-Latin America will be able to see the most exclusive, entertaining and happy

seconds of the 47th edition of the CONMEBOL Copa América 2021 thanks to the

partnership between CONMEBOL and Kwai.

-Kwai, with an investment of US $10 million, launches its Sports Creators

Program, through which it will support and promote sports content creators in

the region, under a model that allows for monetization.

-@CONMEBOLCopaAmérica and @CopaAméricaBR will be the official channel for

exclusive content of the CONMEBOL Copa América. Likewise, through @KwaiFutbol

and @KwaiEmCampo, differential content of the tournament will be transmitted.

Less than a month away from the kick-off of the oldest soccer tournament in the

world, CONMEBOL Copa América 2021 and Kwai come together to announce the

application as "the official social network of the CONMEBOL Copa América 2021".

With this partnership, thousands of users and soccer fans will be able to enjoy

unique content in the most interactive and dynamic application available to

content creators.

Inspired by the passion that football arouses, during the three weeks of the

competition, Kwai will organize numerous in-app events, so that all users of

the platform will be able to participate in 15 # DesafíosCopa, in which

numerous activities with celebrities will be held. Also, some of the challenges

will be via livestreaming and all users will be able to earn money and

incentives for participating and being active in the referral program.

"We are very proud to partner with CONMEBOL in the framework of the development

of this important competition. This sponsorship occurs at a key moment for the

brand in the region, and we will soon begin to promote a specialized program to

develop and promote sports content creators in Latin America. From now on, we

can all be the lens of the other side of the games and go beyond the 90

minutes, which is inspiring and mind-blowing. We want to highlight the passion

and vibrant spirit of Latin American soccer", said Kai Shao, General Manager of

Kwai Latin America.

This partnership seeks to revolutionize the way of experiencing the celebration

of football from a distance. Thus, all users and football fans will be able to

exploit their creativity, share their passion and their shouts to the rhythm of

the singing of a goal.

Official accounts from KWAI for the CONMEBOL Copa América 2021

All Kwai users will be able to access the official account

@CONMEBOLlCopaAmerica and @CopaAméricaBR where exclusive and unique content

from the organizer will be generated, to see each play of the event from

another perspective. There the official music of the tournament will be shared,

what the official ball will be like, a start countdown will be carried out, the

opening ceremony, behind the scenes from the dressing rooms, press conferences,

fan celebrations, daily news, live streamings (as part of the new functionality

of the application), among others. Added to this, is the creation of the

@KwaiFutbol and @KwaiEmCampo account, in which complementary content about this

sport and the region's celebration of soccer will be generated.

Throughout the CONMEBOL Copa América 2021, soccer fans, regardless of the

country where they are, will be able to witness the moments off the field of

the National Teams, in order to enjoy the most emotional seconds of the

tournament with their favorite players.

"It is the first time that CONMEBOL will celebrate an association of this scope

through a digital entertainment platform. We are very excited and expectant for

the possibility of reaching millions of Latin American users through Kwai and

that they also reach us with content never seen before", expressed Juan Emilio

Roa, Commercial and Marketing Director of CONMEBOL. "We know that football is

not only experienced on the field, but also on social networks, especially in

this time of sanitary restrictions. That is why we will be working on exclusive

content in Kwai so that fans can enjoy every moment of the tournament, as if

they were there".

that offers specialized workshops for the creation of content, as well as

guidance and support from a team of experts in the field. As an important

incentive, creators will be able to monetize their content.

to professionalize their productions, so within the framework of the CONMEBOL

Copa América 2021 we will launch an incentive and training program for creators

in the field of sports content", said Arturo Martínez, General Manager for Kwai
