Tiina Siltanen, recently appointed Vice Chair of the European Casino Association and General Manager, Casino Helsinki and Tampere is the latest industry thought leader to focus on the importance of February’s full-scale edition of ICE London, underlining its importance to the development of the international industry post-Covid.

Focusing on the power of adopting a collective response to the challenges, opportunities and responsibilities that face the industry she said: “The 2023 creative of ‘Stronger Together’ really captures the industry mood certainly from my perspective and that of colleagues. February’s ICE will mark the return of the major supplier brands that we missed in April 2022 and that sense of solidarity and togetherness is both profound and really powerful.”

She added: “As a global industry we are stronger when we are together sharing challenges, solutions, ideas, inspiration, energy and the infectious ‘can do’ spirit that underpins our industry.

“I also believe this mindset goes beyond product. We are also ‘stronger together’ when we are addressing diversity in all of its forms, safer gambling and protection of the vulnerable. In this respect the Consumer Protection Zone at ICE represents a stand-out feature on the show floor. Safer gambling has moved centre stage at ICE and the industry is much stronger when we collectively address consumer protection.”

Stuart Hunter, Managing Director of Clarion Gaming stated: “In the research that we undertake with stakeholders on a regular basis the primary reason quoted for attending ICE is the calibre of the exhibitors and the access their presence provides to the very latest innovations, and technology solutions.

“However it’s clear that when so many of the industry’s influencers and strategic bodies come together in one place it’s also possible to address broader issues. The award-winning ICE Consumer Protection Zone has been and will continue to be the focus for discussions regarding the industry’s safer gambling undertakings and there will also be events and debates regarding diversity and inclusion in the gambling industry.

“I think it’s fascinating to reflect on how the hundreds of thousands of conversations that will take place on and off the show floor at ICE will help to fashion the direction of the industry.”

“The common denominator whether you are an operator from South America, a machine developer from Europe, a regulator from Australia or a safer gambling charity working out of London is the power that ICE has to help stakeholders make the ‘connections’ that power the industry which is why the return of a full-sized ICE in February is so exciting and so compelling.”

Not Just Data: A Record of RocketPlay Player Voices

Published

on

In iGaming, reports often highlight numbers — deposits, conversion rates, retention, and other performance indicators. But behind these figures lies another equally important story: how players experience fun, form habits, and integrate games into their daily lives. This article looks at that side of gaming, with RocketPlay’s recent community project offering an example.

This year, RocketPlay Casino launched a project to better understand how players approach online gaming and add fun to their daily life. The goal was to explore the perception of online gaming not through statistics alone, but by hearing directly from the community.

The starting point was a gap the team noticed in existing industry reports: while numbers and performance metrics are widely available, there was little data on how players themselves describe their habits and approaches to fun. To address this, RocketPlay prepared a survey and shared it with its community.

Within several weeks, approximately 1500 responses were collected. The input varied in form: some participants wrote just a few lines about how they like spending evenings playing, while others submitted long, structured notes of their gameplay experience — almost like personal guides.

Some respondents swore by the particular time of spinning during the day. Many tied their approach to personal rituals, favorite slots, or small traditions. No two answers were the same, and together they showed how many ways there are to approach fun through games.

“We were amazed by how open and thoughtful our community was,” says Alex Martin, PR Manager at RocketPlay. “The honesty and detail went far beyond what we expected, and we’re grateful for their openness. I believe this gave us an even deeper connection with our community, turning stories into insights we can measure.”

Each answer felt like a depiction of the modern gaming experience  — how different people add fun, mix it with luck, and turn play into enjoyment. Having such a wealth of insights, the team realized they had created something like a collective and warm memory of the fun time – dozens of tips, hundreds of personal stories, and countless small details were taken together.

At the start, RocketPlay did not intend to publish anything from the dialogue with players. But the team decided to keep these warm reflections for themselves and friends, so the answers were brought together in one collection — the RocketWisdom book.

At this stage, RocketPlay does not plan to make the book publicly available. Still, the team is considering different ways to keep the material connected to the community — perhaps through future collaborations or special projects. For now, the collection remains an exclusive record of how players themselves describe their play, leaving space for new formats and ideas ahead.

For RocketPlay, the key insight was clear: talk with your players — they сould bring inspiration behind every activity you launch. Ask questions, listen to their stories, and you’ll discover more than numbers can show. This dialogue became a record of how people enjoy gaming — their stories and habits will inspire future community projects. Because behind every device there is always a person.

For some, gaming is like a quiet morning coffee, a walk with their dog, or the joy of planting something new in the garden. For others, it’s a way to unwind after work, connect with friends across the world, or simply add a small spark of joy to the day. Data and numbers give the industry direction, but it’s emotions and everyday rituals that make it truly meaningful and alive.

BETBY, a leading sportsbook supplier, has reported another strong quarter, with its Q3 2025 performance underlining consistent growth and sustained engagement across its global partner network. The results highlight the provider’s continued expansion, innovation, and ability to deliver competitive value to operators worldwide.

Importantly, these results were achieved despite a non-idyllic September, which was marked by uncompetitive margins due to sporting outcomes. This resilience further underscores the company’s ability to maintain growth momentum even in unfavourable market conditions.

This performance further demonstrates the scalability and reliability of BETBY’s sportsbook solution, which continues to attract new partners and drive growth across regulated markets. The supplier’s investment in proprietary trading models, AI-powered tools, and tailored partner support remains central to its strategy.

Betby.Games, BETBY’s proprietary esports feed, also delivered a positive quarter, achieving an 8.43% year-on-year increase in Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR), a 6.18% rise in total bets placed, and an 11.85% growth in active players compared to the same period last year.
