Flamengo president hails historic achievement and makes a promise | OneFootball

For the first time, the Deliberative Council's vote took place virtually

A campaign promise by Luiz Eduardo Baptista at the end of last year, the virtual voting of Flamengo's Deliberative Council happened for the first time this Wednesday (30). Participants were called to approve the Hapvida sponsorship, which will feature the brand on the Mengão jersey starting this Thursday (31), against Atlético-MG, at Maracanã.

CAN COUNCILORS STILL VOTE AT GÁVEA?

Until last year, the votes took place 100% in person, at Gávea. However, with the virtual novelty, councilors can still go to the club's headquarters. This Wednesday (30), 192 rubro-negros were at Flamengo's house, and another 392 participated remotely.

The event, considered a “significant advancement in the modernization and expansion of democratic participation” by Flamengo, features two-factor authentication and information encryption. “We are very concerned with security and confidentiality throughout the process and have reached a robust solution that allowed councilors to participate from anywhere,” explained Frederico Argolo, a member of the club's Provisional Information Technology Committee.

WHAT WAS THE RESULT OF THE VOTE?

Flamengo's councilors approved the Hapvida sponsorship on the club's jersey, after all. Thus, the company will pay more than R$ 70 million in the contract valid for three years. Therefore, the logo will be on the upper back of the professional and Under-20 men's game, training, and warm-up uniforms. Finally, the brand will also be present on backdrops, field boards at the training center, the official bus, and other visibility assets.
