Sportworld Partners with Stats Perform
B1 SmartTV GmbH has unveiled an extensive multi-year partnership between its pioneering Smart TV and Smartphone sports streaming platform, Sportworld, and Stats Perform, the global leader in sports data, content and analytics.
The collaboration is set to significantly elevate the accessibility and popularity of sport on Smart TVs and Smartphones for fans, rightsholders and advertisers by integrating Stats Perform’s extensive Opta data feeds, visualisations, video and automated graphics deeply into the way viewers find and enjoy content in the Sportworld platform, across 3600 competitions in 22 sports.
The Opta data integration means Sportworld users in more than 190 countries can expect unprecedented context to immerse them more deeply in more sports and competitions. This will include interactive, personalised experiences powered by live stats and insights across all major competitions and top leagues such as NBA, NFL, Formula 1, as well as grandstand sports events like UEFA EURO 2024.
Additionally, the partnership enables Sportworld to offer exciting content from Stats Perform’s PressBox Video and PressBox Graphics applications, including highlights, press conferences, interviews, data videos, team news, lineups, recaps, ratings and much more, in a multitude of languages.
The net result is a significant increase to the premium content available on Sportworld’s platform and mobile apps, an expansion in sponsorable assets, and a transformation in the way fans find, follow, watch and enjoy sport on Smart TVs, elevating the first- and second-screen sports narrative to new heights.
Gerd Weiner, Founder and Managing Director of B1 SmartTV, said: “Our partnership with Stats Perform is a milestone in global sports distribution. Sportworld, as the only global sports streaming platform that offers access to content, data, and program information on a single platform, now enhances the sports fan experience by adding more data and innovative features like our 24/7 fully automated sports data channels.”
Dr. Robert Niemann, Managing Director of B1 SmartTV overseeing content, rights & media, said: “Stats Perform are the only provider that can deliver such extensive data and content. Global fans know and trust their Opta brand, which goes from strength to strength. This collaboration really boosts our platforms and strategy to give rights holders and broadcasters a unique platform to showcase their content. Adding more relevant data to every sports competition is a big deal, setting the stage for new creative ideas that will provide billions of sports fans with a more complete experience for their favourite sports – and their future favourites, because it’ll make more sports more appealing.”
Steve Xeller, Chief Revenue Officer at Stats Perform, said: “The integration of our Opta data feeds and products into the innovative Sportworld App is a golden opportunity to harness the full power of Smart TVs and Smartphones to tell new stories and connect fans and sponsors to sport beyond anything seen so far. It’s especially exciting that we can help achieve this in more than 190 countries. We are thrilled about the prospect of showcasing what can be built with our products to enrich the way top-class sport is experienced and make it mean more to more people, in every corner of the planet.”

GR8 Tech Delivers Heavyweight Performance at SiGMA Central Europe 2025
Reading Time: 2 minutes
GR8 Tech stepped into SiGMA Central Europe (November 3–6, Rome) and left the ring with the strongest sales performance on record. Fueled by the boxing-themed Platform for Champions experience, the collaboration with Behind The Gloves, and demos of ULTIM8 Sportsbook, the Heavyweight Club energy translated directly into standout sales performance.
Platform for Champions, Proven in the Arena
Over three days, GR8 Tech logged 140 qualified meetings, which included sessions with existing clients that opened new opportunities and first-time conversations with operators and potential clients. The team also closed a deal on day 3 and advanced a high-potential MENA operator to late-stage discussions.
“SiGMA was incredibly successful for GR8 Tech, which confirms we’re on the right track and proves how our Platform for Champions stands out in a crowded field. Our Heavyweight Lounge became the meeting place for operators who want to go deep on strategy, margins, and market moves with purposeful, energetic, outcome-focused conversations,” said Sergey Ghazaryan, Chief Revenue Officer at GR8 Tech.
SiGMA Central Europe showcased the Heavyweight Club philosophy, inspired by GR8 Tech’s partnership with Ready To Fight by Oleksandr Usyk: champions create champions. By pairing athlete-grade preparation with operator-grade technology, GR8 Tech has grown a community of operators aligned by a code: launch first, perform under pressure, and compound advantage through the right partner.
Big Stage Energy from Behind The Gloves Experience
During the three-day conference, over 50 visitors participated in 15-minute pad-work sessions led by Lee McFarland, a British military veteran and iGaming consultant. The short power workouts transformed the GR8 Tech stand into a hub of energy that converted into productive business conversations.
“Performance is something you live, so we built an environment where attendees could experience it. Bringing Behind The Gloves to our booth embodied the discipline and drive we build into our technology,” said Yevhen Krazhan, Chief Sales Officer at GR8 Tech.
GR8 Tech’s team left Rome with disciplined follow-through and a full calendar of next steps. The Lounge and “Behind The Gloves” drove high-quality conversations, and the company will continue to improve the experience for champions at future events.

Hula Moolah
SlotMatrix turns up the heat with Powderkeg Studios’ Hula Moolah
Reading Time: < 1 minute
SlotMatrix, the world’s largest casino aggregator, is bringing the fire with the launch of Hula Moolah, an explosive new slot from Powderkeg Studios.
Set in a tropical paradise where Tiki gods rule and volcanoes erupt, Hula Moolah turns every spin into a molten-hot chance to win. The game’s centrepiece is the Hold & Spin Feature, ignited when the vibrant Tiki Wilds leap into the volcano.
The wins from the triggering spin become lava that fuels the feature, heating up rewards to new, fiery levels.
Tiki Sacrifices can appear at any time to boost adjacent multipliers and reset the number of spins, creating a chain reaction of escalating rewards. Each sacrifice upgrades nearby Lava Pools, with multipliers rising up to 25x, offering explosive potential with every spin.
The excitement continues with the Free Spin Bonus, where more Tiki Wilds join the reels to increase the odds of triggering Hold & Spin. Landing 3, 4, or 5 Bonus symbols awards up to 12 Free Spins, with retriggers keeping the heat alive.
Hula Moolah is exclusively distributed via SlotMatrix, and as with all SlotMatrix exclusive titles, is enhanced by EveryMatrix’s proprietary gamification tools, including free spins and leaderboards.
The slot can also be seamlessly integrated with EngageSuite, the all-in-one player loyalty solution.
Stephen Orchard, Head of Commercial Operations, SlotMatrix, said: “Powderkeg Studios outdid themselves with this one. Hula Moolah is pure fire. A high-impact game that blends immersive design with thrilling mechanics that deliver real intensity, making this one of our most explosive titles yet.”
Jesper Gawell, COO & CMO, Supremeland Gaming, added: “We are proud to support Powderkeg Studios in bringing Hula Moolah to life exclusively with SlotMatrix. This partnership lets us focus on bold concepts and premium execution. SlotMatrix provides the right tools to turn great games into hits.”
