BetConstruct AI and PopOK Gaming have sponsored Botswana\u2019s annual TT Cup Challenge, while parent company Soft Construct has secured official registration as a gaming technology provider in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Press release.-\u00a0BetConstruct AI<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0PopOK Gaming\u00a0<\/strong>recently marked a major milestone in their African market expansion by participating as official sponsors of the annual\u00a0TT Cup Challenge<\/strong>\u00a0(also known as the\u00a0TT Jet Challenge Cup<\/strong>) in Motokwe, Botswana.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The high-profile community event brought together over 3,500 horse racing enthusiasts from across the region. Alongside traditional local sponsors, including the Gambling Authority Botswana<\/strong> and the Ministry of Sport and Arts<\/strong>, both brands contributed to elevating the scale and atmosphere of this major sporting tradition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond the racetrack, the event served as a critical platform for strategic industry alignment. Executive representatives from BetConstruct AI<\/strong> and PopOK Gaming<\/strong> were honoured to meet with key regulatory figures, including Mr. Kemorwale<\/strong>, CEO of the Gambling Authority Botswana<\/strong>, and the Hon. Minister of Sport and Arts, Jacob Kelebeng<\/strong>. These productive meetings opened the door to valuable conversations about the future of the gaming ecosystem, digital innovation, and long-term collaboration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Capitalising on this strong momentum and regulatory alignment, Soft Construct has officially been approved by the Gambling Authority Botswana as a registered Provider of Gaming Technology and Software Solutions in Botswana.<\/strong> This official registration grants the group full compliance to deliver its advanced operational frameworks under the Gambling Act 2012<\/strong>, and its Regulations and other applicable laws of Botswana.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Showing continuous support for the local community and regulatory authorities allows us to deliver a tailored, secure, and world-class gaming experience as we solidify our presence in Botswana.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both brands extend their gratitude to the event organisers, regulatory partners, and the vibrant local community for making this exceptional celebration of sport and collaboration possible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
