MOTORSPORT TECHNOLOGY PIONEERS GRIIIP SECURES SERIES SEED FUNDING TOWARDS RAPID MARKET EXPANSION
Griiip, the Tel Aviv / Petach Tikva, Israel-based motorsport data technology company, announced the successful conclusion of Series Seed funding. U.S.-based investment firm, Sharp Alpha Advisors is among the leading investors in this round, joining existing strategic investors, including Porsche Ventures, the venture capital division of the iconic sports car manufacturer Porsche. The funding will act as a catalyst to support Griiip’s continued global expansion as the company works to achieve its mission of leading the transformation of motorsport viewer experiences through the application of next generation technology.
Already in action in the world-famous DTM racing series, Griiip’s cloud-based data platform makes real-time racing data available to motorsport fans, media and the gaming ecosystem. This helps attract younger audiences who demand a more immersive and personalized viewing experience of their favorite sports through digital mediums. Griiip’s proprietary ‘RedBox’ hardware collects data from race cars in real-time to a central cloud platform, where it is immediately analyzed to create data-driven products including live production graphics with expert insights, fantasy and sports betting applications and more connected fan engagement platforms.
“We’re very pleased to welcome our new investment partners into the Griiip team, a group who share our vision of transforming the way motorsport series and fans engage with each other through next generation tech,” said Griiip founder and CEO Tamir Plachinsky. “As racing fans ourselves, we know how much demand there is among the motorsport community to bring series and fans closer together, and this first round of funding will help us do precisely that. Griiip technology platforms connects all the players in the motorsport ecosystem through data-driven applications that increase fan engagement, generate new monetization opportunities for series and teams that have not been available until now.
Plachinsky goes on to add that “the sports tech market has grown rapidly in recent years, particularly in the areas of sports data infrastructure, intelligent visualization capabilities, computer vision-powered data collection, mobile fan engagement, and fantasy games and sports betting. While the global motorsport industry is rooted in technology, the viewing experience and fan engagement platforms have fallen behind other sports such as football, basketball, baseball, and American football. Griiip makes the motorsport ecosystem more accessible for fans by providing innovative ways for racing organizations, leagues, franchises and car manufacturers to engage with, provide value to, and monetize their target audiences through the application of tech hardware and software”. Partnering with the DTM in 2021/22 laid the groundwork for other top tier racing leagues to collaborate with Griiip.
Griiip investor, Sharp Alpha Advisors’ Lloyd Danzig said: “The business of motorsports is growing and evolving more rapidly than ever before, alongside a transformation in online betting and gaming. Griiip leverages data and analytics to enable racing teams, leagues, and media platforms to modernize their infrastructure and compete in an increasingly digital business landscape. There is no company better positioned than Griiip to capitalize on the bridging of the digital and physical worlds of racing.”

Tequity and iBankroll forge strategic partnership
Tequity, the technology partner behind some of the industry’s most scalable and customisable gaming solutions, has announced a strategic partnership with iBankroll that brings together two complementary engines of operator growth: high-performance Originals content and a liquidity support solution designed to remove exposure and empower operators to scale responsibly.
The partnership reflects a shared ambition to help operators overcome both creative and capital constraints. Through iBankroll’s Bankroll-as-a-Service solution, partners gain access to Tequity’s modular Remote Game Server (RGS) and its expanding portfolio of fully customisable Originals – a suite of provably fair, streamer-friendly, brandable titles engineered for next-generation engagement.
By aligning liquidity support with cutting-edge content delivery, the partnership aims to remove longstanding barriers in the iGaming sector – whether related to volatility, differentiation, or the technical bandwidth required to launch new experiences at speed.
Operators will now be able to offer bigger limits, streamline withdrawals, and deploy fully brandable Originals, supported by a capital-efficient foundation that enhances consistency and theoretical value.
With operators increasingly seeking adaptable content frameworks and operational models that support higher limits and smoother user experiences, the collaboration introduces an integrated pathway to growth.
The joint rollout marks the beginning of a broader collaboration, with both companies focused on accelerating innovation across fintech and gaming technology.
Dominic Sawyer, VP Growth at Tequity, said: “iBankroll removes the capital constraint for ambitious operators. Tequity does the same on the content side with high-performance, fully brandable house games. Together, we give partners the confidence to offer bigger limits and smooth withdrawals on games that players genuinely love.”
Hayden Bowman, Co-Founder of iBankroll, added: “Tequity’s engineering expertise, scalable infrastructure, and standout Originals portfolio make them an ideal partner. Bringing their technology together with our Bankroll-as-a-Service gives operators a compelling foundation to grow, innovate, and future-proof their business.”

Fortune of Olympus
PRAGMATIC PLAY STRIKES GOLD WITH FORTUNE OF OLYMPUS
Pragmatic Play, a leading content supplier to the iGaming industry, unleashes a thunderous new entry in its iconic Greek Gods series with Fortune of Olympus – an electrifying 7×7 cluster-pays slot charged with random multipliers, dynamic special bets, and a 10,000x max win.
Fortune of Olympus is the latest feature-packed addition to the industry-leading Gates of Olympus universe. The blockbuster slot delivers explosive action as clusters of 5-15+ matching symbols reward players with wins of up to 150x in the base game.
On any spin, mighty multiplier symbols worth 2x-500x can strike the grid. When multiple multipliers hit, their values combine and detonate into a single, supercharged payout at the end of the tumbling sequence.
Landing 4-7 scatter symbols triggers the bonus game, awarding 15-30 free spins. During this striking feature, every multiplier that appears is added to a growing total multiplier, which is applied to all subsequent wins in the round, building tension and potential with every spin.
Players in certain markets can also amplify the action with special bets. Ante bets boost the chance of triggering Free Spins or Super Free Spins. The two Super Spins options guarantee at least one multiplier on every spin, with the second raising the minimum multiplier value to 50x.
Those eager for instant power can jump straight into Free Spins or Super Free Spins via 100x or 500x bonus buys, with the latter ensuring all multipliers start from 5x and above.
Fortune of Olympus marks the triumphant return of Pragmatic Play’s legendary Zeus character, following the success of Gates of Olympus Super Scatter and Gates of Olympus 1000, and pushes the fan-favourite series into thrilling new territory.
Irina Cornides, Chief Operating Officer at Pragmatic Play, said: “Fortune of Olympus is a stunning addition to Pragmatic Play’s popular Greek Gods series and a distinctly different kind of outing for Zeus. Taking the iconic Gates of Olympus series in a thrilling new direction, this feature-rich slot delivers a standout experience with epic win potential.”
