EPIC Global Solutions to Spread Problem Gambling Awareness via William Hill-SPFL Deal

EPIC Global Solutions is looking forward to bringing gambling harm awareness to the players, staff and supporters at all Scottish Professional Football League (SPFL) clubs from the start of the 2024/25 season.

The global experts in mitigating against gambling-related harm will be extending their considerable sporting reach by working across all four divisions of Scotland’s professional soccer structure, delivering a series of predominantly face-to-face sessions that will allow audiences to learn from the lived experience of those who have faced problem gambling first hand.

The arrangement comes as part of the new five-year deal which sees William Hill become the title sponsor and official betting partner of the Premiership down to League 2, meaning that every club from reigning top-flight champions Celtic all the way through to recently-reprieved Stranraer in the fourth tier will get the chance to welcome EPIC’s globally-renowned team.

Thanks to backing from the competition’s sponsor, SkyBet, EPIC has engaged with more than 12,000 players across England’s EFL over the past six seasons, as well as delivering education to clubs across leading competitions around the world in recent years, such as the MLS and Belgium’s Jupiler Pro League.

However, this considerable expansion into the Scottish game is the first of its kind to encompass the entire competition across the country, coming hot on the heels of EPIC’s recent delivery to both men’s and women’s teams at Glasgow giants Rangers, and it will also be the first formal arrangement in which supporters will be directly engaged through each club’s community trust, to further extend the message’s reach.

The company’s mix of education, training and consultancy has also benefited leading organisations in other sports, working extensively across Britain’s rugby union, horse racing and cricket landscape, as well as having arrangements with the NCAA, NFL Players Association PAF, MLB and MLSPA in the US.

John Millington, senior director at EPIC Global Solutions, said:

“We’re proud that we’ve once again been seen as the perfect partner to raise awareness around problem gambling issues and we’re grateful to William Hill and the SPFL for bringing this opportunity together. We look forward to engaging with new audiences in Scotland from next season and helping to minimize the risks that gambling can pose in a high-risk sector like elite sport.

“The new partnership between William Hill and the SPFL follows the recommendations we shared when we released our Gambling Harm Review in Sport white paper in February 2023.

“In that report, guided by experts from the world of elite sport and the gambling ecosystem, we advised that in order to safeguard against the potential for sports betting harm, any new sponsorship agreement between gambling operators and sports organizations should have measures built in, such as education or awareness campaigns, to try and prevent problem gambling. This new arrangement does exactly that, for the benefit of players, staff and supporters in Scottish football, who can all learn from our distinct lived experience-based approach and create an open culture within clubs to talk about the issue.”

To mark the launch of the 100th brand in 2025, SOFTSWISS, an international technology provider with over 15 years in the iGaming sector, will host a unique live show at SiGMA Central Europe 2025: the pit-stop-style assembly of a sports car, which will be gifted to the client behind the milestone brand on the final event day. This will be the first time a real vehicle is assembled live on the floor of an iGaming expo.

Over the three days of the event, a professional crew will assemble an Alfa Romeo 4C Launch Edition in real time, transforming SOFTSWISS Stand 4015 into a high-performance pit lane. This full-scale build sets a new bar for experiential engagement in the iGaming industry, giving attendees the opportunity to take part in assembling a sports car themselves. 

During the show, professional mechanics will demonstrate how racing technology mirrors the architecture behind SOFTSWISS solutions: real-time analytics, scalable platforms, and automation. This three-day showcase will conclude with a symbolic moment – the gifting of the completed vehicle to the SOFTSWISS partner who launched the 100th brand on the company’s software in 2025. The ceremony starts on 6th November at 13:00 at Stand 4015.

“We believe every milestone is a shared success. Launching 100 new brands this year within the SOFTSWISS ecosystem shows the trust our partners place in us, and we’re proud to celebrate this moment together. This car represents precision, collaboration, and speed, the very values that define both racing and iGaming,” said Olga Resiga, Chief Business Development Officer at SOFTSWISS. “But more than that, this live build is a statement: we don’t just talk about innovation, we put it on display – in motion, in real time, and in front of the entire industry.”

Another major moment of the show will be the unveiling of the 2026 iGaming Trends Report – one of the industry’s most anticipated releases. Created in collaboration with NEXT.io, the report will offer a comprehensive outlook on the technology, regulatory shifts, and market dynamics shaping the industry. 

The launch will take place on 5 November from 12:00 to 16:00 CET during the 2026 iGaming Trends Marathon by SOFTSWISS at Stage 2: People, Partners & Performance. The four-hour programme will bring together global experts for keynote sessions and panel discussions covering key challenges and opportunities for the year ahead – from regulatory evolution and player engagement to platform scalability and AI-powered operations. Pre-registration for early access to the full report is now open.
