The rapidly growing provider, that has made huge inroads in the LatAm market in 2023-24 across its three divisions; Vibra Gaming, Vibra Solutions and Vibra VLT, claimed the awards ahead of several larger and more well-established competitors.
In the bingo and lottery category the judges recognized Vibra for its pioneering approach to instant lottery products. Its Scratch-a-lot titles are unique in the market, and its EGM platform is specifically designed for LatAm.
Plans are already in place to expand its content portfolio across hundreds more video lottery terminals in Brazil following the great reception of its games on VLTs in the states of Paraíba and Maranhão. The company also plans to distribute content in terminals in Mexico, Peru, and Argentina in the coming months.
In the casino and iGaming category Vibra was rewarded for its high-performing proprietary content development and distribution that has formed the bedrock of the business since its foundation.
Ramiro Atucha, CEO, Vibra Gaming, said: “To see our efforts recognised across flagship categories that touch all three of our business divisions, and to win ahead of so many fantastic other suppliers, is one of the highlights of our journey as a company so far. To say we’re thrilled would be an understatement!
“These awards prove how far we’ve come in such a short space of time and justify all the effort every individual puts into Vibra every single day. I’m so pleased for everyone involved and I’d like to thank them all. They deserve this success.”
Founded four years ago by a management team of highly experienced industry experts with decades of land-based and online experience, Vibra Gaming has emerged as one of the most exciting and innovative content studios and software developers in the industry and rapidly grown to become the LatAm market’s ‘go-to’ partner for local and international operators.

Double win for Kaizen Gaming at the SBC Awards Latinoamérica 2024
Kaizen Gaming, one of the biggest GameTech companies in the world, had an impressive double-win at the SBC Awards Latinoamérica 2024 on the 31st October in Miami, Florida. Awarded ‘Brazilian Market Entrant of the Year’, and ‘Marketing Campaign of the Year’, the two wins follow an impressive year of growth and exposure for Kaizen Gaming, as well as its premium brand Betano, across Latin America and globally.
Betano is rapidly growing its user base and presence in Brazil, serving as the main and title sponsor of Brasileirão Betano and Copa Betano do Brasil. As a founding member of the ANJL and IBJR regulatory bodies, Betano is recognised for its dedication to upholding the highest standards of responsible gaming and integrity. Furthermore, the Betano brand has launched multiple CSR initiatives across the country in partnership with sponsored team, Clube Atlético Mineiro.

Awarded for the results and creativity of its innovative “Football in America” marketing campaign, Betano successfully introduced Latin America to its “Confia” brand platform by leveraging on its CONMEBOL Copa America™️ 2024 sponsorship. The campaign chimed with the spirit of fans across the continent by celebrating Latin America’s rich football heritage, playfully responding to Kylian Mbappe’s 2022 comments questioning the region’s football quality.
Vangelis Skarkalis, Kaizen Gaming Senior Commercial Director LATAM, said: “Latin America is one of the world’s most dynamic and exciting regions for i-gaming. Being recognised as a leading player in this important market with two wins at the prestigious SBC Awards Latinoamérica is a great honour – especially on the heels of our recent double-win as ‘Operator of the Year’ at both the EGR Operator Awards and SBC Awards. Achieving this success requires an exceptional team of dedicated, ambitious professionals. This award honours everyone’s hard work and commitment to always going above and beyond in delivering the best experiences for our customers not only in Latin America, but worldwide too.”
