Meet the talented lady responsible for GrooveGaming’s technical projects
GrooveGaming have selected a talented woman as their Technical Project Manager, Tal Gabriel, who is responsible for the technical projects of one of the biggest content platforms on planet earth.
Diversity and inclusion are major corporate priorities for GrooveGaming, especially as the company continues to expand internationally serving a wide range of clients and partners. To fulfill the company’s vision, it is vital to choose diverse talent with the current GrooveGaming workforce being approximately 70% women. Given the aggregator’s innovation profile, this is achieved and sustained by the combination of perspectives from a diverse workforce and good partners. Gender equality and women’s empowerment are a primary focus area for GrooveGaming’s diversity and inclusion initiatives.
GrooveGaming’s 6-Continents Strategy from the get-go was predicated on data empowerment and capacity-building as a transformational company that realised that by increasing local marketing capability while instilling better services, processes and disciplines centrally, would have significant appeal across the industry. Today, more-and-more international casino brands and content partners are looking to develop interesting ventures with the dynamic aggregator of choice, especially in Europe, Asia, Africa and Latin America.
As a company, GrooveGaming strives to unleash team potential and break records every day, encouraging team members to be bold and make important decisions. In this sense, Tal has a huge impact on the business, lending her problem-solving skills to the technical team to maximise technical performance at the aggregator which is attracting attention from outside the igaming community for the quality of its technology.
GrooveGaming continues to expand rapidly on the back of some of the most robust technology in the igaming industry, constantly developing functionality and improving user experience. GrooveGaming has been recognised as one of the ’10 Best Innovative Technology Solution Providers of 2020′ by IndustryEra, firmly demonstrating that the aggregator’s technology development is being acknowledged not only in the iGaming industry, but also from outside it.
While the working day has not changed enormously for the GrooveGaming development team, who are scattered in 3 major centres – Ukraine, Georgia and Israel; plus serving suppliers and clients around the world, so getting used to working remotely from home has presented some adjustments. The silence of home has led to improved productivity and Tal is coordinating internal and external communications on integrations and other projects, such as business intelligence and big-data projects for the Groove Gaming platform, with a lot of her time being spent in online meetings relaying essential information and keeping everyone in the loop.
Her motto is ‘to be a step before the others’, meaning to know what the next technical step is and then to coordinate it within the GrooveGaming ecosystem. Apart from coordinating integrations with suppliers and clients, managing timelines, allocating tasks and ensuring that every task is assigned across the 3 teams, checking the process and status of everything each hour, she is also planning infrastructural work on the platform that is focused on upgrades and improvements, particularly centred on user experience to make it better for clients and suppliers to work with and taking into account the end goal that the platform is easy to use and comfortable for all the stakeholders making use of it.
Platform development is strongly influenced by taking into account the constantly changing landscape of the iGaming space, and Tal deeply understands the system and the system structure, and it is this knowledge that helps power her team and deliver excellent internal and external service, with Tal being available 24/7 to troubleshoot any urgent requests.
All of this explains why GrooveGaming is the aggregator of choice for a host of big industry names including EveryMatrix, iGP, Digitain, GoBet, ProgressPlay, Hub88, QTech, Alea, Quickfire, Max Entertainment and BetConstruct, amongst others.
GrooveGaming’s powerful platform includes over 4000 casino games as well as a wealth of aggregated content ranging from slots, online casino and live casino, to poker and table games, that operators can access via easy integration to drive player engagement and revenue.
Tal Gabriel, GrooveGaming’s Technical Project Manager says: “We are always trying to be better, to be a step ahead of the market. GrooveGaming is a data company underpinned by big-data technologies, working at scale in the cloud and powered by artificial intelligence and machine-learning. The GrooveGaming development team has helped build significant competitive advantage from devising advanced algorithms, API development and state-of-the-art content management systems which put casino operators in total control of game offerings.”

ELA Games’ King and Flame shortlisted for Best New Game Release at SiGMA Europe Awards 2026
ELA Games’ King and Flame has been named a finalist for Best New Game Release at the 2026 SiGMA Europe Awards. The awards are scheduled to take place at the Casino Maltese in Valletta, Malta, on May 27.
The company said the nomination reflects its approach of combining narrative design with slot math models. King and Flame is positioned as a medieval fantasy Hold and Win title built around a storyline that “flips classic fantasy tropes upside down,” with a prince unleashing a Dragon Queen.
According to ELA Games, the game includes coin symbols that pay their face value, Mystery Chests that can award instant prizes or trigger the Grand Jackpot, and a “Tamed by the Crown” feature where the Dragon Queen appears as an expanding Full Reel Wild. The studio also highlighted free spins with column-expanding coins and a Super Bonus Wheel that doubles rewards.
Marharyta Yerina, Managing Director of ELA Games, said: “We’re very happy to see King and Flame get a nomination at the very well-regarded SiGMA Europe awards. I know the work everyone at the ELA team put into creating an intricate back story and graphic world for this slot. It is one of the most narrative-based titles we have released to date, and the care the team put into the design has really brought that story to life. It is wonderful to see that dedication noticed on such a prestigious stage.”
SiGMA has opened public voting for the category via its awards site.

3 Supercharged Diamonds: Hold and Win
Playson releases 3 Supercharged Diamonds: Hold and Win slot
New title adds three Diamond bonus features, a Collect Diamond mechanic and four jackpots up to 1,000x.
Playson has released a new slot title, 3 Supercharged Diamonds: Hold and Win, expanding its Hold and Win catalogue with three Diamond-driven bonus features and four jackpot prizes up to 1,000x.
The game’s Hold and Win Bonus Game uses a “3 Pots” mechanic, triggered when green, yellow or violet Diamond symbols land alongside their respective Diamonds positioned above the reels. Depending on the Diamonds that land, the bonus can activate an Expand Feature (3×5 grid), Multi Feature (multipliers on reels one and three starting at 2x and increasing up to 32x), or Stepper Feature (Bonus Diamonds remain in play and move down one position after each respin).
A Collect Diamond can land only on reel two during the Bonus Game. Playson said it holds its position for the round and accumulates the value of Bonus Diamonds that land before being applied to the Total Win at the end of the feature.
Jackpots can also land during the bonus round: Mini (15x), Minor (30x), Major (100x) and Grand (1,000x). Outside the bonus, any Diamond symbol in the Main Game can randomly trigger an Extra Diamonds Feature, which Playson said can add enough Diamonds to start the Bonus Game.
Anton Ivannikov, CPO at Playson, said: “3 Supercharged Diamonds: Hold and Win takes one of our most recognisable game mechanics and elevates it with a collection of dynamic new features designed to maximise excitement during every bonus round.
“By combining the Expand, Multi and Stepper features with the Collect Diamond and four jackpot opportunities, we have created a release that delivers strong entertainment value and varied gameplay experiences for players worldwide.”
