Gaming Innovation Group signs new deal with Starcasino in Spain
Gaming Innovation Group Inc. (GiG) continues to strengthen its presence in the Spanish iGaming market following the signing of an agreement with Starcasino Group for its leading platform and sportsbook.
This new alliance, the 14th now in operation for GiG technology in Spain, will allow Starcasino to enter the large and highly competitive Spanish market. Having secured both sports and casino licenses in the jurisdiction, Starcasino will take advantage of GiG’s unique experience and presence in the country. Indeed, the online Spanish market generates more than €800 million of GGR on a yearly basis, with casino and sports representing 90% of that figure.
Starcasino is one of the largest regulated online and landbased casino groups in Belgium, and carries with it a strong reputation at driving personalised experiences for casino players.
The agreement which has been signed for an initial period of 3 years will look to harness the capabilities of both GiG’s sportsbook and player account manager (PAM), which are focused on delivering excellent localised and personal casino journeys and strong sports margins in competitive and regulated markets.
Hervé Schlosser, Managing Director of Sportnco Gaming at GiG, said “I am really pleased to have signed this partnership with Starcasino, to power their entry into the appealing Spanish market. I am convinced that our combined sportsbook, platform technology and regulatory experience is well suited to help established operators like Starcasino power into new regulated markets.”
Alejandro Casanova, Country Manager for Starcasino Spain said: “We feel very pleased to have reached an agreement with the GIG Group. After many years of work and success in Belgium we have initiated our expansion to other markets, in Spain we have selected GIG Group’s technologies to successfully face the challenges of this market.”

Amilton Noble
Amilton Noble é anunciado como Advisory Partner da Betshield
A Betshield anunciou a chegada de Amilton Noble como Advisory Partner. O executivo passa a integrar o núcleo estratégico da companhia em um momento de maior exigência operacional para operadores licenciados no mercado brasileiro de apostas.
A movimentação ocorre em paralelo a uma mudança relevante na forma como o setor vem sendo avaliado. Além do acompanhamento regulatório, decisões judiciais recentes passaram a considerar não apenas a existência de políticas formais de proteção ao usuário, mas a capacidade das plataformas de demonstrar monitoramento contínuo e atuação preventiva diante de comportamentos de risco.
A Evolução para o Conceito de “Trust & Protection”
Reconhecida por sua atuação pioneira em tecnologia de Jogo Responsável, a Betshield acompanha essa evolução ampliando sua presença dentro das operações de iGaming. A empresa passa a estruturar sua proposta como uma camada permanente de confiança e proteção operacional, incorporando:
-
Gestão de risco.
-
Controles internos.
-
Capacidade de comprovação de diligência.
Liderança e Experiência
Amilton Noble possui trajetória consolidada na indústria de jogos, loterias e iGaming. Como Advisory Partner, contribuirá para o posicionamento institucional da empresa e para a consolidação de práticas operacionais mais estruturadas no ambiente regulado. Para Noble, o setor entra em uma nova etapa de maturidade:
“A maturidade do mercado passa pela capacidade de demonstrar diligência. Não é apenas uma discussão sobre licença, mas sobre responsabilidade operacional. O operador precisará apresentar evidências de acompanhamento e atuação preventiva. A tecnologia passa a ser parte da proteção da própria empresa.”
Um Novo Posicionamento de Mercado
Thiago Iusim, fundador e CEO da Betshield, afirma que o momento representa uma evolução de posicionamento:
“O Jogo Responsável sempre foi o nosso ponto de partida. Mas percebemos cedo que era necessário ir além da funcionalidade isolada. O mercado passou a exigir capacidade de demonstrar diligência operacional. Estruturamos o conceito de Trust & Protection: uma camada permanente entre operador, regulador e usuário.”
A tecnologia da Betshield realiza monitoramento contínuo de comportamento, identifica padrões de risco e gera histórico documentado de atuação preventiva. A plataforma também incorporou um módulo de prevenção à lavagem de dinheiro (PLD), ampliando o escopo de proteção.
Recentemente, a Betshield também anunciou uma parceria estratégica com a CGS Events, colocando a proteção do jogador como tema central da agenda de eventos em 2026.
