Betcris Executives To Feature At Upcoming SBC Digital Summit LatinoAmérica Gaming Conference

Published

on

 

The SBC Digital Summit Latinoamérica conference is scheduled to be held next week, bringing together gaming and industry leaders to discuss how the growing Latin American (LatAm) gambling industry is poised to explode. It is the largest virtual event in Latin America, and will provide fully digital and interactive conferences, along with exhibits and networking experiences for delegates interested in the gaming and betting industry. In order to analyze the current state of the industry and emerging opportunities in the LatAm market, SBC has convened the most distinguished experts in the industry and recognized leaders to share their visions. Among these will be several executives of LatAm’s leading gaming company, Betcris.

The online summit will be held across two days next week, June 16 and 17. As with previous virtual events organized by SBC, this one promises to be a major networking and data-channeling event that everyone in the LatAm gaming industry must attend. Getting things going will be Sports Betting In Focus, a look at how sports gambling is helping catapult all other types of gaming activity across the region. It will explore how regulations are currently being implemented, as well as what the future holds for the entire Latin American gaming market.

Following a keynote speech on sports integrity from the ethics and compliance officer of the South American Football Confederation, Graciela Garay, the conference’s first panel will be held. Grey to White is designed to explore the different ways in which sportsbooks can alter their marketing messages in order to be in compliance with regulatory frameworks that are being implemented across the region, and Betcris CEO JD Duarte will be taking the stage with a couple of other gaming industry leaders to explain how things are evolving. Specific topics included in the panel discussion will be how operators can effectively promote their brands while remaining compliant, what opportunities are surfacing through sponsorship and broadcasting deals and what impact regulations will have on affiliate entities.

Joining a panel on eSports in LatAm will be Oscar Miranda Palma, Lines Manager-Esports Supervisor for Betcris. As eSports continues to become more popular and is now a key vertical for gaming operators during the COVID-19 pandemic, new challenges have been brought to the forefront of the vertical. Companies are seeking out new ways to engage fans, and Palma will be discussing how operators can learn from what has already been established in regions such as the US and Asia.

There are ample opportunities for LatAm operators to build upon the success of other areas, and LatAm eSports activity has the potential to be a huge revenue stream for companies that implement the proper structures.

Also speaking at the summit will be Fernando Garita, the head of business development at Betcris. He will focus on lottery operations in LatAm, joining delegates to discuss how lotteries are currently being run in different LatAm countries and what is in store for the future. Lotteries have always been a significant part of gaming operations throughout the region, and are gaining more importance in light of the global pandemic as a means of keeping revenue-generating channels open.

SBC Digital Summit Latinoamérica is going to set the stage for how operators introduce new solutions going forward, which will enable better, more solid growth for the region’s gaming initiatives. According to SBC founder and CEO Rasmus Sojmark, speaking about the event at the end of May, “This is a fantastic way to kick-off our first-ever dedicated Latin American event, as some of the most influential executives in the industry join us to outline how the sports betting sector can achieve its potential in the region.”

Blitzcrown Secures GLI Certification for Three Crash Games in Brazil

 

Breaking New Ground in Brazil: Blitzcrown’s Crash Games Now GLI Certified

Blitzcrown, MVG’s pioneering games studio, has secured Brazilian Certification as well as GLI-19 Certification from GLI(Gaming Laboratories International) for its industry-changing three Crash titles. This landmark achievement marks a significant milestone in the company’s expansion into Brazil’s thriving online gaming market, positioning Blitzcrown at the forefront of the region’s rapidly evolving iGaming landscape.

The license comes at an important time for Brazil’s gaming sector, following the launch of the new licensing regime that started on January 1, 2025. The regulatory framework, signed into law in December 2023, has transformed the industry’s prospects.

The certification encompasses 3 innovative crash games: Crash, Fast Crash, and Twin Crash. This strategic milestone establishes Blitzcrown as the premier provider of certified Crash games in the Brazilian market, demonstrating the company’s unwavering commitment to regulatory excellence and gaming integrity. With the GLI-19 and Brazil certification process successfully concluded in March, Blitzcrown has solidified its position as an industry pioneer in this dynamic and emerging market.

Crash games are a recent addition to the global iGaming market, featuring the dynamic evolution of real-time multipliers and immediate reward structures. Blitzcrown has stood out by establishing groundbreaking game mechanisms that offer different and exciting gameplay experiences. Standard Crash provides players with a standard multiplier-based gaming experience, and Fast Crash is optimized for users seeking quick, intense multiplier experiences. The Twin Crash is an original format allowing players to place simultaneous bets on two separate multipliers.

Building on this momentum, Blitzcrown has announced plans to expand its certified portfolio with two additional versions of its innovative Plinko games, demonstrating the company’s strategic commitment to market expansion. This forward-looking initiative underscores Blitzcrown’s dedication to continuous innovation and sustainable growth in the regulated gaming markets.

Blitzcrown is MVG’s edge-game studio focused on pushing game ideas beyond their norms through innovative and non-traditional gaming experiences. The studio has been particularly recognized for its groundbreaking approaches in various game categories, including its successful Crash and Plinko series.

George Cho from MVG said: “This GLI certification testifies to Blitzcrown’s unwavering commitment to offering top-quality, fair gaming systems. We are well placed to take advantage of Brazil’s exciting new regulatory environment and the vast growth potential of the online gaming industry.”

QTech Games sharpens its LatAm focus with MINCETUR licence in Peru

QTech Games sharpens its LatAm focus with MINCETUR licence in Peru

 

New certification for emerging-markets leader arrives ahead of key industry summit in Sao Paulo and awards recognition

QTech Games, the leading game aggregator for emerging markets, has had its platform and games successfully approved for the Peruvian market, demonstrating that its premier B2B platform and all-encompassing content conforms to the latest legislative updates to enhance and regulate Peru’s local gaming environment.

Peru’s Ministry of Foreign Commerce and Tourism (MINCETUR) has now issued an online gaming licence to QTech Games, whereby all its platform products and games are now deemed legally permitted. This includes its new software service for retail, QTech Hybrid, which allows land-based partners to scale their operations online. QTech Hybrid simplifies transactions by enabling deposits, withdrawals and gameplay while allowing access to players both in-shop and on personal devices.

This breakthrough hybrid solution has quickly won clients and awards in the comparably fragmented African market (most recently in March for Best Innovation at AGE Lagos), and now promises to do likewise across LatAm, where QTech Games has already signed several major clients for both its aggregation platform and its QTech Hybrid solution. This activity has seen it again nominated for Best Aggregator at the SiGMA Americas Awards, which kickstart the SiGMA Americas summit (7-10 April) next week, as the igaming world converges on Sao Paulo for a must-attend conference in another of QTech Games’ “focus markets” for 2025.

Philip Doftvik, QTech Games’ CEO, said: “It’s fantastic to have certified our aggregation platform in Peru via MINCETUR – and I’m pleased to say we have more such approvals pending across the continent. We attended fantastic events in Rio and, more recently, SAGSE 2025 in Buenos Aires – and anticipate more of the same at SiGMA Americas in Sao Paulo next week, where we’re also thrilled to have been shortlisted for Best Aggregator at their LatAm Awards. Given the venue, Brazil will be dominating the discussion for many at SiGMA Sao Paulo. However, we’ll also be looking beyond Brazilian borders this year, and are already active in Mexico, Chile, Colombia and Paraguay. We know our QTech Hybrid solution will work very well wherever we put a pin on the LatAm map.”

QTech Games delegates will be present at five more LatAm summits in 2025, with SiGMA Americas (7 April) the next port of call – followed by GAT Expo Cartagena (28 April), SBC Americas (13 May), Peru Gaming Show (18 June) and GAT Expo Mexico (28 Aug).
