Last week, iGaming casino platform provider and aggregator Groove’s Georgia-based team attended the inaugural SBC Summit Tbilisi, a conference and exhibition with a focus on Georgia and the wider region.

Held in collaboration with the Georgia-based iGaming and sports management organization, SMH, the SBC Summit Tbilisi was an opportunity for Groove’s Georgia team to showcase the company’s new data-driven B2B Recommender, which helps operators sift content and match it most effectively to markets.

Speaking on behalf of the Georgia team, Groove’s Mariam Aleksidze, Account Manager for Vendors and Marketing Manager said: “SBC Summit Tbilisi was a very good opportunity for us to expand our network and make new contacts. I am following up with five operators post-show who were not on our radar before we attended the event.”

Aleksidze continued: “The format for the week was a delicious mixture of business and entertainment; we spent a lot of time in the exhibition and we also were able to participate in parts of the conference; the lunches and parties were a perfect blend of activities to build social rapport and to communicate our professional credentials. As an aggregator, we found the SBC Summit Tbilisi event ideal for new business and for talking about our new branding.”

Groove’s new website has been built as part of the refresh process, and the burgeoning game portfolio available with a single-API integration currently comprises over 15,000 games, with more than 100 new games being added each month from a roster of more than 100 top content partners.

Groove collaborates with tier-1 operators and beyond to deliver high performance and sustainable revenue around slots, online casino and live casino, poker and table games, as well as crash games.

Yahale Meltzer, COO and co-founder at Groove, said: “SBC Summit Tbilisi was a milestone for our Georgia team and allowed us to have maximum participation in an inaugural event which helps put the region properly on the map. We expect to expand our operator cluster in Georgia on the back of this first outing there and we were delighted to be able to take our brand, promote responsible gambling and showcase our new technologies in the Summit.”

eCOGRA, a leading international authority in Testing, Inspection and Certification services for the iGaming industry, has secured new regulatory approvals across three key jurisdictions: Arizona, Indiana and Panama. With these developments, eCOGRA strengthens its position in the U.S. and Latin American markets, offering excellence in compliance through their Quality, Speed, and Service promise.

This strategic expansion allows eCOGRA to conduct independent compliance audits and certification services in each region, addressing the growing demand for rigorous regulatory oversight in the fast-evolving global iGaming industry.

Securing approval in Arizona, where eCOGRA has now been licensed as an Event Wagering Ancillary Supplier, enables the International Testing Laboratory (ITL) to audit event wagering licensees in line with Arizona’s expanding regulatory landscape. Indiana, which introduced online sports betting in September 2019, has authorised eCOGRA to perform regulatory compliance audits, providing licensed operators with crucial assurance in meeting the state’s high standards.

In Panama, the Board of Gaming Control officially recognised eCOGRA as an Authorised Entity for Compliance Certification, specifically for slot machines and gaming software. This endorsement reinforces eCOGRA’s role as a trusted partner for operators seeking to meet stringent regulatory requirements in Latin America’s emerging iGaming sector.

In a move towards modernising India’s lottery sector, the state of Goa has introduced an entirely online lottery platform, sanctioned by the Directorate of Small Savings and Lotteries. This initiative, known as Great Goa Games, aims to bring transparency and convenience to an industry that has long grappled with allegations of mismanagement and fraud.

Ticket sales commenced Monday, with the inaugural draw set for Sunday. Rhiti Group, led by founder Arun Pandey, was granted the license to operate and market the platform. “Our mission is to democratize opportunities through technology,” Pandey stated, emphasizing the secure and user-friendly nature of the app-based system.

Goa government official Narayan Gad lauded the move as a step forward for the Indian lottery sector. “With our online lottery streamlining processes through technology, we are setting a new standard in the lottery industry,” Gad remarked. “The technology-based product will enhance transparency and ensure improved monitoring and regulation of operations.”

This development follows new rules governing online lotteries, introduced by the Goa directorate in February 2023. Currently, 13 states in India, including Goa, allow lottery games, though others have banned them due to concerns over gambling addiction and operational irregularities.
