Accordingly, this successful integration grants its platform customers access to a distinctive slots catalogue of next-gen games which are capturing the hearts and minds of varied demographics.
Galaxsys, fresh from attaining game-certification in Colombia and Greece, is a fast-growing gaming studio that offers a wide range of over 20 fast and skill games. Founded in 2021, it has already made an impressive mark in the iGaming industry, winning three prestigious awards, including Fast Games Provider of the Year at the SiGMA Europe Awards, Game Innovation of the Year at the Starlet Awards and Innovative Product at the Romanian Gambling Industry Grand Awards.
“We are delighted to partner with QTech Games, the leading game distributor in Asia,” said Sales and Business Senior Vice-President for Galaxsys, Gil Soffer. “Our shared commitment to innovation, player engagement and providing the best possible gaming experience will make this a mutually beneficial partnership.”
For QTech Games, this partnership represents a significant step forward in achieving its mission to become the largest provider of digital entertainment in Asia and other emerging markets by 2025.

This deal naturally broadens Galaxsys’ geographic footprint, carving out emerging markets from Asia and Eastern Europe to Latin America and creating new revenue streams. As the fastest-growing distributor in Asia over the past few years, QTech’s platform offers the most expansive gaming portfolio around, localized for each region, with native mobile apps, powerful reporting and marketing tools and 24/7 local-language support.

By combining video-game-level visuals with the latest maths models for improved gameplay and varying volatility where needed, it is one of the pioneers in bringing this fresh format of risk to the digital gaming space.
“Together, we can continue to elevate and shape a localized experience for players worldwide. We can’t wait to witness how these games perform across a range of untapped markets, which, in many cases, represent new territories for Galaxsys.”

NFL Partners with Responsible Gambling Council to Launch Student-Athlete Training Program in Canada
The National Football League announced a partnership with the Responsible Gambling Council (RGC) to develop and implement a comprehensive responsible gambling training program specifically designed for university and college student-athletes. The RGC and NFL have identified student athletes as an important audience for targeted responsible gambling and problem gambling prevention initiatives, as previous research has shown their susceptibility to risky gambling behavior.
The program will launch with a pilot phase at eight universities and colleges across Canada in the upcoming 2025 spring semester. Insights and feedback from this phase will be used to refine and improve the program before its broader rollout to 30 university and college institutions in the 2025 – 2026 school year. The initiative will include a robust evaluation framework to measure the effectiveness and impact of the training. The NFL and RGC will explore opportunities to share the results and key learnings from this initiative with broader audiences to maximize its impact.
“Student-athletes face unique pressures from academics, athletics, and the accessibility of sports betting, making them vulnerable to risky gambling behaviours. Our partnership with the NFL is a crucial step in supporting this group by providing the education and tools needed to make informed decisions. Early responsible gambling education helps student-athletes build capacities to succeed both on and off the field,” said Sarah McCarthy, chief executive officer, Responsible Gambling Council.
“We are proud to support the Responsible Gambling Council in this important initiative. Our shared goal is to equip these student-athletes with the tools and knowledge to navigate gambling risks, fostering a safer and more responsible environment. We also hope to gain insights that will be invaluable in shaping future responsible gambling efforts to benefit all those who play and engage with our game as fans,” said Anna Isaacson, NFL senior vice president of social responsibility.
The program aims to equip student-athletes across Canada with the knowledge and tools necessary to make informed decisions about gambling. RGC will design and develop a course that is tailored to the specific student-athlete audience, and support in “training the trainer” at participating campuses, which is a key component in ensuring those delivering the training have the right tools and information to support the learning goals of the program.
The training program will include a specialized, interactive session featuring engaging videos, interactive components, and best practices for responsible gambling. After participating in the training, student-athletes will:
• Understand the dangers, risks, and odds of gambling and how players are likely to lose over time.
• Recognize their unique susceptibility to risky gambling behavior.
• Identify the signs of gambling-related harms and their potential impact on players and loved ones.
• Learn about resources available for those experiencing gambling-related harms.
This collaboration with the RGC is part of the NFL’s commitment to promoting responsible gambling practices and addressing the critical need for resources devoted to both responsible and problem gambling initiatives. It builds on the NFL’s existing efforts in the space, including its partnership with the National Council on Problem Gambling, which focuses on bolstering problem gambling prevention services and promoting responsible gambling initiatives in the US.
