Atlas-IAC unveils its automated tools & next generation “no-risk” sportsbook at SBC Summit Barcelona
Atlas-IAC, the leading sportsbook and PAM software developer, will make its debut at SBC Summit Barcelona, Europe’s premier sports betting and igaming summit, next week at the Catalan capital’s renowned Fira de Barcelona Montjuïc exhibition centre (20-22 September), where Atlas delegates will be on hand to unpack its latest plans and innovative product suite at Stand E1.
Atlas-IAC will take this timely opportunity to showcase its diverse, cutting-edge automated trading tools and fully automated CRM solution, which allows the complete management of customer marketing and communication activities in one place. Customers can be grouped into profiled segments based on site activity, betting behaviour, deposit regularity and a host of additional personal traits.
Get in touch to book a meeting to discuss the full platform; consider its “no-risk” sportsbook option; evaluate its in-built CRM and trading tools, built by some of the finest trading minds in the business. Or simply stop by Stand E1, where a host of team delegates will be waiting to greet you or arrange an easy-to-follow demonstration.
Atlas-IAC’s next-generation sportsbook can also now be integrated as an iFrame on a no-risk structure, running off unique pricing models – allowing users to enjoy sophisticated and reactive in-play odds up to the last second of a game, with competitive pricing on all sports. This service arrives in perfect time for this autumn’s relentless sporting schedule, including the forthcoming football World Cup.
Atlas-IAC’s modern technology helps to overcome local regulatory challenges with a light physical deployment backed up by centralised control systems. The company has always placed a strong premium on social responsibility and its solution offers full workflow management across AML and customer interactions as well as flexible tools for self-exclusion, time-outs and self-imposed limits.
Among Atlas’ assorted tailored solutions for European operators are localized sports betting products, coupled with data feed solutions and a full suite of casino and skill-based games.
Richard Thorp, Strategic Advisor to Atlas-IAC and RPM Gaming Director, said: “After a stunning summer of sport, SBC Summit Barcelona brings together many of the sector’s heavy hitters for a timely think tank. At Atlas and RPM, we’re solving for how the industry can best provide operators and bettors with engaging, innovative betting experiences across some tent-pole, revenue-driving events this autumn – dominated, as ever, by the football World Cup (invariably a defining moment for revenue and new-account growth) but not forgetting many other sports, of course, like the T20 World Cup cricket, and the recently renewed NFL campaign stateside.
“Thanks to our progressive partnership with Atlas-IAC, we now provide unrivalled customised platform solutions, industry-leading automation and world-class support. To learn more about Atlas-IAC’s automated technology and the benefits of our platform, just drop us a line, or pop by Stand E1 where my team and I look forward to welcoming you.
“Furthermore, should any operator or casino be looking to mitigate the potential risk of integrating a new sportsbook, our sportsbook solution can now uniquely underwrite all the trading downside for running its services as a statement of intent and the ability of its underlying platform to deliver in any global market.
“The idea behind it is mainly aimed at casino operators or other single product operators, especially ones that aren’t used to a sportsbook solution itself. For example, those who wouldn’t want to have a trading team; they might ostensibly baulk at the typical risks involved in running a sportsbook. Sportsbooks used to be seen by some as a high-risk offering, or a volatile area in which to operate. But our simple concept is, if you are a casino operator, we will integrate as an iframe into your platform – and we will underwrite all the risk. You literally don’t have to burn any fuel managing it, nor worrying about it. We’ll take care of everything. And if there is any downside, as I say, we’ll underwrite that.”
Sergei Efimenko, CEO of Atlas-IAC, added: “SBC Summit Barcelona is a must-attend event, and there’s a real momentum behind this year’s renewal at the revered Fira de Barcelona Montjuïc, particularly when all the challenges of the pandemic have created such a pent-up demand to reconnect in the real world. It’s fantastic to be back together. I’m thoroughly impressed with the quality, quantity and diversity of the delegates on site, so we can’t wait to catch up with old and new friends alike.
“As for our leading sportsbook platform, we’re supremely confident in the automation. Plus, we know how to manage diverse customer bases, premised on their history and the patterns of behaviour. So, whatever previous concerns may’ve been around operating a sportsbook (e.g. betting just before an event starts, betting at a time where there’s potentially an unreliable feed) we have the tools to spot that and correct for it. As a result, for us, underwriting wasn’t a big challenge, and we are willing to offer that on a competitive revenue-share model for new partners.
“The Atlas-IAC team will be on Stand E1 throughout the week. Please contact our friendly staff to organise a demonstration of the most modern and thorough platform in the betting and gaming industry. Nos vemos en Barcelona!”

BetMGM Offers Interstate Online Poker, Merges New Jersey and Michigan Markets
BetMGM Poker has become the third US operator to offer multi-state online poker. The company has merged its player pools in Michigan and New Jersey. Both states are a part of the Multi-State Internet Gaming Agreement (MSIGA), which allows online poker networks to share liquidity and players in participating markets. The two-state network went live Wednesday afternoon after morning maintenance.
BetMGM VP of Gaming, Angust Nisbet, said: “This is a landmark day for our poker product as we combine player pools in select markets. With the introduction of shared liquidity, we’ve listened to players’ desire for more games and larger prize pools. By showcasing our best-in-class omnichannel experience – spanning property, sports betting and online casino – we’re committed to providing an unparalleled poker experience for our players.”
Michigan is the newest operational online poker market, passing legislation in 2020 and launching in early 2021. This was more than seven years after New Jersey online poker went live in November 2013.
New Jersey joined MSIGA in 2017, two years after Nevada and Delaware entered into the agreement. Michigan joined in 2022, a relatively short timeframe compared to the states preceding it.
Michigan’s entrance has fast-tracked interstate online poker compared to the slow progress made before.
Its first multi-state venture came on Jan. 1, 2023, when PokerStars Michigan combined its New Jersey and Michigan markets. WSOP Michigan became part of a three-state agreement with New Jersey and Nevada in May 2024, and BetMGM marks the state’s third major operator joining forces across state lines.
BetMGM Poker will create a more prominent player pool for New Jersey and Michigan online poker players. By nature, this will result in larger tournament prize pools for both states. It will also add extra competition for the other two multi-state sites in the two markets.

Petersburg, Virginia Residents Vote Yes! for Live! Casino Resort
The citizens of Petersburg have spoken, and the historic casino referendum has passed with overwhelming support of over 80% of Petersburg residents voting in favor of the $1.4 billion Live! Casino Resort project, marking the highest support for a casino referendum in Virginia history. This marks a monumental step forward for the Petersburg community, as the approval paves the way for the development of a world-class casino and entertainment destination that promises to revitalize the local economy, create jobs, and invest in much-needed community services.
Live! Casino Resort, which will be codeveloped by The Cordish Companies and Bruce Smith Enterprise, is projected to bring significant economic benefits to the region. This development will include not only gaming and entertainment options but also restaurants, hotels, and event spaces, making Petersburg a destination for tourism and entertainment in Virginia. Construction will commence after the vote is certified and all required approvals are received, with an anticipated opening date of the initial first phase casino in 2026.
“We are deeply gratified by the community’s affirmation of this project and very hopeful about the meaningful impact it will have on the city’s future. The casino will not only create good-paying jobs for our residents but will also attract visitors statewide and beyond, stimulating local businesses and in turn producing an overall ripple effect of economic growth. Now that the voters have spoken, we look forward to working with the City of Petersburg and the Virginia Lottery to secure all of the necessary permitting, licensing and regulatory approvals for this project to move forward,” said Bruce Smith, Owner of Bruce Smith Enterprise, Pro Football Hall of Fame Member, Developer and Community Leader, and codeveloper of the planned Live! Casino Resort in Petersburg.
The casino project is part of a larger revitalization plan for Petersburg, which has faced economic challenges in recent years. This initiative, alongside other investments in infrastructure and local businesses, will position the city for long-term growth and success.
“The approval of the destination resort and casino in Petersburg marks a significant milestone for our City. Voter approval follows a three-year journey on this transformative project that will bring positive change to Petersburg for generations. This destination resort, casino, retail, and residential development will be the largest economic and tourism project in Petersburg’s history. City Council and administration look forward to working with The Cordish Companies and Bruce Smith Enterprise to positively impact our community and its prosperity,” said Mayor Sam Parham, City of Petersburg, VA.
Live! Casino Resort will be a catalyst for change and significant urban development, transforming the City through the creation of a thriving entertainment and hospitality destination. The project will set a new standard for gaming, hotels, and entertainment in the Commonwealth, and serve as a new world-class attraction for Petersburg and the greater Central Virginia region. The project site, ideally situated at the intersection of Wagner Road and Interstate I-95, has easy access on and off the East Coast’s major north-south interstate.
“Today is a new day for residents of Petersburg. This community has waited a long time for an economic development project of this size and scale, which will provide a huge boost for the City and the entire region. We cannot wait to start hiring local residents and partnering with local businesses and entrepreneurs. Thank you, Petersburg, for placing your trust and confidence in our team. We look forward to delivering results for you and being a part of this great community for decades to come,” said Zed Smith, Chief Operating Officer of The Cordish Companies.
