Scott Smith has been appointed Non-Executive Director of Racecourse Media Group (RMG), the umbrella organisation for 35 British racecourse shareholders and parent company of Racing TV. He will join the RMG Board on October 1, 2023

Smith is Chief Financial Officer at England & Wales Cricket Board (ECB) and brings to the role over two decades of experience in financial leadership across sectors spanning sport, property, construction and consultancy.

Prior to his appointment at the ECB, Smith was the Chief Financial Officer for the America’s Cup and, previous to that, Finance Director of A1GP World Cup of Motorsport.

Smith, whose achievements extend to having climbed some of the world’s most notorious mountains and completing the “4 Deserts” endurance series, said: “I am delighted to be joining the RMG Board at a time when increasing the returns for its shareholder racecourses has never been more important. In such a dynamic and fast-moving industry, I look forward to helping drive innovation and developing growth opportunities for the sport of horse racing”.

Conor Grant, who succeeds Roger Lewis as Chairman of the RMG Board on October 1, said: “I am delighted to welcome Scott to the Racecourse Media Group board. Scott’s experience of many sectors, especially sport, will help shape our business and ensure we are maximising exposure and returns for our shareholder racecourses – and therefore the sport itself.

“I would also like to take this opportunity to thank and pay tribute to Roger Lewis for such an effective and successful stewardship of RMG. Roger has been on the Board for well over a decade, first as a Board member and then Chairman, and has been instrumental in the development and success of RMG and its businesses over the last decade or so. We wish him all the very best for the future.”

Roger Lewis said: “It has been a great privilege and hugely enjoyable to have served on the RMG Board since 2012. I pay tribute to the RMG team for delivering such great results over the years and I congratulate the vision of the RMG racecourses for creating and sustaining such a brilliant model for racing. Under Conor’s chairmanship I am confident that RMG will continue to deliver the best possible results for our racecourses for years to come.”

Atlaslive Integrates Altenar Sportsbook to Expand Platform Capabilities for Operators

Published

on

The B2B iGaming platform provider adds an award-winning sportsbook solution to its technology ecosystem, giving operators more flexibility ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Atlaslive announces the integration of Altenar’s fully managed sportsbook into its platform ecosystem. The partnership brings one of the industry’s most established sportsbook providers into Atlaslive’s technology stack, expanding the range of sportsbook configurations available to operators across the LATAM region.

Altenar is an award-winning sportsbook provider operating across more than 50 regulated jurisdictions, with licences from the UKGC, MGA, AGCO, and other major regulators. Most recently, the company was named Best Online Sportsbook Provider at the SiGMA South America Awards 2026 in São Paulo—building on its Sportsbook Supplier of the Year recognition at the SBC Awards Latinoamérica 2024.

The integration gives Atlaslive powered operators the option to deploy Altenar’s sportsbook technology alongside Atlaslive’s existing platform infrastructure. Operators can select the sportsbook configuration that best matches their market positioning, regulatory requirements, and player acquisition strategy, rather than being limited to a single-stack approach.

The timing is deliberate. With the 2026 FIFA World Cup approaching, demand for high-performance, scalable sportsbook solutions is set to peak. For operators, the tournament window is one of the highest-traffic periods in the sports betting cycle, and the ability to choose a battle-tested sportsbook within a familiar platform environment reduces both technical risk and time to market.

“Giving operators real choice in how they build their sportsbook is a competitive advantage—for them and for us. Altenar’s track record across regulated markets and their depth in risk management and trading make them the right partner to start with,” said Volodymyr Taftai, Country Director for Brazil, Atlaslive. “We’re expanding our platform into a multi-sportsbook ecosystem because that’s what operators in today’s market need: flexibility without compromise on quality.”

Frederico Caputi, Senior Sales Manager  at Altenar, added: “We are pleased to partner with Atlaslive to bring our sportsbook technology to their operator network. This integration allows us to reach new markets through a platform built for scale, while giving operators access to our fully managed sportsbook product, including live betting, risk management, and a deep sports content offering.”

Atlaslive provides a proprietary iGaming platform built to optimize the operations of sportsbook and casino businesses. The company is built around long-term operator partnerships, product-led growth, and full-stack platform delivery.

R. Franco Digital has launched Crash Raiders, a new crash-style game that uses a grid format instead of traditional reels and paylines.

In Crash Raiders, players move across a grid to uncover prizes while avoiding traps that end the run. Each successful step increases the prize pot, and players can choose to cash out at any point or continue for a higher return.

The game includes four modes. Normal Mode lets players customise grid size, prizes and traps. Turbo Mode uses pre-selected routes for faster play, while Mystery and Mystery Turbo Modes apply full randomness to routes and outcomes.

Crash Raiders also adds an Extra Life mechanic that allows a player to revive once per game after hitting a trap, keeping accumulated winnings in play.

Javier Sacristán Franco, International Business Director at R. Franco Digital, said: “With Crash Raiders, we set out to create a highly engaging hybrid experience that blends strategy with high volatility gameplay. By giving players control over risk and path selection, we deliver a dynamic format that captures the excitement of every decision.”
