SKS365, MARTIN (CEO): “THREE WAYS TO LOOK BEYOND THE EMERGENCY: INNOVATING THE OFFER, SUPPORTING RETAIL, INVESTING IN PEOPLE”
The head of Company that owns Planetwin365 brand spoke about the Italian market during day 1 of SBC Digital Summit: “It is especially in times of crisis that identity and values are rediscovered. We focus on technological and human potential to start out more aware than before”
CEO of SKS365, Alexander Martin, was among the protagonists of the day 1 of the SBC Digital Summit, a virtual five days convention that will see – starting from today until 1st of May – the main exponents of the international betting and gaming market together to understand how to face the crisis caused by the pandemic from Covid-19.
“The post-Coronavirus restart is in itself a bet and one of the most complex that the whole sector has ever had to face. But every crisis – said Martin – brings with it opportunities. In this case, such opportunities lie in improving and broadening the product offering while developing a next generation multichannel identity.”
Martin was a speaker on this first day of the meeting, during the panel Off The bench – What is there to bet on?, during which he talked about leadingSKS365 through the month of restrictions and lockdown, the possible scenarios for the industry once restrictions are relaxed and how SKS365 is reacting both at company and at brand level.
“There are three essential, pillars to follow: offer, retail, people. We worked on our brand, Planetwin365, focusing on enhancing the digital offer, through new features, new products and strategic partnerships with very important providers in the online gaming market. Following the new trends in the field of TV consumption and gaming offerings, our offer has expanded to include lifestyle and entertainment events, in addition to the extremely expanding trend of eSports. In parallel with the brand activity – Martin added, talking about retailers – A specific line of communication has been dedicated to updating the customers of the retail network, in view of the reopening of the Planetwin365 shops. The dialogue with our first and most important ambassadors on the whole Italian territory led to a series of initiatives launched to provide them guidance and support during the lockdown, new product development and specific Opening Safety Kits getting provided to the entire network, making them able to safety reopen and protect both themselves and our customers from the first day on which it will be allowed.”
During the comparison, which took place in live streaming and put some relevant players on the international market in virtual connection, Martin also referred to the third fundamental aspect of the corporate strategy to strengthen its identity and face the crisis, the human capital:
“Like many firms we needed to quickly transition to a new way of working which meant ensuring that all of our employees have the necessary technical equipment, logistical support and, above all, working l conditions to ensure that business operations continued. In a similar nature, we continued with the roll out of our people initiatives which is the ongoing committed investment in our staff, as an example we launched an our first on-line learning platform to ensure we our people had the ongoing development opportunities for both their role as well as personal interests (from language courses to yoga training, passing through leadership seminars, software courses up to music lessons).“

Behind the Gloves
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.”
