The former Oracle and Adobe Campaign Sales Director brings 20 years of sales experience and will lead the company’s expansion into the French market

Optimove, the leading CRM Marketing Platform, announced today the appointment of Jeremy Remus as the company’s Head of France, overseeing sales and growth of the company’s French operation. The selection indicates Optimove’s rapid growth and determination to expand into new markets.

Jeremy started his sales career in 2003 at Neolane, a conversational marketing company. Neolane recorded annual revenue of just under $60 million and, in 2013, was acquired by Adobe for $600 million, being rebranded as Adobe Campaign and appointing Jeremy as Sales Director. In his most recent role, Jeremy was the VP of Sales, France at Mediarithmics, a next-gen Data Management Platform.

In his new role, Jeremy will oversee Optimove’s sales operation in France and spearhead the company’s expansion into the French market, establishing a dedicated team and a new location for the business, in addition to the company’s existing USA, United Kingdom and Israel offices.

With a Customer Data Platform (CDP) at its core, Optimove helps data-rich brands across industries manage large-scale CRM marketing frameworks. By personalizing thousands of campaigns to hundreds of segments, Optimove allows brands to reach their customers with the right message on the right channel. Unlike other technologies that rely on common, rule-based orchestration, Optimove’s AI-driven solutions autonomously determine the next best action for each customer, eliminating marketers’ need to map every customer journey manually.

In the past 12 months, Optimove has continued its strong momentum, and its CRM Marketing platform has been recognized by research firms and customers alike:

Named a Leader in The Forrester Wave™: Cross-Channel Campaign Management.
Recognized as a Challenger in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Multichannel Marketing Hubs.
Received a 4.5/5.0 “Overall Score” and 95% “Willingness to Recommend” by clients on Gartner Peer Insights.
Positioned as a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Retail and CPG Customer Data Platform 2022 Vendor Assessment.

“We’re excited to welcome Jeremy to Optimove, to lead the company’s French operation,” said Moshe Demri, VP Revenue EMEA at Optimove.” Jeremy is a crucial addition to the team as we make our first steps toward expanding into the burgeoning French market. We are confident Jeremy’s experience and knowledge will enable us to make significant gains there. The French market needs a CDP solution that can provide an edge in addition to tangible and quantified evidence of success. Optimove, which is time and again recognized as a leader in the category, is the perfect solution for brands looking to transform their CRM Marketing strategies.”

“I’m excited to join Optimove and play a major role in the company’s expansion into the French market,” said Jeremy Remus. “I’m humbled and motivated by the trust vested in me by Optimove. The French market is very much a value and data-driven one, and it needs a tech solution that can provide substantial results for brands’ CRM Marketing activities. Knowing the French market inside and out, I’m confident that Optimove, which combines CDP with an AI-led CRM Marketing hub, will perfectly fit brands across all verticals. I look forward to the challenge of developing meaningful partnerships and helping the French market improve CRM Marketing practices and customer experiences.”

Optimove’s expansion into France continues its business acceleration strategy stemming from its latest funding round.

Soft2Bet, a leading iGaming turnkey solutions provider, recently brought together industry connections for an exclusive two-day golf and padel experience at the Gleneagles Hotel in Scotland. The event brought Soft2Bet’s friends and connections together to enjoy a relaxed day of golf and padel, meaningful conversations, and shared moments in an inspiring setting, celebrating the spirit of connection and community that defines the company’s approach.

Set against the backdrop of one of Scotland’s best-known sporting estates, the day paired competitive play with the camaraderie and shared spirit that are such a valued part of the game. Attendees enjoyed access to Gleneagles’ most exclusive Ryder Cup & Solheim courses, where the relaxed setting encouraged genuine connection and reflected the supportive atmosphere that made the gathering especially memorable.

Gleneagles was a fitting venue for the occasion. With more than a century of golfing history, three championship courses and a reputation built on world-class hospitality, it remains one of Scotland’s standout golf destinations. Its PGA Centenary Course hosted the 2014 Ryder Cup and the 2019 Solheim Cup, making Gleneagles the only golfing destination in Europe to have staged both events.

The event reflects Soft2Bet’s belief that strong connections are built through shared goals, trust and collaboration. Creating space for in-person connection allows the company to deepen those relationships and support long-term success.

Harrison Barrett, VP of Business Development at Soft2Bet, commented: “Bringing the industry together in a setting like Gleneagles allows us to go beyond day-to-day operations and focus on what truly drives success, while playing golf and padel. Events like this are an opportunity to align on vision, exchange ideas and celebrate the momentum.”

Stuart Trigwell, Director of Business Development at Play’n GO said: “The time spent at Gleneagles, enjoying the incredible courses and engaging in genuine, strategic conversations, was an absolute highlight. It is events like these that reinforce the trust and collaborative spirit at the core of our relations.”

The gathering reflects Soft2Bet’s wider approach to the iGaming community engagement, creating opportunities for stronger collaboration and supporting growth across key markets.

Set against a striking desert backdrop, players encounter iconic wildlife symbols, including buffalo, eagles, and wolves.

Landing three Bonus symbols on reels one, three, and five triggers the Buffalo Bonus Wheel, offering Grand, Major, Minor, and Mini prize pots, as well as the enhanced Ultra Mode, which adds two extra rows to the grid.

Randomly, the Wild Buffalo Herd feature may activate to transform symbols into wilds and upgrade existing wilds to Wild x2, ratcheting up the excitement. Meanwhile, landing five or more coins triggers the Ultra Hold and Win feature, expanding the grid to 5×8 and raising the potential for massive payouts. Players who fill the extended grid capture the Grand Prize Pot, worth 2,000x their bet.

The intensity ramps up further with the Ultra Reel, unlocked by stacking a full 1×8 reel during Ultra Hold and Win. This dramatic addition multiplies or adds coin values to the rows below, pushing the game’s payout potential to a staggering 5,000x.

April will see Booming Games continue its high-octane release schedule with six new titles, including Fly On! and Fish Tales Monster Bass 10,000, boasting innovative features and maximum wins of 5,000x and 10,000x, respectively.
