Srdan brings 20 years’ development experience, including seven years with William Hill and four years with Huddle; he will be a key part of The Unit’s expansion drive as VP, Engineering

The Unit, a leader in product design and development for sports betting and iGaming, has made another stellar addition to its management team with the appointment of Srdan Srepfler as Vice President, Engineering.

Not only has Srdan been in development roles for more than two decades, he also comes with an extensive background in iGaming; the bulk of which coming with industry behemoth William Hill, where he worked for more than seven years.

In his time at William Hill, Srdan’s roles included Software Developer, Senior Software Engineer, Development Team Lead and Global Platform Backend Lead. After leaving William Hill, Srdan joined operator MoPlay as VP of Automation Engineering and QA, before serving as Architect and Developer for AsianLogic, owner of betting brand Dafabet.

Srdan’s most recent position was VP of Engineering for software provider Huddle. In his four years with the company, he established the engineering department, applied agile delivery methods, designed a robust data pipeline and executed integration with the likes of Genius Sports, Sportradar, TXODDS and LSports.

Srdan will utilise his experience as The Unit continues to deliver major technology stacks across web, mobile and cross-functional platforms. The Unit designs, develops and delivers premium custom applications from interactive widgets to frontends and complicated backends, and Srdan will continue to ensure these high standards are delivered, while overseeing the next stage of the company’s development.

The Unit has made a number of notable appointments in recent months as part of a significant period of expansion for the company, with Alan Bruce joining earlier this year as Sales and Account Director, followed by Aoife Dillon as Senior Account Manager and Andy Clerkson as Chairman.

Paddy Casey, Co-founder at The Unit, said: “I would personally like to welcome Srdan to the team here at The Unit; I am very excited about the wealth of experience he can bring to the table.

“At The Unit, we have established a reputation for designing and developing robust, scalable platforms, and the addition of Srdan to the team will allow us to do that, while producing products of an even stronger quality.

“Our experienced developers, designers and technical professionals strive to ensure we can support project development and delivery, and we feel Srdan is perfectly positioned to lead our efforts in doing that.

“With our recent expansion into new territories, a brand refresh and some high-profile names like Srdan joining the team, we are well placed to build on our past success and continue to make our mark on the industry.”

Srdan Srepfler added: “It is a pleasure for me to join the team at The Unit. This is a fast-growing and exciting business, and it’s the perfect time for me to take my next step in the iGaming industry.

“I am thrilled to become a part of The Unit’s ambitious plans for growth in the coming years, and I look forward to starting on some of the upcoming projects as part of the company’s next stage of growth.

“I have spent many years developing bespoke backends with emphasis on scalability, resilience and business flexibility. This is something I am keen to continue at The Unit, and I am very pleased to be given this opportunity. I can’t wait to get started with an experienced team of fellow professionals and to help steer the next stage of The Unit’s journey.”

As summer reaches its peak, so do the opportunities for operators partnering with Spinmatic. The premium Slot developer has launched two new exclusive offers as part of its ongoing Rock the Month campaign – a high-impact promotional series featuring targeted incentives, exclusive discounts and seasonal themes designed to support long-term operator growth.

After a strong debut in July with Fruit Fiesta and Summer Splash, Rock the Month has quickly become a key initiative for many partners, offering unique commercial advantages each month, exclusively to Spinmatic clients.

For August, the provider turns up the heat with two new offers: Summer Crash and Freespin Hype. Both are available to apply for until July 25 and designed to help operators during the summer’s most critical weeks.

This August’s promotions offer Spinmatic’s partners the chance to unlock up to 60% off in Revenue Share, depending on the offer selected. Full activation details – including game selection and placement requirements – are reserved exclusively for Spinmatic’s operator network.

“Our goal with Rock the Month is to bring consistent value to our partners,” said Norbert Mathies, Managing Director at Spinmatic. “We know operators are constantly under pressure to keep players engaged, so with our monthly promotions, we aim to offer something that’s genuinely useful. With two offers available each month, operators can choose the one that best fits their market. At the same time, we’re helping them get more out of their campaigns and explore new games with reduced risk.”

Spinmatic encourages operators and industry stakeholders to stay tuned, as new Rock the Month promotions will continue to be rolled out monthly. For those looking for innovative ways to increase player loyalty and revenue, now is the perfect time to get involved.

Apollo announced the completion of the previously announced acquisitions of International Game Technology PLC’s (doing business as Brightstar Lottery) Gaming & Digital Business and Everi Holdings Inc. (Everi) by a holding company owned by funds managed by Apollo affiliates (the Apollo Funds). The all-cash transaction, valued at approximately $6.3 billion, brings together complementary businesses to form a privately held global leader in gaming, digital and financial technology solutions.

The two companies will be integrated into a combined enterprise in the coming months. Headquartered in Las Vegas, the combined enterprise will operate under the IGT name, while retaining the Everi brand in select markets and product lines. IGT will be organized into three business units: Gaming, Digital, and FinTech, creating a customer-first enterprise supported by a people-first culture that values talent, collaboration, and innovation.

“This is a defining moment for our industry. By uniting two leading organizations, we are building an enterprise with the scale, talent and technology to lead the future of gaming. With Apollo’s support, we are very well-positioned to deliver exceptional content across land-based and digital experiences, along with integrated financial solutions and casino management that enhance the player journey and drive value for our customers. I’m honored to be part of this exciting chapter and to help shape the future of IGT,” said Nick Khin, Interim CEO of IGT.

As previously announced, Hector Fernandez is expected to assume the role of CEO of IGT in the fourth quarter of 2025, following the expiration of a customary non-compete period. Until then, Mr. Khin will lead the organization and transition into the role of CEO of IGT’s Gaming business unit upon Mr. Fernandez’s arrival.

“Bringing together highly complementary businesses creates a more competitive, agile and well-capitalized platform built for long-term growth. We are confident that IGT is well positioned to deliver differentiated content and capabilities that better serve customers across the globe. We look forward to working closely with Hector, Nick and the rest of the talented IGT team to lead the industry forward,” said Daniel Cohen, Partner at Apollo.
