Betsson Group has been recognised with the Trend Global Customer Excellence Award 2025, an international accolade presented by one of the Group’s strategic cybersecurity partners to organisations demonstrating strong collaboration, measurable impact and operational excellence across the cybersecurity landscape.
In its motivation, Trend Global highlighted Betsson’s partnership-driven approach. Martin Fribrock, Country Director Sweden, Finland and Baltics, commented: “Delivering remarkable outcomes and building partnerships that create measurable impact. Honest. Thoughtful. Courageously challenging. Always striving to grow, to raise the standard and to help our team and company do the same, because excellence is never an accident, it is a commitment.”
The award places Betsson Group among globally recognised organisations previously acknowledged within the programme, including Bridgestone, Panasonic, SAP, Dole and Accor.
The recognition reflects Betsson Group’s continued focus on building a secure, resilient and well-governed digital ecosystem across its international operations. Cybersecurity remains a strategic priority, underpinned by sustained investment in advanced threat intelligence, proactive risk management and modern security architecture designed to protect customers, partners and employees.
Donald Tabone, Chief Information Security Officer at Betsson Group, said: “Operational security is a business imperative and a shared responsibility. We work closely with our partners to continuously strengthen our defences, challenge our processes and evolve our capabilities. This recognition reflects the dedication of our teams and our commitment to maintaining high standards of cybersecurity across the Group.”
As digital ecosystems continue to evolve in complexity, Betsson Group remains focused on strengthening its cybersecurity posture as a core pillar of responsible growth. Recognition such as this reinforces the importance of strong collaboration, continuous improvement and disciplined governance in safeguarding a sustainable and secure business.

Octoplay Expands in Italy with StarCasinò, Betsson Group’s Top-Ranked Local Brand
Octoplay is now live with StarCasinò, Betsson Group’s premier Italian casino brand, advancing its expansion in one of the world’s largest gambling markets. StarCasinò joins PokerStars and Sisal as the supplier’s third tier-one Italian integration in four months, underscoring Octoplay’s accelerating momentum. As global operators like Betsson Group continue to partner with Octoplay, the supplier is rapidly establishing itself as an emerging power in B2B gaming, backed by the industry’s most established names.
The StarCasinò partnership follows a clear pattern of acceleration in Italy. In January 2026, Octoplay went live with PokerStars and Sisal simultaneously, with StarCasinò now extending that run alongside a wider European rollout that includes recent launches with bet365 in the UK, Luckia in Spain, and Adjarabet in Georgia. Since Ralitsa Georgieva’s appointment as CEO, Octoplay has delivered a series of high-profile integrations across Europe’s most competitive regulated markets, demonstrating the strategic vision driving the company’s growth.
“StarCasinò is the third tier-one operator we have gone live with in Italy in the past months, and it reflects the pace at which we are building our presence in one of Europe’s most dynamic markets,” says Ralitsa Georgieva, CEO at Octoplay. “Betsson Group has set the standard for a high-performing casino brand in Italy, and the trust they have placed in our content reflects the quality we are delivering across the industry’s top operators.”
Fabio Denegri, Business Director Italy at Betsson Group, stated: “In the constant evolution of gaming, our priority remains the introduction of content that stands out for innovation and performance. Welcoming Octoplay means injecting pure energy into our offering: their titles are a perfect blend of fresh mechanics and cutting-edge design. We are confident that Octoplay’s content will resonate with Italian players, further strengthening our position as a benchmark for innovation in the regulated market.”
Octoplay holds active licenses in 17 jurisdictions, including the United Kingdom, Italy, Spain, Sweden, the Netherlands, Denmark, Belgium, Finland, Greece, Romania, Malta, Slovakia, Georgia, Brazil, New Jersey, Michigan, and Ontario. Less than three years after going live, the company continues to expand its presence with tier-one operators across Europe, North America, and South America.
