Business Intelligence a key aspect of optimising player marketing strategy

Real Luck Group Ltd. and its subsidiary companies doing business as “Luckbox”, an award-winning provider of licensed, real money esports and sports betting, is pleased to announce the appointment of David Conde as its new Head of Data.

Mr Conde, whose previous roles include telecommunications company Ericsson and iGaming companies like MoPlay and Gaming1, will oversee Luckbox’s business intelligence efforts, including optimising customer acquisition and retention campaigns: a key aspect of player marketing efforts, which is on track to commence by the end of the year.

Real Luck Group CEO Thomas Rosander said: “At Luckbox, we are striving to offer players a 3.0 betting experience and having superior business intelligence is an important part of that, so we are delighted to have David on board with us. With sophisticated use of data and AI, we are able to offer each player a highly customised experience, so that everyone feels like a VIP. As we strive to build a scalable business to become a dominant player in the space, David is an important addition to the team and his skillset will help us drive revenues through increased conversion on acquisitions and higher customer retention levels.”

Mr Conde said: “The use of data analytics solutions in the iGaming industry is key for optimizing the business. We have moved from an environment where a few traditional bookmakers dominated the sports betting and casino scene to a context where the number of competitors makes it impossible to participate without a data-driven approach. Analytics modelling is key in all the areas of the business ranging from marketing, fraud to customer support and operations. Decisions must be made based on data and the fact that most of the events are tracked as data points is something that we should take advantage of. Last but not least, the fact of having so much information should be used to provide the best customer experience based on their preferences and behaviour.”

BVGroup’s flagship brand BetVictor has launched a new brand campaign, “For All Your Favourite Things”, backed by what the company said is its largest AV investment to date.

The campaign, created by Barn Door Studios, uses a rewrite of “My Favourite Things” from The Sound of Music over visuals of sporting events. BetVictor said the creative focuses on “the uncomplicated thrill of sport and betting”.

BetVictor is timing the launch around this weekend’s Premier League schedule, with spots running alongside Arsenal vs Newcastle on Saturday evening and Chelsea vs Leeds on Sunday afternoon.

Media planning is led by Bountiful Cow. The plan includes a new partnership with Sky, spanning live sport integrations, on-demand, YouTube channels and targeted digital placements via Sky Advance. BetVictor also outlined a data-led SVOD and BVOD strategy across ITVX, Channel 4, Prime Video and Netflix, plus digital and social.

Richard Walters, Director of Brand and Creative at BetVictor, said:

“‘For All Your Favourite Things’ captures what BetVictor stands for today – a premium, straightforward experience that enhances the thrill of sport.

When done right, we believe that gambling is a simple pleasure; one that we love connecting our customers to. We wanted to celebrate the moments that matter most to sports fans.”

QTech Games has won the Leader in Online Casino award at the Annual Sports Betting East Africa (SBEA+) 2026 Summit in Nairobi, Kenya.

The company said it beat other shortlisted suppliers including SA Gaming, BetConstruct, and DST Gaming. The award is described by the event as recognising the “top all-round online casino platform for innovation, user engagement, and sustained growth” over the past year.

The SBEA+ Eventus Awards focus on the East African igaming and sports betting sector and were presented at a gala ceremony at the Argyle Grand Hotel. QTech Games said the judging period covered 2025/26 and that its aggregation platform performance was ranked highest by the panel.

QTech Games CEO Philip Doftvik said: “We’re thrilled to have walked off with another notable award for the best overall online-casino-platform provision in East Africa. Being shortlisted in such good company was already a result, but victory provides the real validation, particularly after running a great campaign at recent Eventus events in Africa. We’ve been promoting QTech Hybrid, our breakthrough retail solution, to great effect and it’s been fantastic to see that going live with a handful of top-tier clients on this continent has led to such overwhelmingly positive feedback and immediate success cases in the realm of genuine innovation.

“This win is testimony to our diligent team at QTech Games, and to the constantly growing group of innovative suppliers that our platform represents. It’s a truly collaborative effort. We remain committed to rolling out high-quality content that drives revenue for our worldwide partners across Africa and beyond. After all, in today’s marketplace, only premium games of the highest standard will separate you from the crowd, so we were delighted to see the panel acknowledge how our premier platform is delivering across Africa’s eclectic ecosystem. We’ve made our name as the pre-eminent aggregator in these evolving margin markets, delivering localised games that speak to a host of player proclivities. This award win will spur us on to new horizons.”
