After seven years working with the gaming industry, G&M News has reached 20,035 followers and celebrates its leadership consolidation on LinkedIn (in Latin America, Brazil, and Spain), placing it among the gaming media outlets with the most followers on that network worldwide.
G&M News is extremely grateful to every person and company that supports us, trusts in our work, and shares our daily commitment to promoting the gaming and betting industry in Latin America and around the world. It would be impossible to name each and every executive who has followed and supported us during this time, so a huge thank you to the gaming sector as a whole.
On LinkedIn, G&M News currently gains an average of 250 new followers per month and maintains a high engagement rate on its articles. On both its websites and LinkedIn, G&M News’ industry followers come not only from Latin America, but also from a wide range of regions, including readers from Europe, the United States, Canada, Asia, Africa, and Oceania, demonstrating its global positioning as a leading media outlet in the sector. Furthermore, G&M News’ LinkedIn audience is entirely organic, comprised of leading executives from segments such as betting and casinos, entertainment, IT services, software, marketing, and financial services, among others.
A LITTLE HISTORY
After its launch in July 2019, G&M News surprised the industry with its engaging content, including in-depth interviews, market reports, and eye-catching, original sections. G&M News shifted the paradigm of typical media coverage in the sector, focusing primarily on gaming operators and quickly gaining traction in Latin America, the Caribbean, the United States, and Europe.
Later, with the launch of its Portuguese website in 2021, the company became (at the time) the first and only media outlet in the industry worldwide to generate new content in Spanish, English, and Portuguese, covering not only Brazil but also Portugal. This was complemented by its Events division, which organized exclusive boutique gatherings featuring numerous operators and a select few suppliers in comfortable venues, fostering business, networking, and learning.
PEOPLE, COMMUNITIES, AND NETWORKS
Another innovative aspect was G&M News’ dedication to the people in the industry, seeking a more human approach to the business and highlighting minorities as protagonists in its articles. The company undertook several initiatives promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion in gaming.
At the same time, another key focus was its dedicated work on social media, with a strong presence on platforms such as LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and Twitter. G&M News was a pioneer in implementing content specifically designed for social networks.
QUALITY CONTENT TO ANTICIPATE THE FUTURE OF THE SECTOR
Looking back over these past seven years, G&M News has nothing but words of gratitude for the entire sector. Looking ahead and following the guidelines of its Second Five-Year Plan 2025-2029, the company will continue to seek new partners, clients, and friends who share its innovative vision, all in support of the sector’s collective progress.
Part of this work is focused on generating new ideas and sections, strengthening its academic training unit, G&M Learn, and continuing to coordinate unique boutique events, which have been very well received. The next meetings will be G&M Events Brazil 2026 (August 13th in São Paulo), G&M Events Argentina 2026 (September 16-17th in Rosario, Santa Fe), G&M Events Mexico 2026 (November 4-5th in Mexico City), and G&M Events Ecuador 2026 (November 26th in Quito).
Going forward, G&M News’ mission will remain the same: to act as a bridge connecting continents, companies, and people in the global gambling industry, producing top-quality content in three languages, seizing opportunities, overcoming new challenges, and upholding the values of responsible gaming, legality, sustainability, and inclusion.
