Fast-growing slot specialist, Booming Games, is delighted to announce the hire of two iGaming experts Kaska Pysz and Dorota Gruszka as Product Owner and Marketing Manager.

Kaska is a product and gamification specialist with more than 15 years of experience in the gaming sector. She started out in land-based casinos as a dealer and then floor manager, learning first-hand about player behaviour.

Having achieved a Degree in Marketing and Management from the University of Cracow, she then shifted focus to product development. When she developed her first promotional tool, she was able to combine her knowledge of what a campaign manager-friendly back office should look like with her passion for engaging and entertaining players. For the past 3 years, Kaska was working on gamification tools that enhance players’ experience, when playing their favourite games.

Kaska said: “I am incredibly excited to have joined Booming Games and its amazing team of professionals that are passionate about making this one of the top slot providers in the business. I’ve already been involved in some fascinating projects and have been able to use my experience and skills in developing gamification tools to make an impact on some of the game-changing features Booming Games has in the pipeline.

“It’s also great to once again be working with Dorota, who is not only a very talented marketer but someone I also consider a friend.”

Dorota Gruszka started her iGaming journey 7 years ago, and over time she worked in various departments, gaining experience on both providers and operator sides. Her true passion for marketing started a couple of years ago, and she dedicated a lot of time and effort to mastering her skills.

At Booming Games, she will be responsible for overseeing the marketing department and developing and deploying campaigns for driving awareness of the studio and its slots among operators in markets around the world. This includes ownership of brand strategies, press announcements, media partnerships, promotional programmes and the studio’s social media presence.

Dorota added: “Booming Games is an innovative and diverse company with a highly capable team that consists of more than 40 nationalities. This has helped to create a portfolio of games that is equally diverse with slots that are truly engaging and entertaining.

“I couldn’t be happier to join such an open, creative organisation that positions itself at the cutting-edge of game development. Of course, I’m super excited to be teaming up with Kaska once again and believe that between us we can play a significant role in helping Booming Games not only meet but exceed its ambitious goals.”

The double hires come at a time when Booming Games is experiencing rapid growth both in terms of market reach and operator partnerships.

Moritz Blume, Director of Product at Booming Games, said: “Booming Games is rapidly growing, doubling in size over the past year. It is very important for us to ensure that we hire experienced people that also fit in with the team and share our vision. I am convinced that Kaska and Dorota will add significant value to our company, and I am delighted to start working with them both.”

Frederik Nielsen, Chief Commercial Office at Booming Games, added: “I am thrilled to welcome Kaska and Dorota to Booming Games. They have already fit in with our culture and teams, and their experience in the industry will be highly beneficial in our upcoming projects. Our recent hiring spree has seen us bring many talented individuals on board, and I really look forward to working with them all.”

The wait is over! The 2025 edition of BiS SiGMA Americas is already underway and promises to be historic, accompanying a moment of intense transformation and consolidation of the iGaming scene in Brazil.

For this reason, the largest betting event in Latin America is ready to welcome and meet the demands of the national and international community. This year, the organization decided to expand the physical space by 50%, from 20 thousand square meters to 32 thousand square meters distributed in 5 halls of the Transamerica Expo Center, in São Paulo.

In addition to the trade fair and conferences with more than 300 prestigious experts from around the world, BiS SiGMA Americas offers a diverse program, including award ceremonies, exclusive networking dinners, a poker tournament, an electrifying night with MMA fights and a grand closing party.

Expectation of record attendance

In addition to the categories that have always been present at the event, such as Online Betting Operators, Software and Technology Providers, Affiliates and Digital Marketing, Payment Methods and Financial Solutions, this edition draws attention to the presence of new technology companies that add value and provide innovative resources for the industry.

This means that the betting market is evolving, with new branches emerging to strengthen the ecosystem. KYC (Know Your Customer) companies, Consulting and Compliance, Information and Database Management, AdTechs and Digital Advertising Networks are making their presence felt with solutions to ensure security, regulatory compliance and more efficient growth strategies.

Furthermore, the recent regulation of sports betting and online gaming in Brazil represents a milestone for the market. BiS SiGMA Americas therefore serves as a platform for experts, regulators and industry leaders to assess the challenges and opportunities of this time of adaptation, as well as explore global trends that may impact the local industry.

Given this, the event organizers predict that the 2025 edition will reach a record number of attendees and participating brands. The estimate is that more than 18,000 people will pass through the Transamérica Expo Center by Thursday (10).

Global B2B iGaming content provider secures first Canadian market entry following the successful submission and approval of its gaming-related supplier application

Playnetic, the in-demand global B2B iGaming content provider known for its quality games, reliable delivery and outstanding customer service, has announced the approval of its gaming-related supplier application by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO).

With the AGCO licensing process being recognised in the industry for its rigorous standards and thorough due diligence, the new certification confirms Playnetic was able to meet the high levels of integrity and regulatory compliance needed to legally distribute its content within the province.

As a result of the approval, Playnetic has now secured its first Canadian market entry and will be able to provide its library of innovative games to licensed operators in the Ontario region – with this starting point paving the way for further expansion into other regulated provinces in future.

Given signs of change emerging within the Canadian market and Alberta making progress toward a regulated online model – likely drawing from Ontario’s framework – this license positions Playnetic strongly to expand its footprint in the country and further solidifies the company’s ambitious growth plans.

In the meantime, Playnetic has already begun making groundwork with key operators in the Ontario region and is looking forward to going live with some exciting brands over the coming months. The company will also be attending SBC’s Canadian Gaming Summit from June 17-19, where both existing and new potential partners alike are welcome to stop by and meet the team.

Dan Phillips, Chief Executive Officer at Playnetic, said: “Acquiring AGCO approval for our gaming-related supplier application is undoubtedly a big step for Playnetic. The new license not only secures our first Canadian market entry, but also reaffirms Playnetic’s position as a trusted provider in iGaming and underlines our commitment to compliance and operational excellence.”

Julian Borg-Barthet, Chief Commercial Officer at Playnetic, said: “We’re very excited to now be in a position to offer our library of innovative gaming content in Ontario, and the groundwork to do that with some of the region’s biggest licensed operators is already underway. Over time, we’re confident this license will also help us expand further into current markets and emerging regulated provinces, such as Alberta.”
