VeliGames Secures SiGMA Africa’s Industry Rising Star Award
VeliGames, a game aggregation platform from VeliTech, has received the Industry Rising Star award at the SiGMA Africa 2026 Awards, highlighting the platform’s swift innovation and significant influence on African iGaming.
The Industry Rising Star award highlights a developing company that displays remarkable potential, creativity, and influence, rapidly positioning itself as a forthcoming leader in the iGaming sector. It emphasizes VeliGames’ dedication to providing not just a content pipeline, but also genuine innovation and a comprehensive growth engine for operators in developing markets.
“Winning the SiGMA Africa Award for Industry Rising Star 2026 is a proud moment for our team. From day one, we built VeliGames with African operators in mind, combining local-fit content, practical tooling, and pricing that makes sense on the ground. We back it all up with hands-on operational know-how from working in the region. That’s what being a true content partner looks like.” Irakli Kakhidze, CEO at VeliGames.
Tailored for Africa’s infrastructure challenges, device characteristics, and user habits, VeliGames provides a performance-oriented casino content layer aimed at thriving in areas where conventional, high-bandwidth aggregation methods struggle. Rather than solely competing based on catalogue size, VeliGames prioritizes the key factors that genuinely contribute to casino success in Africa: speed, accessibility, conversion, and session stability.
The platform delivers content in a highly efficient, mobile-centric setting designed to function dependably amid variable connectivity, restricted device storage, and brief gaming sessions, assisting operators in ensuring seamless gameplay and enhanced player experiences on a larger scale.
Alongside curated third-party titles, the platform includes exclusive in-house content:
- VeliPlay: bold, crash-and-fast titles built for immersion, retention, and high replay value
- Heaven of 7: high-impact slot content designed for strong engagement, session after session

AGS Wins Two Awards at 8th Annual Eilers & Krejcik Gaming Slot Awards
AGS has won two awards at the Eilers & Krejcik (EKG) Slot Awards, held at Palms Resort Casino on February 26. The Company was honored by industry experts with being awarded Most Improved Supplier – Core 2025 and Top Performing New Online Table Game 2025 for Blackjack Single Deck.
This is the third time in EKG Slot Awards history that AGS has won Most Improved Supplier – Core, and the second year ASG Interactive received an award in the real-money online gaming category.
“We are thrilled to be recognized by the experts for the innovation that everyone at AGS works tirelessly to deliver to our customers and players. Receiving these awards is a testament to the strength of our land-based slot content and expansive online portfolio, which now incorporates table games,” said Mark DeDeaux, Senior Vice President and GM of Slots at AGS.
Every month, AGS’ Core cabinets and slot titles appear in the Eilers & Krejcik Gaming Casino Games Report, reinforcing the strength behind the Company’s Most Improved Supplier – Core award. Their consistently high-performing products continue to stand out across the industry, earning praise from players and operators for their engaging designs, familiarity, and proven performance.
AGS entered the online table game market in 2024 with the launch of War, and after seeing strong results, AGS Interactive (AGSi) expanded the portfolio with a suite of blackjack titles, including Blackjack Single Deck, Blackjack Double Deck, and Blackjack Side Bets. The innovative addition of Blackjack Single Deck brings the excitement of AGS’ proprietary land‑based traditional felt side bets – such as InBet, Jack‑A‑Tack, Hole Card Bonus, and Trifecta Blackjack – into an online‑friendly experience. This convergence of land‑based innovation with simplified digital gameplay sets Blackjack Single Deck apart in the real‑money online table‑game category.
