BetGames.TV appoints Thomas Aigner as new Head of Sales
Emerging markets expert set to lead supplier’s 2021 global expansion
BetGames.TV, the leading live dealer betting games supplier, has appointed Thomas Aigner as Head of Sales, augmenting the company’s ambitious 2021 expansion plans.
Thomas joins from Playtech Sports, where he was Regional Director Emerging Markets and was instrumental in introducing the leading supplier’s Quantum Sports Platform at ICE 2020.
Alongside his pioneering work in supporting the company’s portfolio of operators across emerging markets, including LatAm, Africa and CEE, Thomas has developed a proven track record of expertise across the global omni-channel.
His experience will be warmly welcomed by the supplier, with his new role set to oversee the development and execution of the award-winning studio’s sales strategy for existing and new markets – as well as managing the continued provision of BetGames.TV’s world-class service.
Thomas’s appointment follows an outstanding year for BetGames.TV, which saw the studio nominated for seven SBC Awards, as well as winning ‘Leader of the Year’ and ‘Live Casino Supplier’ in December.
Andreas Koeberl, BetGames.TV CEO, sees Thomas’s appointment as a true asset for the studio, given his extensive experience across scaling major games verticals across global markets.
He added: “Welcoming Thomas on board is a real coup for us. His experience and industry insight will no doubt prove invaluable for all of us at BetGames.TV – and I’m very excited to get started together.
“His hands-on mentality, authenticity and reliability are just the kind of values we encourage here, so he’ll fit right in as we continue our expansion globally.”
Thomas Aigner, Head of Sales at BetGames.TV, said: “I’m extremely eager to get started in this new challenge and help accelerate the great growth and success story of Betgames.TV, particularly in emerging markets.
“It’s a great pleasure for me to be part of this team, with a host of award-winning products, more of which are coming in the near future. I have no doubt they will strengthen our position, keep us unique and most importantly – at the forefront of new developments.”
Pioneering in its ability to boost player engagement and operator revenue, BetGames.TV is able to offer a winning combination of low-spend and extended playing sessions for players, as well as far greater margins than competing products across live dealer, lottery and casino.
With licences issued by multiple jurisdictions including the UKGC, MGA, Italy, and various South African gambling authorities, as well as Swedish and Colombian licences expected shortly, BetGames.TV is the ‘go to’ supplier of choice for live dealer products across global regulated markets.

HIPTHER is thrilled to reveal Lex Legas as a Strategic Partner for the HIPTHER Baltics conference series, which includes Vilnius, Riga, and Tallinn. The collaboration incorporates LexLegas’s extensive knowledge in cross-border regulation, compliance, and high-risk legal structures into the targeted Baltic series.
Updated Date for Riga – Baltic Tech Week
The date for the Riga conference has been officially updated to 11 May 2026 (instead of the previously stated 12 May). The conference will remain the inaugural event of Baltic Tech Week in Riga.
After a robust debut set for 21 April 2026 in Vilnius, and prior to the Tallinn edition later in the series, HIPTHER Baltics: Riga strengthens HIPTHER’s dedication to locally anchored, high-quality discussions throughout the Baltic region, uniting regulatory, legal, fintech, and gaming participants around the most significant issues.
A Tactical Alignment: Lex Legas
Lex Legas is a specialized legal consultancy and research-oriented legal brand focusing on iGaming, fintech, payments, AML/CTF, and international regulatory frameworks, emphasizing Baltic, EU, and high-risk regions.
Integrating practical legal experience with regulatory investigation and strategic guidance, Lex Legas collaborates closely with operators, payment processors, software vendors, and international advisors engaged in regulated and semi-regulated sectors. Their expertise spans:
- iGaming & betting regulation (EU & non-EU jurisdictions)
- AML/CTF frameworks, risk assessments, and compliance structuring
- Payment solutions, PSP integrations, and fintech regulatory analysis
- Licensing, corporate structuring, and operational legal support
- Regulatory trends, enforcement practices, and supervisory expectations
- Cross-border legal risk management for high-risk business models
“At Lex Legas, we work daily at the intersection of regulation, technology, and high-risk business models, exactly where today’s iGaming, fintech, and payments industries are being shaped.
HIPTHER Baltics stands out as a rare platform that goes beyond surface-level discussions and creates space for real, jurisdiction-specific conversations around compliance, licensing, player protection, and operational risk.
Partnering with HIPTHER for the Baltics series feels like a natural extension of our mission: translating complex regulatory frameworks into practical, business-ready solutions. We’re excited to contribute our research-driven perspective and hands-on experience to the dialogue in Vilnius, Riga, and Tallinn, and to help shape meaningful cross-border discussions across the region in 2026” – The Legal Experts of “Lex Legas” Team
HIPTHER Baltics 2026 – Three Capitals, One Vision
The HIPTHER Baltics series brings HIPTHER’s signature focus on regulation, compliance, fintech, and innovation to the heart of the Baltic region through three targeted, one-day conferences each hosted in a Baltic capital and built around locally-relevant themes with regional and cross-border impact.
“HIPTHER Baltics is built as a focused conference series for the region — not just a one-off event. From Vilnius to Riga and Tallinn, our goal is to create a high-level platform where regulators, legal experts, fintech leaders, and gaming stakeholders can connect around the real topics shaping the market: compliance, licensing, payments, player protection, and cross-border operations.
That’s why partnering with Lex Legas feels like a perfect match. Their research-driven approach and hands-on expertise in iGaming, fintech, and regulatory frameworks across the Baltics and beyond brings exactly the depth and clarity we want to deliver through the entire series. We’re proud to welcome them as a Strategic Partner and look forward to building meaningful, practical conversations together in 2026.” — Zoltan “Hawkie” Tundik, Co-Founder & Head of Business, HIPTHER
