In Focus: Sportingtech


What is your main service?

Sportingtech is an iGaming software specialist, focused on developing scalable sports betting and iGaming solutions for all kinds of business worldwide. Recently, we have placed a greater emphasis on working within regulated markets, with our products being certified for use in key gaming regions, such as Europe, LatAm and North America.

2021 has proven to be an important year in Sportingtech’s proud history, with the release of our re-purposed Quantum platform breathing new life into our product offering. The updated platform benefits from new technology we have developed, with a key focus on providing scalability and reliability for our partners. With a host of new features, the new-look Quantum has been designed to provide operators within regulated markets with a world-class sportsbook and iGaming platform.

 

Who is/are your key personnel?

As CEO, I’m responsible for the overall direction and growth of Sportingtech. For more than 20 years, I’ve been involved in creating turnkey betting solutions for operators, as well as offering consultancy and advisory services. My legal background has been vital over the years in helping operators launch into newly legalised territories and advise regulators.

In recent months we have added several key individuals to our senior team. Elisa Libanora joined as our new Chief Financial Officer, and has extensive experience after holding senior positions across the accounting departments at several major iGaming companies. Jhuana Lamas also arrived as Business Development for Brazil, in a move which strengthens our commercial expansion efforts within the country. We also welcomed Catarina Veras as our new HR manager, and she has a great track record of helping organisations achieve business growth by recruiting and retaining the most talented people. Last but not least, Jordi Viles joined the team and his experience in regulated markets and certification is vital in our ambition to enter more legalised jurisdictions over the coming months.

 

What makes you stand out?

The Quantum platform is our flagship product and what makes Sportingtech so appealing to operators across regulated markets. Its scalability and robustness reassures businesses that they have the right platform to achieve strong business growth. Through Quantum, we offer 35,000live events per month that are proven to increase revenue generation and customer satisfaction. The turnkey sports betting and casino platform boasts more than 65 sports with over 1,000 betting markets, as well as a casino experience offering 9,000 games from hundreds of the industry’s leading studios.

Another aspect of Quantum that makes it stand out from the crowd is the way it can be customised to meet the individual requirements of each organisation. The solution is flexible and modular, providing the capability to manage and integrate any features that suit specific market and business needs. Our existing operator customers place huge value on the ability to take full control of their operations and configure the sportsbook to create a player-centric betting experience.

 

What’s your strategic outlook for 2022?

The previous 12 months has very much been focused on “the comeback” of Sportingtech, with our re-purposed Quantum taking our overall offering to the next level that can deliver growth for operators. As we look ahead to 2022, we are embarking on a new era. We are ramping up our efforts to extend the presence of Sportingtech in regulated markets across the globe. We see huge opportunities to work alongside more operators in LatAm, especially as more regions embrace regulation. Canada is another interesting market we are exploring as provinces across the country introduce updated frameworks. Of course, consolidating our presence in existing markets is a key focus for us, too. Sportingtech enjoys a strong position in Spain and Portugal, as well as Mexico and Peru.

The return of in-person tradeshows is great for the industry and provides us with the perfect opportunity to showcase just how far Sportingtech has progressed in the previous 12 months. Next year, we envisage even more growth as operators of all sizes recognise our credentials, as a provider of scalable solutions in key regulated markets.
