BLAST is teaming up with Copenhagen Gaming Week, with the esports entertainment company named as the official tournament partner for the Esports Arena ahead of the inaugural Copenhagen Gaming Week event in January 2024.

Copenhagen Gaming Week is Denmark’s new international festival encompassing everything related to gaming and esports. Visitors of all ages can explore the tech of the future, delve into the hottest trends of the present, and celebrate the retro-gaming classics of the past, all while fostering and expanding a unique community with others who share the same passion.

BLAST, has delivered a number of esports tournaments over the last few years across a variety of games including the global Counter-Strike tournament series BLAST Premier, and will bring a new Counter-Strike 2 tournament to Copenhagen Gaming Week’s esports arena. Notably, BLAST recently hosted the final major event in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive – the precursor to Counter-Strike 2 – the BLAST.tv Major in Paris, receiving global acclaim for the spectacle.

No other city in the world is hosting as many large-scale esports events as Copenhagen in 2023. Three of the world’s biggest game publishers in Ubisoft, Epic Games and Valve have been working with BLAST to bring three large-scale events to Copenhagen in the shape of the BLAST R6 Major (Rainbow Six Siege) in the Forum, the FNCS Global Championships (Fortnite) and the BLAST Premier Fall Final (Counter-Strike 2), both in Royal Arena.

Copenhagen Gaming Week’s Counter-Strike 2 tournament will capture BLAST’s expertise and technology to showcase a selection of pre-invited world-class teams alongside challengers sourced through an upcoming online pre-tournament, details of which will be released soon. This qualification phase will provide both local and regional teams the opportunity to vie for a chance to compete on the grand stage alongside established stars.

James Woollard, Head of Commercial for BLAST, said: “BLAST takes great pride in powering Copenhagen Gaming Week’s mission to establish an esports tournament providing more opportunities to the growing local scene in Denmark while offering fans next level entertainment. Together, we’re poised to deliver an unforgettable experience for fans and teams alike, by bringing our unique approach to fan-first production and adrenaline-fueled live events. We have been bringing tier one esports events to Copenhagen since 2017 and are delighted to be able to bring more CS2 to the world outside of our BLAST Premier ecosystem.”

Kevin Thyge Helsinghof, Commercial Director at Bellagroup, remarks: “We are thrilled to welcome BLAST on board as a partner at Copenhagen Gaming Week. It’s a pleasure to collaborate with such a strong ally, and we’re enthusiastic about delivering a Danish-rooted tournament that unites players, fans, and communities in Bella Arena, which is now taking the next step as an international esports hub.”

Copenhagen Gaming Week will take place at Bella Center Copenhagen and Bella Arena from January 12-14, 2024.

More details on the format, teams and qualification process for the CS2 tournament at Copenhagen Gaming Week will be shared in the near future.

Meridianbet, a member of the Golden Matrix Group (NASDAQ: GMGI), in partnership with Meridianbet Foundation, Expanse Studios, and BC Crvena zvezda Meridianbet announces the launch of a significant humanitarian initiative, ‘Scan. Help.’, aimed at supporting maternity hospitals across Southeast Europe.

The rollout of this action to other market territories is expected in the remainder of 2024.

How It Works

For every scanned QR code and subsequent registration on the Meridian Foundation’s website, funds will be allocated towards equipping five maternity hospitals in Serbia. This innovative approach not only raises awareness but also actively involves the community in our CSR activities.

The initiative is currently ongoing with high media presence and is broadcasted during Southeast Europe’s regional basketball Finals series (ABA League). BC Red Star players wear jerseys featuring the QR code, with additional promotion through basketball arena ads, TV ads, and more, encouraging fans and supporters to participate.

A Unified Effort for Community Impact

The ‘Scan. Help.’ campaign is a collaborative effort involving Meridianbet, Meridianbet foundation, Expanse Studios, and basketball club Crvena zvezda Meridianbet, Southeast Europe’s leading basketball club, of which Meridianbet is the name sponsor. The initiative is designed to leverage our collective resources and influence to make a meaningful impact on local communities.

Multi-Stakeholder Support and Growing Participation

The ‘Scan. Help.’ campaign has received institutional support ad backing from the Ministry of Health, reinforcing the importance and legitimacy of this cause. Additionally, several companies have already expressed their desire to contribute, with provisions made for donations through the Meridian Foundation’s account. This broadening support network amplifies the initiative’s reach and potential impact.

This campaign exemplifies Meridianbet’s dedication to sustainable development and community well-being. In 2023 alone, the company has launched 225 CSR campaigns, reflecting the commitment to making a lasting impact.
