Aggregator and platform Groove, which has secured a position as one of the world’s top-performing iGaming businesses, has announced the opening of a new global HQ in the iconic Bet Aviel Tower in Ashkelon as part of a capacity-building exercise to drive continuing rapid growth. The company also has operations in Georgia, Ukraine and Malta, employing over 100 people, which will be run from the state-of-the-art tower.

This is a very visible statement by the aggregator that it means business. Bet Aviel Tower stands out not least due to the stunning views it showcases, reaching across the city to the sea, several miles from the prestigious office location. Moreover, the iconic building and its views can be enjoyed from anywhere within due to glass partitions and the fact that all deskspace is positioned in front of the panoramic windows overlooking the vista.

The expansion will support a growing team and allow for more comprehensive support in regulated markets. Groove will continue to build a global presence to better serve its operator cluster and provide world-class facilities for its team. The company has rapidly built a powerful operator cluster around its technology and is supported by one of the strongest technical teams in the industry.

Groove’s aggregation platform provides a broad portfolio comprising thousands of games from respected international partners combined with pioneering backend tools for casino operators and is the content provider of choice for a host of big industry names including EveryMatrix, iGP, Digitain, Microgaming, ProgressPlay, Quickfire, BetConstruct Evoplay Entertainment and Alea, amongst others.

Groove’s powerful platform includes thousands of 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 from GrooveOn, an easy-to-use multifunctional back-office, which powers performance. GrooveOn has been developed to create a valuable environment for online casinos: a place where entertainment is customisable, secure and stable.

Commenting on the move to the new HQ, Yahale Meltzer, COO at Groove said: “The tech talent in Israel is incredible and this new office provides current and new team members with access to world-class facilities, enabling them to better serve our operator cluster and liaise with our content partners. Our plan is to continue to grow and get closer to our operators with superior service and place our technology in the hands of many more iGaming companies. Working in an office like this is inspiring for the whole team and we look forward to significantly growing our business here over the next couple of years.”

DR Gaming Technology (DRGT) has appointed Stephane Henault – formerly of Light & Wonder, Scientific Games and Bally’s – as its new director of technical services.

The newly created role comes amid pending deals for DRG that will see it expand in Latin America and Africa.

“This is an important appointment for DRGT as we continue to scale our operations globally,” said company CEO Marco Herrera.

“Stephane brings a wealth of technical and operational experience, as well as a deep understanding of the evolving needs of casino operators. His expertise will be instrumental in further strengthening and streamlining the services we provide to our partners.”

“I see this opportunity as the perfect way for me to re-connect with operator partners directly, leveraging the experience gained over the last three decades working for both a start-up, and of late, a massive multinational, and to contribute in a very practical way to their day-to-day success,” said Henault.

“DRGT’s current growth trajectory presents an exciting challenge, particularly in ensuring that as the business expands, its technical service delivery remains efficient, scalable, and aligned with operator requirements.

“Being part of that journey and helping to build processes and structures that support it, is hugely motivating. Right now, I wake up every morning with a spring in my step – that’s special.”
