Meridianbet Foundation Celebrates 5 Years Of Global Scholarship Support
For the fifth consecutive year, the Meridianbet Foundation, part of Golden Matrix Group (NASDAQ: GMGI), proudly continued its global scholarship initiative, providing long-term academic support and professional opportunity to students across the 17 markets where Meridianbet operates.
This milestone is more than a corporate anniversary—it reflects a sustained and evolving commitment to education as a strategic pillar of the Company’s ESG program.
As the digital economy reshapes skills and opportunities, Meridianbet continues investing in people.
Empowering Future Leaders Through More Than Financial Support
The Meridianbet Foundation Scholarship is designed to recognize potential, reward dedication, and prepare young people for a future that demands adaptability, creativity, and digital fluency. The program offers:
– Meaningful financial support to remove barriers to academic success
– Hands-on industry exposure to bridge the gap between classrooms and the job market
The educational program offers key insights:
Digital marketing & user acquisition
Game development and gamification
Artificial intelligence and predictive modeling
ESG reporting and regulatory alignment
Human resources and organizational development
Much more than mere one-time financial awards, these programs are structured pathways that help transform academic promise into sustainable, real-world success.
Meridianbet’s Truly Global Footprint
In 2024–2025, the scholarship program extended its reach across Europe, Africa, and Latin America, with awardees coming from cities as diverse as Belgrade, Bogotá, Lagos, Lima, and Nairobi. In each territory, the program is tailored to respond to local academic systems while offering globally relevant support.
By working in close partnership with local universities, technical schools, and community organizations, the Meridianbet Foundation ensures that the scholarship is not only relevant, but impactful.
Where Academic Talent Meets Civic Responsibility
Beyond academic excellence, Meridianbet supports students who demonstrate leadership in their communities. Scholarship recipients regularly participate in civic and sustainability-focused initiatives, including:
Urban greening and public space renewal
Plastic recycling campaigns
Support for local NGOs aiding children, the elderly, and persons with disabilities
Participation in campaigns like “Stop Violence Against Women” and inclusive sports programs
These engagements reinforce the Company’s view that education is not just a private benefit—it is a public responsibility. The program is aligned with UN SDG 4 (Quality Education) and SDG 17 (Partnerships for the Goals).
Meridianbet is also the member of the UN Global Compact initiative.
Closing the Gap Between Education and the Digital Economy
As a tech-enabled business, Meridianbet recognizes the widening gap between traditional education and the rapidly evolving demands of the digital-first economy. That’s why the scholarship goes beyond funding—it actively connects students with the Company’s internal teams, exposing them to live business environments, projects, and mentorship.
Whether in AI, marketing, compliance, or customer experience, students gain real insights into career paths in gaming, fintech, and digital infrastructure—fields expected to dominate global employment in the decades ahead.
A Scalable CSR Model Built on Real Impact
The scholarship program is one of the flagship initiatives within Meridianbet’s broader CSR and ESG framework. In 2024 alone, the Company delivered:
293 structured CSR actions
5,027 hours of employee-driven community engagement
18,004 direct and indirect beneficiaries
Dozens of education-focused initiatives, including tuition aid and school infrastructure donations
