateful for their support and look forward to working together over the next three years to create a stronger, safer esports industry for all.”
