SOFTSWISS, a leading software development company in the iGaming sector, unveils its innovative portfolio at ICE Barcelona 2025, held in Barcelona for the first time.

The relocation of ICE, the iGaming industry’s largest trade fair, from London to Barcelona marks a significant milestone. The IMF has named Spain the ‘best-performing economy’ globally by the end of 2024. With Spain’s Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR) reaching €1.24 billion in 2023, the decision underscores the country’s growing influence in the industry. 

As a global leader in iGaming, SOFTSWISS showcased its cutting-edge software solutions. One of the key highlights was the company’s Game Aggregator, the largest game hub in the market, featuring a portfolio of over 27,800 games from 280+ providers. Fully certified in security and technical compliance both in new regulated markets such as Peru and Brazil, as well as established European markets like Spain, the event’s host country, this solution ensures seamless integration for operators while adhering to regulatory requirements. 

“We are thrilled to be part of ICE 2025, especially in this historic edition in Barcelona. The relocation of ICE from London to Barcelona underscores the maturity of Spain’s iGaming industry. This move not only cements the city’s status as a major hub for iGaming but is also poised to positively impact the local economy through increased tourism, business opportunities, and industry innovation,” said Valentina Bagniya, Chief Marketing Officer at SOFTSWISS. She also highlighted that Barcelona is becoming a tech hub for innovation, blending high-quality standards with global visibility.

SOFTSWISS also showcased its new marketing campaign through a live performance by Slim Safont, the renowned local artist with iconic works in Los Angeles, Italy, and New York. 

On the opening day, the company surprised attendees by unveiling its new marketing campaign, ‘Hungry for Success? Dive in with SOFTSWISS’. The idea was brought to life through a powerful shark image symbolising strength, leadership, and technological superiority. Visitors had the opportunity to explore the concept at the SOFTSWISS booth, as well as participate in Slim Safont’s live performance, co-creating the image of the technological shark in front of the venue. 

Slim Safont stated: “These types of visual activations allow brands to connect with their audience, and in this case, thanks to the participation of the fair’s attendees, we succeeded in creating a more engaging and memorable experience.”

In addition to product updates, SOFTSWISS demonstrated its commitment to exploring new markets and sharing its expertise. Max Trafimovich, Chief Commercial Officer at SOFTSWISS, participated in  a masterclass focusing on opportunities in the UAE, sharing his insights into market entry strategies and regulatory frameworks.

Groove says it has surpassed 20,000 casino titles on its aggregation platform, up from 15,000 games two years ago. The company said the library now includes content from more than 150 providers and is available to partners worldwide through a single API.

According to Groove, the portfolio spans slots, instant wins, table games, crash games, live dealer and arcade-style content, alongside “emerging verticals including sweepstakes and crypto-native content.” The company said the catalogue is delivered through “one API, one back office, one pipeline,” and positioned the milestone as a curated expansion rather than a volume play.

Rachel Tourgeman, Head of Partnerships at Groove, said: “Twenty thousand games is a number. What matters is what sits behind it…She added: “We don’t add studios for the sake of volume. We add them because they bring something distinctive: a mechanical innovation, a visual language, a player-engagement hook that our operators can’t get elsewhere. Our partners trust us to curate, not just collect. That trust is why we keep growing, and why the quality curve keeps rising alongside the quantity curve.”

Groove pointed to recent integrations including KingMidas Games (150+ mobile-first titles), Urgent Games and Bryogames, which it said offers “proprietary mathematics with real-time RTP customisation.” For operators, Groove said the full library is accessible via Groove Command, its centralised back-office product, with tools including content matching, regional segmentation and automated tournaments.

Yahale Meltzer, Co-Founder and CEO of Groove, said: “The aggregation space is crowded with platforms that offer ‘access’ and little else,” adding: “Twenty thousand games through a single API is not just scale. It is a statement.” Meltzer also claimed Groove’s “technology stack with predictive auto-scaling, atomic transactions, real-time compliance mesh” supports execution “across fragmented regulatory landscapes with precision.”

OS Studios has appointed Ishaan Arya as Country Manager for India, tasking him with leading the agency’s expansion across newly established hubs in Bengaluru, New Delhi, and Mumbai. The appointment was announced on 25 June, 2026 in Bengaluru.

OS Studios, a Project Worldwide agency, said it recently entered the Indian market and will deploy its ‘Fan Z’ approach for brands looking to engage with gaming, esports and live events audiences in South Asia. The company said the expansion will leverage the infrastructure and production capabilities of sister agency George P. Johnson (GPJ) India.

“The future of gaming will be shaped by the communities that care about it most, and few markets embody that more than India,” said John Higgins, CEO of OS Studios. “To build something meaningful, you have to be part of the culture, not looking in from the outside. Ishaan understands that better than anyone. He’s exactly the kind of leader we want building the future of OS Studios in India.”

In the role, Arya will oversee operations, drive strategic brand partnerships, and scale local capabilities, according to the company. “Brands are investing heavily in Indian gaming, but true fan experience is too often an afterthought,” said Rasheed Sait, Chief Growth Officer for India and South Asia at Project Worldwide. “Alongside GPJ India’s experiential footprint, OS Studios will set a new standard for fan engagement in the region.”

Arya previously co-founded The Esports Club and most recently served as Vice President of Partnerships at Nodwin Gaming, where he led Comic Con India. “A massive gap remains between brand intent and authentic community engagement in India,” said Arya. “I’m thrilled to leverage Project Worldwide and GPJ India’s operational strength to build culture-defining experiences for brands and fans alike.”
