GamingTech CEE, the “rebranded” Central and Eastern European Gaming Conference and Awards (CEEGC) organized by the HIPTHER Agency, a summit with a 7-year tradition of being the flagship conference of the online gaming industry in the Eastern and Central European region, throughout the fall, especially September 26 and 27. However, for this particular year, Evoplay, a rapidly-growing online gambling game development studio based in Ukraine, has been chosen to be the “Main Stage Sponsor” of this unique event.

Compatible values

As the company is one of the flagship iGaming suppliers committed to creativity, aiming to overcome the familiar and long-used approach to game production and transform the world view of gambling products, its values and future orientation are fully compatible with the out-of-the-box spirit of the upcoming summit and HIPTHER.

Full interview

For this special occasion, European Gaming spoke with the Head of Sales at Evoplay, Ihor Zarechnyi, about the news, the firm’s achievements so far and the huge importance of Eastern and Central Europe for the firm.

Regarding the interview, Ihor noted that the company is rapidly developing force that brings new things and views to the industry and that its team works as one, because in a very short time it managed to create more than 200 slots. In addition to innovative slots, it also creates new technology like the Spinential system. Additionally, when asked about the firm’s decision to rebrand in 2021, he said that they were very lucky because their main focus is online gaming, and with the pandemic, the number of iGaming players has only increased, which further caused the need for firm to clearly define its goals, strategy and values, hence the rebranding process.

Furthermore, being a relatively young company, it is more included in the crypto iGaming business, meaning it partners with various crypto-based platforms, which further means it signs a content distribution agreement with them and they offer its games via their platforms which further increases Evoplay’s revenue. As for other partnerships, those with SoftGamings, Relax and EveryMatrix, were especially important to Ihor, because they enabled Evoplay to introduce itself to a wider audience.

What’s more, when it comes to Evoplay’s rapidly growing library of games, the most exciting for Ihor is Star Guardians, which he says is an amazing true-to-life adventure equipped with one-of-a-kind RPG-inspired gameplay.

However, the main conclusion of this interview is that the firm is very open because it works with crypto-platforms as mentioned above and uses modern, high-value technology like fintech, blockchain and web3 to open new opportunities in the world of gambling to satisfy the players, which is just an extra proof that HIPTHER Agency made the right choice by choosing this particular company for such an important role at the upcoming summit.

Formula 1 Heineken Dutch Grand Prix announced that Jacks.nl, a Dutch gambling company, will serve as one of its principal sponsors. From 2024 onwards, the operator will join the list of the Dutch Grand Prix’s partners, which includes major companies such as Pon, Heineken, Radio 538 and Jumbo.

Formula 1 Heineken Dutch Grand Prix’s sporting director, Jan Lammers, praised Jacks.nl as a company “with passion for motorsport.” He said that the two parties share the same values, which is why Jacks.nl is a welcome addition to the Dutch Grand Prix family.

Lammers said that the partnership is set to “add a new dimension” to the experience during the week at Zandvoort.

Jacks.nl representatives also shared their thoughts on the tie-up with Eric Olders, the operator’s board chairman, highlighting his team’s commitment to the racing and sports sectors. According to him, the new partnership suits his company perfectly.

Olders promised that Jacks.nl will work besides the Formula 1 Heineken Dutch Grand Prix to promote the operator’s services in a safe and responsible fashion.

The fantastic combination of the excitement and entertainment at the Dutch Grand Prix is what you see reflected in the gaming experience that we also offer with our services. And then obviously just like in Formula 1 with the right measuring instruments and safety measures to be able to experience that excitement in a controlled way.

Eric Olders, chairman, Jacks.nl

Motorsport is in JVH’s Capillaries

Norbert Kout, chief marketing officer at JVH gaming & entertainment, Jacks.nl’s parent company, also commented on the matter. He noted that the group has been active in the motorsport sector for years.

Kout pointed to JACK’s Racing Day on the circuit in Assen as one of the events sponsored by the company, as well as to the media partnership with Ziggo Race Café, which is broadcast around all Grand Prix events. Finally, he noted that his team also sponsors Porsche Carrera Cup Benelux. The CMO concluded that the aforementioned deals highlight JVH’s commitment to motorsports.

Kout concluded: “So car and motorsport is in our capillaries. The big step to the Dutch Grand Prix is actually a logical continuation of what we already do in racing.”

The world’s biggest online poker room, GGPoker, announced the launch of a series of online poker tournaments providing pathways for players to participate in live poker events in London.

The Road to London series of satellites launched by GGPoker will offer participants a chance to win seats for two iconic live poker tournaments, the £3,300 WSOP Super Circuit Series London Main Event and the £21,200 Triton Super High Roller GGMillion$ Live, as well as the thrill of live poker action.

Commenting on the series launch, GGPoker’s head of marketing, UK & Ireland, Angela Martin, was thrilled to announce the return of live poker events to London, adamant that Road to London would be “an unrivaled opportunity to participate in world-class tournaments and compete alongside the poker elite.”

We’re confident that GGPoker players will relish the chance to win their way into these incredible live events at a fraction of the cost, making poker dreams come true.

Promising an electrifying experience for poker players, as well as the thrill of competitive live poker action on an international stage, the Road to London series will reward at least 200 players with seats to the WSOP Super Circuit London Main Event.

One More Hurdle to Overcome

Players who have earned their seats through the satellites will be free to participate in either an OnLive Day 1 tournament hosted at GGPoker or in one of three live Day 1s in London. The first OnLive Day 1 tournament is set to take place on July 2 and step qualifiers are already underway.

Scheduled to start on August 8, the £3,300 WSOP Super Circuit Series London Main Event will have a huge guaranteed prize pool of £3,000,000 ($3,840,000), besides the thrill of playing competitive poker with fellow players from around the world, including recent GGPoker partner, Brian ‘True Geordie’ Davis.

Commencing on July 27, the £21,200 Triton Super High Roller GGMillion$ Live will welcome some of the most popular poker players worldwide, promising to make it a truly exhilarating affair. Qualifier satellites for the tournament will run from June 24.

Both the £3,300 WSOP Super Circuit Series London Main Event and the £21,200 Triton Super High Roller GGMillion$ Live will take place at JW Marriott Grosvenor House in the heart of the capital.

GGPoker was at the center of a controversy recently after most of the high stakes players decided to boycott the games in protest of the latest changes to the poker room’s rake system.
