Meet ProgressPlay at iGB Live and get a blueprint for success
Revolutionary advanced technology showcasing in Amsterdam
EGR-shortlisted ProgressPlay will be at the RAI Amsterdam mid-July showcasing the innovative new technology and tools that the company first brought to market at ICE2023. With its focus on innovation, collaboration, and growth, iGB Live is the must-attend event for iGaming professionals looking to succeed in the world of online igaming.
White-label and turnkey specialist ProgressPlay will join thousands of attendees from across the igaming industry to demonstrate their upgraded platform and Responsible Gambling tools that attracted the enthusiastic interest from EGR’s judges. The event offers a forum for businesses to showcase their latest products and services, as well as a space for networking and building relationships with potential partners.
In addition to the exhibition floor, iGB Live also hosts a series of conferences and workshops covering a wide range of topics such as regulation, marketing, and technology, mirroring ProgressPlay’s main areas of expertise. These sessions are led by industry experts who share their knowledge and experience to help attendees stay ahead of the curve in an ever-evolving industry.
ProgressPlay Head of Sales Marina Nahhas said: “Our new iGaming platform has quickly established itself as a game-changer in the industry. We encourage casino owners not to miss out on this opportunity to stay ahead of the competition by pre-booking a meeting in Amsterdam to find out how our new platform and tools can take their business to the next level.”
The online casino platform that ProgressPlay offers is a complete solution for managing any igaming business across multiple channels and products. Features include player account management, payment processing, bonusing, loyalty programs, fraud and risk prevention, as well as game management that includes powerful analytics.
In particular, ProgressPlay has significantly rethought its Responsible Gambling approach, creating an AI-driven proprietary flow for interaction with players which recognises them in real-time and scores them against a number of criteria. A point reinforced by ProgressPlay CEO Itai Loewenstein who said:
“ProgressPlay has developed its own proprietary Responsible Gambling software in an ambitious innovation project over a year in the making that covers a range of factors including KYC, player activity, affordability levels and results in a transparent audit trail to protect and enable players thereby introducing new levels of capability beyond regulatory standards.”
Over 150 online casino brands have partnered with ProgressPlay covering a unique combination of casino games and sports-betting. ProgressPlay’s sportsbook offers up to 40,000 live betting markets and services across 20 languages while the new platform offers a slick AI-driven UI/UX, and extensive value-added services alongside thousands of casino games, including slots, online casino, live casino, poker, table games, and sportsbook, across all devices and currencies.
CEO Loewenstein added: “iGB Live will be a great opportunity to meet all our partners and make new connections within the operator community. Marina and I are very happy to meet everyone and talk about any potential cooperation. See you next month in Amsterdam!”
Alona Shevtsova, CEO of Sends, will moderate a panel at The Blockchain show on 29th June, bringing together experts from entertainment, location-based gaming, and content localisation to examine what it takes to build sustainable gaming ecosystems across emerging markets.
The panel, titled “Global Gaming Expansion: Lessons from Untapped Markets,” will structure its discussion across four themes: the growth dynamics reshaping emerging gaming markets; the role of localisation in creating experiences that genuinely connect with new audiences; the infrastructure and communities needed to build gaming ecosystems beyond the game itself; and the lessons and opportunities that will define successful expansion in the years ahead.
Alona Shevtsova plans to frame the discussion around the central challenge for companies looking to expand globally: entering a new market requires far more than bringing an existing product to a new audience. Understanding local cultures, building communities, adapting experiences, and creating ecosystems that allow gaming to grow sustainably are all as important as the product itself.
Alona Shevtsova, CEO of Sends, said:
“The future growth of gaming will come not only from new technologies, but from understanding people — their cultures, communities, and the experiences they want to be part of. Successful expansion will belong to those who can combine global ambition with local understanding.”
The first segment will examine why regions including the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia are becoming increasingly significant for developers, operators, and investors — driven by young audiences, accelerating digital adoption, and new entertainment models creating substantial growth potential. Panellists will explore how consumer preferences differ across markets and what trends among younger audiences are shaping the future of gaming and entertainment.
The third segment will broaden the lens beyond the game itself, exploring the role of location-based entertainment, gaming centres, esports, and experiential destinations in attracting new audiences and building long-term communities. Panellists plan to address how entertainment ecosystems — spanning physical venues, events, and community infrastructure — accelerate gaming adoption in markets where the category is still establishing itself.
Earlier this month, Alona Shevtsova was shortlisted for the 2026 Great British Entrepreneur Awards in the Established Business of the Year category. Her team is also preparing for the Fintech Connect conference in London later this year. Sends will be a leading sponsor of this event.
