Homa, the world’s leading mobile game publisher, is pleased to announce the appointment of Henry Lowenfels as its new President and Chief Business Officer (CBO).

With extensive experience in the mobile gaming industry and a strong track record, Henry will join Homa’s executive team contributing to the company’s growth and achievement of strategic plans.

Henry boasts extensive experience in the gaming industry, having held leadership roles in key companies such as Senior Vice President of Business Development at Scopely and Chief Product Officer at OneTeam Partners. He joined Scopely in its early stages in 2012 and made his way to the executive team playing a vital role in the company’s development, culminating in its $4.9 billion acquisition by Savvy Games Group in 2023. Over his eight-year tenure at Scopely, Henry’s contribution was instrumental in reshaping the company’s publishing approach and securing significant licensing deals for popular IPs like Monopoly Go!, Star Trek™ Fleet Command, Walking Dead: Road to Survival, and WWE Champions. He also led the Corporate Development team through important M&A deals including the acquisition of Digit Games and FoxNet, and fostered Scopely’s strong developer ecosystem, partnering with studios across four continents. These include renowned names like IUGO, Boss Fight, Mediatonic, and Aquiris, thereby solidifying the company’s industry presence. Furthermore, during his time at OneTeam Partners, he was responsible for overseeing video game and web3 product strategy and business development of the company, growing the business from a $300 million valuation when he joined to a $1.9 billion exit just over two years later.

Leveraging his strong background in business development and publishing, Lowenfels will support Homa in enhancing organizational performance and growth through strategic partnerships. His contributions will help drive the company’s vision and strengthen its positioning as a leading player in the mobile gaming industry, with a focus on innovation and emerging genres such as hybridcasual, a field in which the company has already taken significant steps. Homa recently doubled down its hybridcasual division and is strengthening its cutting-edge tech platform “Homa Lab” for empowered hybridcasual publishing.

“We are delighted to welcome Henry to our team” stated Daniel Nathan, Founder & CEO at Homa. “We’re confident that his extensive experience in the entertainment industry and his business development approach will have an important positive impact on the growth of the company. We look forward to working closely with him to push the boundaries of mobile gaming and continue empowering game creators and ourselves to create chart-topping games”.

Lowenfels has also expressed his excitement to join Homa and contribute to its continued success. “Homa is a pioneering force in the mobile gaming industry, and I am honored to become part of this growing, disruptive and ambitious team,” said Henry. “The company is undergoing an amazing expansion stage right now and I’m excited to contribute to it and further position Homa as a leader in the gaming space.”

With Lowenfels’ appointment, Homa continues its commitment to hiring top talent to drive growth, innovation, and disruption in the mobile gaming industry.

SOFTSWISS wins the CGS Recife Awards 2025 for its flagship Game Aggregator, confirming its industry leadership as the largest content hub in iGaming, operating with 99.999% uptime across 24 regulated jurisdictions. Recognition in Latin America, where SOFTSWISS has achieved full product certification, further proves the product’s global dominance and commitment to delivering trusted solutions across key regulated markets.

The award recognises the best game aggregation platform in the Latin American iGaming market, celebrating leadership, innovation, and operational excellence. This recognition is especially important as it comes from Brazil, where all SOFTSWISS products have recently been certified, led by the Game Aggregator. It is the 7th international award for the Game Aggregator, highlighting the product’s dedication to delivering unmatched scale and stability.

The Game Aggregator is recognised as the industry leader because of measurable advantages that no other platform can match. Operating in 24 jurisdictions, the solution provides direct access to 35,000+ active playing games from 300+ providers with new releases appearing immediately in operators’ portfolios enabled by streamlined integrations.

Engagement features deliver proven growth. Its Tournament Tool increases average daily bets by 22% across the player base.

Jackpot Aggregator campaigns on the Game Aggregator drive a 50% increase in turnover per user, making engagement mechanics a direct source of revenue.

The platform’s infrastructure is designed for continuous, fail-safe operation. Uptime reaches 99.999–100%, guaranteed by strict SLAs and backed with proactive system notifications. The system processes 7,000 requests and up to 100,000 database queries per second, with 99% of responses returned in under 100 milliseconds. This ensures operators never lose a session, a bet, or their players’ trust.

Beyond scale and engagement, the platform offers features that raise industry standards: AI-driven localisation for any market, deep analytics through the Ultimate Report Builder, and customisable game metadata for client-facing flexibility.

SBC Summit Tbilisi Conference Agenda Maps Path to Growth in Eastern Europe & Central Asia

This October, SBC Summit Tbilisi 2025 returns to Georgia with an enhanced conference agenda that connects the industry to the expertise and insights of local Eastern European and Central Asian leaders, helping delegates succeed in these markets.

Co-hosted with SMH Global, a Georgia-based company at the crossroads of sports, media, and iGaming, the summit will once again take place at the Sheraton Grand Tbilisi Metechi Palace on 15–16 October.

With over 50 speakers, the two-day agenda will cover local marketing, regulatory hurdles, and talent development, offering delegates the expertise needed to build stronger operations in Eastern Europe and Central Asia.

Commenting on this year’s conference agenda, Rasmus Sojmark, CEO and Founder of SBC, said: “We’ve worked closely with SMH and a group of local experts who really understand the region to shape this agenda. They know how to connect with Eastern European players, why crypto has taken off in gaming here, and how sports icons influence the way fans engage. It’s their stories and expertise that make the program in Tbilisi so valuable.”

Day One will dig into the realities of entering and growing in Eastern Europe and Central Asia. Panels will explore what it really takes to win over players from a marketing perspective, while others will examine how operators can navigate multi-jurisdictional compliance, balancing taxation, GDPR, and responsible gambling rules without losing efficiency.

Beyond regulation, discussions will look at how traditional casinos are reinventing themselves, from integrating digital products to keeping pace with changing player expectations. The day will conclude with a candid discussion on the rise of cryptocurrency in iGaming, asking whether it is truly a game-changer for payments and trust or a risk that requires careful management.

Day Two will turn the spotlight to sports and player engagement. Panels will unpack how athletes and sports icons influence fan communities, shape responsible play, and build brand trust, with case studies of successful collaborations between gaming brands and top stars. Discussions will then move into the rise of esports and fantasy sports, asking whether these interactive formats are the key to winning over younger, more skill-driven audiences.

Experts will also dig into gamification, from leaderboards and missions to loyalty programmes, and debate which mechanics truly keep players engaged long term. Later in the day, attention will shift to the region’s growing reputation as a talent hub, with speakers sharing how companies are recruiting and retaining top tech and product talent from Georgia, Armenia, Ukraine, and beyond. The program will close on the power of sport itself, exploring how major events like the World Cup and Olympics fuel massive betting activity, and how sponsorships are reshaping the global sports economy.

Looking ahead to this year’s summit, Sojmark added: “For me, the real value of this agenda is its practicality. Delegates will leave with ideas they can put into practice across Eastern Europe and Central Asia. Just as importantly, it’s about looking ahead, thinking about the region’s future role in the industry and how businesses can start preparing for it today.”
