Global betting, gaming and racing communities unite ahead of International Women’s Day 2023
More than 50 leading operators, suppliers, regulators, trainers and associations have united to back the IWD2023 #EmbraceEquity campaign
Leading organisations in the global betting, gaming and racing sectors are supporting an industry campaign to embrace equity, in line with the theme of International Women’s Day 2023.
Led by All-in Diversity Project and Square in the Air, the award-winning partnership behind IWD2022’s hard-hitting video campaign, the 2023 awareness drive seeks to highlight the extraordinary range of personal stories and achievements that help shape the global betting, gaming and racing sectors.
From world-record holders and military veterans to inspiring scientists and those volunteering to deliver healthcare in the jungles of Africa, the 2023 campaign celebrates the personal achievements of women across these global industries.
Tina Thakor-Rankin, Co-Founder of the All-in Diversity Project, said: “Last year, our IWD video campaign – delivered in close partnership with Square in the Air – sought to highlight the sometimes shocking personal experiences of women working in the betting and gaming sectors.
“Into 2023, it is time for celebration and an opportunity to emphasise the amazing achievements of women in our industry. This campaign uses those feats to illustrate that not only does this industry seek to fully ‘embrace equity’, but that our different experiences make us stronger.”
Ellen Kerbey, Creative Director at Square in the Air, said: “We’ve been amazed at some of the incredible achievements that women worldwide have shared as part of this campaign, but more than anything it serves as a reminder that each of us has our story, our own experiences and a unique set of strengths to celebrate.
“Under the #GamingAsOne and #AllintheRace hashtags, it’s heartening to see the biggest betting, gaming and racing organisations in the world unite to celebrate our strength in diversity.”
BetMGM, Betsson, Entain, Kindred, LeoVegas, Paddy Power Betfair, Penn Entertainment, PokerStars and Sportsbet are among the major operators supporting the campaign, alongside leading suppliers such as Games Global, IGT, Light & Wonder, Microgaming and Playtech, all under the #GamingAsOne hashtag.
Support also comes from, among others, Better Collective, Clarion, the wider Flutter Group, Lottoland and Yolo Group. Elsewhere, regulators backing the campaign include the Malta Gaming Authority and the Massachusetts Gaming Commission.
Uniting under the #AllintheRace hashtag, the racing community is also well represented, with a wide range of organisations lining up to support IWD2023, including the British Horseracing Authority, Godolphin Racing, the Injured Jockeys Fund and the UK Tote.
A full list of supporting companies and associations from the betting, gaming and racing sectors, as well as the achievements and experiences of the women featured in the campaign, will be published on social media during the week of International Women’s Day 2023, which is on Wednesday 8th March.

Betable powers trio of UK sportsbook launches
Betable has launched three UK sportsbooks on its platform under its UKGC licence, cementing its position as the go-to partner for brands looking to scale in the regulated UK market.
Among the launches are two new brands, Ivy Bet, a sportsbook sister brand of Ivy Casino, and new market entrant RightBet.
Meanwhile, established brand Bet442 switches to the Betable platform to enhance its sportsbook offering, providing players with improved performance, expanded market coverage and a seamless betting experience.
The multi-brand rollout marks a significant milestone for Betable as it continues to expand its role as a technology and regulatory infrastructure provider for operators targeting the UK’s highly competitive regulated market.
Charlie Noble, COO at Betable, said: “Launching multiple sportsbook brands on the Betable platform demonstrates the flexibility and scalability of our infrastructure. The UK remains one of the most competitive and tightly regulated betting markets in the world, and we’re proud to support brands like Bet442, Ivy Bet and RightBet as they establish and expand their presence.”
Mark Good, representing Ivy Bet, added: “The launch of Ivy Bet represents a natural progression following the success and rapid growth of Ivy Casino in the UK market. Extending the Ivy brand into sportsbook creates new opportunities for players who enjoy both casino and sports betting experiences, and Betable’s platform provides the regulated infrastructure required to support that ambition.”
The three launches reflect increasing demand from operators for flexible sportsbook technology capable of supporting both established brands and new market entrants in the UK.
All three brands will benefit from Betable’s regulated infrastructure, enabling them to operate within the UK’s highly regulated environment while focusing on player acquisition and brand growth.

Matices culturales: localización del servicio al cliente para América Latina
Por Giuseppe Barbanera, Head of Commercial LATAM en Games Global
En una industria que se enorgullece de su alcance global, es fácil asumir que la escala por sí sola garantiza el éxito.
Pero en iGaming, “global” nunca debería significar uniforme. Los mercados a los que servimos no son intercambiables y en ningún lugar esto es más evidente que en América Latina.
Con demasiada frecuencia, las empresas intentan replicar modelos de atención al cliente europeos o estadounidenses en todas las regiones, asumiendo que la eficiencia y la estandarización se traducirán de forma universal.
En realidad, operar en múltiples regiones no significa necesariamente que el mismo modelo funcione en todas partes.
En la práctica, el éxito depende de qué tan bien se adapten las estrategias a cada mercado.
Una estrategia que funciona eficazmente en Europa o en Estados Unidos puede fracasar en América Latina si no tiene en cuenta los matices culturales y la forma en que las personas prefieren comunicarse y generar confianza.
La verdadera pregunta para nuestra industria no es si podemos operar globalmente, sino si estamos dispuestos a adaptarnos localmente. ¿Estamos preparados para abordar los mercados en sus propios términos?
Si bien el iGaming tiene un alcance internacional, cuando se trata de atención al cliente y gestión de cuentas, no existe una regla universal.
Cada región aporta su propia cultura empresarial y tiene sus propias expectativas.
Comprender esas diferencias es esencial para construir alianzas duraderas. Ignorar esto implica el riesgo de no aprovechar todo el potencial de los mercados de alto crecimiento.
América Latina lo ejemplifica con especial claridad.
La región está creciendo rápidamente y ofrece oportunidades significativas con dinámicas propias y un ritmo de desarrollo particular.
Diferentes regiones requieren diferentes enfoques, y el éxito depende de adoptar una estrategia mucho más práctica y adaptable que refleje las condiciones del mercado local.
Las relaciones y la confianza constituyen la base de los negocios, y los socios valoran el tiempo, la presencia y la consistencia.
La gestión de cuentas no se trata solo de apoyar las operaciones diarias; también implica guiar a los socios a través de cambios regulatorios mientras se adaptan soluciones que reflejen tanto las preferencias culturales como el comportamiento de los jugadores.
Los matices culturales, por lo tanto, desempeñan un papel clave en la construcción de alianzas sólidas. Hablar el mismo idioma y reconocer las costumbres locales ayuda a crear conexiones genuinas.
Estos pequeños pero importantes puntos de contacto transforman las conversaciones comerciales en relaciones personales, lo que a su vez genera confianza y facilita la colaboración, asegurando que las estrategias sean más relevantes y efectivas.
Después de todo, los negocios están hechos por personas, y si tuvieras que elegir un socio, ¿no preferirías a alguien que haya dedicado tiempo a comprender tu cultura y tus valores?
La flexibilidad y la empatía son igualmente importantes.
Aunque las prioridades pueden variar según el mercado, equilibrar la eficiencia con una comunicación y colaboración sólidas es clave en todas partes.
En América Latina, el diálogo y la construcción de relaciones desempeñan un papel especialmente relevante.
Los operadores y socios quieren saber que sus desafíos son comprendidos y que las soluciones ofrecidas reflejan sus necesidades comerciales y están adaptadas al mercado local.
Esto significa que la experiencia técnica no es suficiente.
El verdadero éxito proviene de la conciencia cultural y de la voluntad de adaptar modelos globales a las necesidades locales, en lugar de obligar a los mercados locales a adaptarse a modelos globales.
Tener presencia en el terreno también marca una diferencia tangible.
Los equipos y estudios locales ofrecen una visión directa de las tendencias cambiantes, las regulaciones y las preferencias de los jugadores.
Esta proximidad permite a las empresas responder rápidamente, ya sea lanzando contenido que conecte con audiencias globales, adaptando campañas a celebraciones locales o ayudando a los socios a navegar por requisitos de cumplimiento en evolución.
Combinar escala global con presencia local permite ofrecer un soporte que se percibe como relevante y confiable.
Lo que vemos en América Latina es que la atención al cliente nunca es un modelo único para todos.
Está moldeada por las personas tanto como por los productos.
Al escuchar las perspectivas locales, invertir en relaciones y adoptar los matices culturales, la atención al cliente se convierte en algo más que la resolución de problemas y pasa a ser un motor de crecimiento a largo plazo.
Esa es la diferencia entre ser simplemente otro proveedor y convertirse en un verdadero socio.
La región recompensa a quienes se toman el tiempo de escuchar, adaptarse y conectar, y a medida que América Latina continúa creciendo y madurando, la comprensión cultural seguirá siendo un factor determinante en las colaboraciones más exitosas.
