Supplier Continent 8 Technologies is set to open a Curaçao data centre site next month.

The site expansion comes on the back of numerous initiatives set out by the Curaçao Gaming Control Board, including revising the licensing procedure for operators on the island.

Services include global connectivity, managed hosting and cybersecurity services and solutions.

Michael Tobin, Founder and CEO at Continent 8 Technologies, said: “We have been powering operators and suppliers in regulated jurisdictions for 25 years, providing compliant hosting solutions, globally. Thanks to our experience, regulatory knowledge and solutions, we have become the trusted infrastructure partner to the industry.

“Our move into Curaçao comes at a time when operators and suppliers need infrastructure solutions they can rely on, and this is exactly what we have built our name and reputation on.”

Nick Nally, CRO at Continent 8 Technologies, added: “We pride ourselves on our agility and ability to provide solutions to customers, quickly. We realised an opportunity and we had to move fast to ensure operators have the very best hosting solutions.

“With the changes being made in Curaçao with regards to online gambling licences, strengthening the application process to attract a wider range of operators, those looking to seek a licence can be assured that they can capitalise on leading services and solutions from Continent 8.”

Continent 8 has appeared on the GI Huddle twice, including interviews with Tobin himself and CPO Justin Cosnett.
