Slot development studio True Lab has been confirmed as the headline sponsor of iGaming NEXT: Valletta ’21, the iGaming industry’s most exclusive content-driven event, due to take place at the Mediterranean Conference Centre on the 20th and 21st of October.
True Lab, which offers a growing portfolio of next-generation slot titles to its partners, has joined forces with the team at iGaming NEXT to help it ‘Disrupt the Status Quo’ in this year’s eagerly anticipated edition of the industry-leading conference.
Igor Samardziski, who recently took the helm as True Lab’s Chief Executive Officer, joins the event’s distinguished speaker line-up alongside more than 60 iGaming experts, and will give a presentation at 13:30 CEST on Wednesday, 20th of October, on the topic of “Building Profitable Games: Creating Content for the Player & Operator”.
The session will examine player psychology, game dynamics, and the balance between user experience and operator profit, with a view to setting out how the best game content can satisfy the needs of both.
Commenting on True Lab’s sponsorship of the event, Samardziski said: “I’ve witnessed iGaming NEXT deliver highest quality of content and events within our sphere, year after year. Events have just a wholly different standard of visitors and it’s felt on the floor during the show. Future focused, iGaming NEXT is completely in line with our values and sponsoring the event was a “no-brainer” decision for True Lab”.
Pierre Lindh, co-founder and managing director of iGaming NEXT, added: “It is a pleasure for us to be working with Igor, Kate and the rest of the team at True Lab.”
“Through my discussions with Igor, it is clear that True Lab is a game studio of the future with some truly innovative ideas, which is why we make for such great partners. We are always excited to promote the true innovators of our industry!”

RTG Announces Evive Australia as the First Innovation to Take the Stage at Pitch!

Reading Time: < 1 minute
Regulating the Game (RTG) has announced Evive Australia as the first innovation to take the stage at Pitch! – part of the annual RTG gathering in Sydney in March.
The event will take place at the famous Sydney Opera House on 9 March 2026, as part of the sixth edition of the international regulatory and industry conference.
Evive is an app designed to help people change how they play or seek support for gambling harms. Created by Sam DeMello, a tech specialist drawing on his lived experience of gambling harm, and supported by Jay Robinson, a safer-gambling expert with over two decades of harm-minimisation and prevention experience, Evive Australia aims to deliver personalised tools, resources and pathways for anyone seeking to reduce risk or access help.
“Evive brings together real-world experience, clinical expertise and technology to create an accessible and credible platform for change. Pitch! was conceived to spotlight exactly these kinds of innovations – ideas that challenge convention, improve safeguards and reimagine the future of regulation and industry practice,” said Paul Newson, Principal at Vanguard Overwatch and founder of Regulating the Game.
“Evive isn’t just another app, it’s a bridge between lived experience, behavioral science and practical support. It shows that compliance and compassion can coexist, and when they do, everyone benefits. The app gives regulators and operators confidence in credible harm reduction tools, while giving people a safe, stigma free path to change,” Robinson said.
