Multi award-winning novelist Naomi Alderman is the main author of Zombies, Run!

In relation to the acquisition, Hong Kong based Keith Rumjahn, CEO, OliveX said:

“At OliveX we’re passionate about making fitness fun, and that’s exactly what Six to Start does. With average revenues per paid subscriber exceeding £25 a year, and with real growth potential, Six to Start will bring immediate value to OliveX. Most importantly though we see enormous benefit in their global, loyal, subscriber base and the team’s product design and monetisation expertise.”

Tim Cooke, Chairman, and Jo Goodson, Non Executive Director, Six to Start, said: “Adrian and his team have demonstrated the creativity and strength of the UK games industry with the globally recognised brand Zombies, Run!

“Six to Start’s story-driven games have proved incredibly popular during the pandemic-driven lockdowns now that health and fitness are on people’s minds more than ever. Post lockdowns, Six to Start will continue to help millions achieve their fun and fitness goals by combining immersive and engaging online experiences with the real world, alongside massive companies such as Zoom, which have shown how integral they have become to people’s lives.”

OliveX intends to undertake a capital raising to raise a minimum of A$6,000,000 (before costs) in the coming days which will fund its initial cash obligations under the acquisition and provide additional working capital. In addition, OliveX hold a meeting of shareholders in due course to obtain any necessary shareholder approvals (including in relation to the issue of shares and performance rights under the Acquisition).

London, July 2026 — While most affiliate networks are busy refreshing their pitch decks, HELL Partners is doing what it always does: moving on its own terms. The brand is officially heading to IGB Live 2026, one of the most influential iGaming gatherings on the calendar, and the team is bringing more than business cards.

IGB Live takes place at ExCeL London, and HELL Partners will be set up at Booth L40

— not hard to find, even harder to ignore.

What HELL Partners actually brings to the table

For those still getting acquainted with the brand: HELL Partners operates a portfolio of in-house iGaming products with conversion rates that speak before anyone in the room does. There are no restrictions on traffic sources — affiliates run what works, full stop. And with a GEO pool spanning Tier 1 through Tier 3 markets, the network offers the kind of scale that keeps serious webmasters interested long-term. Besides, there’s a new brand coming soon, further expanding the opportunities.

Clean terms, open sources, full creative control. The infrastructure is built to perform—and let partners do the same.

What’s waiting at the stand

HELL Partners isn’t flying to London to shake hands and collect LinkedIn connections. The managers on-site will be ready to sit down, open the laptop, and structure a deal worth talking about — tailored, specific, and built around your traffic.

Also at the stand: a Prada giveaway. Three items. Real ones. The mechanics are simple — follow HELL Partners on Instagram and Telegram, stop by Stand L40, and get entered. The kind of brand energy that makes sense when you think about who HELL Partners is building this for.

And one more thing making the trip to London: an exclusive merch collection, designed specifically for IGB Live. Not a reprint, not leftovers — something made for this exact moment. Come see it at the stand.

The VIP event — for the VIP Inner Circle

Beyond the floor, HELL Partners is hosting a closed evening for top partners and industry voices. An exclusive private screening of The Devil Wears Prada 2, complete with a session from a film critic who actually knows what they’re talking about. Details are confirmed for those already in the circle — and for those who aren’t yet, a conversation at the stand is the right place to start.

It’s the kind of move that says: HELL Partners treats its partners the way the industry should have been treating them all along.
