HIPTHER, organiser of the Prague Gaming & TECH Summit 2025, is proud to present Relax Gaming, the Summit’s Delegates Bag Sponsor and a key player in the iGaming industry. In this exclusive interview, we speak with Cliona Griffin, Business Development Manager, Casino at Relax Gaming, to explore their approach to market expansion, transparent competitive strategies, and what to expect from their presence at the Summit.


Relax Gaming has built a strong reputation as a premium aggregator and supplier in the iGaming space. How does your approach to business development ensure that Relax Gaming stays ahead in an increasingly competitive market?

We’re always focused on being one of the industry’s most innovative providers, both in terms of the content we produce and the platform we offer. By constantly evolving our products and maintaining a strong commercial framework, we ensure that Relax Gaming remains a key player in the market.

Our competitive and fair commercial approach has been instrumental in strengthening our presence in existing markets while also enabling smooth entry into new ones. It’s all about staying agile and forward-thinking to ensure our partners get the best possible experience when working with us.


A competitive yet transparent commercial structure is a core focus for Relax Gaming. How do you strike the right balance between offering competitive deals while maintaining transparency with partners and operators?

I think both fairness and transparency are key to building long-term relationships with our partners. That’s why we apply the same commercial structure across the board in each market, ensuring that every partner has a clear and equal opportunity to succeed.

This approach not only makes our offering competitive, but it also gives our partners confidence in knowing they’re working with a provider that values consistency and openness. By keeping things straightforward and fair, we create a commercial environment that benefits operators.


With new markets constantly evolving, what key factors influence Relax Gaming’s decision-making when entering and expanding into emerging markets? Are there any specific regions that are currently on your radar?

When looking at new markets, we take a strategic and measured approach to ensure that any expansion aligns with our business objectives asl well as the needs of our partners.

One of the biggest factors we consider is regulatory complexity. Each market comes with its own set of rules, and we need to ensure that we can operate efficiently while fully complying with local requirements. Beyond compliance, we assess the potential return on investment, evaluating market size, player demand, and long-term sustainability to determine whether it’s the right fit for Relax Gaming and our network of operators.

Right now, we’re actively monitoring several European markets that show strong growth potential. However, our primary focus for H1 this year is expanding our presence in the US. The region presents exciting opportunities, and we’re working to establish a solid foothold by leveraging our expertise and proven content portfolio to meet the needs of operators and players in this market.


Given the dynamic nature of the industry, how does Relax Gaming adapt its offerings to support both new and existing operators in maximising their revenues?

We take a very hands-on approach when it comes to supporting our partners. Our Account Management team works closely with operators to help them maximise revenue by tailoring strategies to suit their needs. Whether it’s optimising game performance or identifying new opportunities, we’re always looking for ways to add value.

On the content side, we’re also moving towards a more bespoke approach, adapting our offering to fit the demands of different markets and player preferences. This flexibility allows us to continue delivering high-quality, relevant content that keeps engagement levels high.


As a speaker at the Prague Gaming & TECH Summit, what key insights will you be sharing with the audience? And what makes this event an essential platform for discussing the future of iGaming?

I’m looking forward to sharing how Relax Gaming approaches market expansion, focusing on how we assess new opportunities, navigate regulatory challenges, and use our aggregation model to drive growth.

I’ll also highlight the importance of localisation and how we tailor our content to different markets while supporting operators with the tools they need to maximise engagement. With the industry evolving rapidly, staying ahead of trends is key, and I’ll touch on the innovations shaping the future of iGaming.

Events like this are a great chance to connect, exchange ideas, and gain insights into what’s next for the industry, making it an essential platform for discussion and collaboration.

With Relax Gaming bringing its expertise to the Prague Gaming & TECH Summit 2025, this year’s event promises invaluable insights into the future of iGaming and technology. Don’t miss the opportunity to connect with industry leaders, gain exclusive market perspectives, and be part of the most dynamic gathering in the CEE region!

Lisbon, Portugal, 16-18 of September

This September 16-18, SBC Summit in Lisbon will host the official presentation of Communications Hub (CommsHub). The new all-in-one communication management platform helps businesses integrate messaging services 75% faster while ensuring uninterrupted delivery through built-in backup and cascading traffic.

Developed by industry veterans and now operating as a standalone brand in the RedCore business group, Communications Hub is set to change the way high-volume messaging is managed – not only in iGaming and affiliate marketing, but also in fintech, e-commerce and beyond.

A New Era of Smart Messaging

Communications Hub centralizes SMS, flash calls and alpha name registration into one streamlined interface. The platform provides businesses with access to an up-to-date list of verified service providers, flexible routing options and advanced analytics – all designed to reduce costs, save time and increase reliability.

One of the platform’s key innovations is its built-in failover and cascading traffic system, ensuring that no message is lost due to a provider outage or technical disruption.

“We built a Communications Hub to take the uncertainty out of messaging,” said Viktoriia Yefimenko, CEO, Communications Hub. “Our mission is simple: make integration fast, delivery reliable and management effortless.”

75% Faster Integration

The launch announcement comes with a headline figure: Communications Hub reduces the time needed to integrate new providers by 75% – from the industry standard of 35-45 days to just 10 days.

For fast-moving industries, this speed means more than convenience; it can mean seizing market opportunities before competitors do.

Meet the Team at SBC Lisbon

Visitors to SBC Lisbon 2025 will have the opportunity to see Communications Hub at the stand #D181 in action, meet the team behind it and explore how the platform can streamline their communication strategy.

“SBC is the perfect stage for our launch,” added Viktoriia. “It’s where forward-thinking businesses come to explore new technology and we’re ready to show them what’s possible.”

Who Should Visit

Communications Hub is built for any type of messages – from marketing agencies and trading platforms to online retailers and affiliate networks.

The platform’s combination of speed, stability and smart routing makes it particularly valuable for companies where every second and every message matters.

SBC Summit returns to Lisbon next week with its biggest edition yet, delivering 20% year-on-year growth to reach 30,000 delegates. The event will also debut fresh features addressing urgent industry priorities, alongside a renewed emphasis on hospitality.

With attendees from over 130 countries, the summit will take on its most international scope to date, introducing stages on Global and Emerging Markets and regionally focused networking spaces to spotlight opportunities across Africa, Latin America, Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and North America.

Agenda highlights include keynotes with Gary Vaynerchuk, Randi Zuckerberg, and a lineup of sporting icons, plus the launch of Tech Academies with hands-on learning in AI, blockchain, gamification, and marketing.

The expo floor, conveniently split into themed zones to help delegates navigate the 700 exhibitors across 135,000 square metres, will also feature lounges, interactive showcases, plus nine Food Festival areas offering more than 40 options. Notable names exhibiting on the floor include 1xBet, Altenar, Amusnet, Clever Advertising, Digitain, EveryMatrix, GR8 Tech, iGP, Kaizen Gaming, Optimove, PayFuture, Smartsoft, Soft2Bet and Stake.

Adding to the excitement, the show floor will also feature celebrity appearances and walkthroughs from the likes of award-winning artist Jordan Dawson, Portuguese actress and influencer Margarida Corceiro, and international footballers Cafu, Marco Materazzi, Claude Makélélé, and Marek Hamšík, among others.

Rasmus Sojmark, CEO and Founder of SBC, commented: “We are looking forward to SBC Summit returning to Lisbon next week. Last year was a huge success and taught us a lot, especially when it comes to what really connects with delegates.

“This year, we focused on the topics that matter most, from adding new stages covering global and emerging markets to dedicated academies on AI and marketing. And of course, some super star appearances to add that iconic SBC flair.”

On the educational front, the six-stage conference programme, which now includes the new Global and Emerging Markets stages, will bring together over 550 industry experts, 44% of whom are C-level executives. Affiliation and player protection will be discussed extensively, while the revamped technology stage will now include a focus on martech and payments, complementing the offerings at the Payment Expert Summit.

Adding to the event’s star-studded line-up will be the return of the Super Stage at the MEO Arena. The stage will host a series of inspirational talks from some of the biggest names in sport, including Oleksandr Usyk, Rubens Barrichello, and legendary footballers from the Legends Charity Game such as Kaká, Edwin van der Sar, Roberto Carlos, Michael Owen and Petr Čech.

The following evening, the industry will gather for the 12th edition of the SBC Awards.

The Affiliate Leaders Awards will also anchor the expanded Affiliate Leaders Summit, which this year runs across all three days and features a 40% larger show floor, bringing together the industry’s leading affiliates and operator affiliate programmes under one roof.

Closing the week, delegates will gather on Thursday evening for the INFINITY Lisbon Closing party, hosted at the MEO Arena. The finale will feature headline performances from EDM icons ALOK and Timmy Trumpet, ensuring the Summit concludes on a high note.
