Successful participation highlighted by strong visibility, new launches, and industry recognition

DATA.BET, a trusted sportsbook solution supplier, delivered a strong performance and showcased an extended product range in Lisbon last week. The company’s stand became one of the most striking in the hall, and as the exhibition concluded, DATA.BET was recognized with the Rising Star in Sports Betting Innovation / Software nomination at the SBC Awards 2025.

From September 16–18, DATA.BET presented its updated portfolio covering sports, esports, and virtual sports to operators and platform providers. The stand attracted steady attention, with visitors exploring the company’s latest product updates — including creatively designed Widgets, Bet Builder, and Hot Bundles for optimized express betting.

This year, DATA.BET brought its largest on-site team to date, representing multiple areas of expertise. The expanded presence enabled the company to give visitors a comprehensive view of its end-to-end solutions and detailed technical and business insights tailored to operator needs. Throughout the summit, the team engaged in productive meetings with partners and industry experts, participated in media interviews, and facilitated valuable networking opportunities.

GR8 Tech landed heavyweight wins on all fronts at SBC Summit 2025, taking home the prestigious Platform Provider of the Year award and drawing record-breaking crowds with its Heavyweight Club activation with Ready to Fight, which brought undisputed world champion Oleksandr Usyk to the summit floor.

Heavyweight Presence: Super Stage Panel and iGaming Influencers at GR8 Tech Booth

On the Super Stage, GR8 Tech and Ready to Fight held “The Heavyweight Playbook: Building Businesses That Perform When It Matters Most” panel discussion. Oleksandr Usyk opened up about discipline and trust in his team, while Kyrylo Korobka, Executive Director at Ready to Fight, emphasized the importance of data-driven preparation. Yevhen Krazhan, CSO at GR8 Tech, showed how the same principles apply to iGaming, where platforms must perform flawlessly under pressure.

“Whether it’s preparing for a championship fight or building an iGaming platform, excellence comes from systematic discipline, not just talent,” Yevhen Krazhan, CSO at GR8 Tech, said during the discussion.

Following the panel discussion, the punch machine challenge at GR8 Tech’s stand brought together influential industry leaders, creating one of the most talked-about activations of the entire Summit.

GR8 Tech’s CEO Oleksandr Feshchenko claimed the top score and Usyk’s signed gloves. However, given GR8 Tech’s partnership with Ready to Fight, the prize was never meant to stay in-house—instead going to the next highest scorer, Rasmus Sojmark, CEO and Founder of SBC Gaming, capturing the core of the Heavyweight Club philosophy: champions create champions.

Usyk’s appearance drew massive attention, driving a fivefold increase in traffic to the GR8 Tech stand—igniting new sales opportunities and sparking a surge of meaningful engagement with prospects and partners.
