Internet Vikings Expands into Latin America with New Data Center

Internet Vikings, the leading licensed hosting provider, announces its entry into Latin America with a new data center. Signaling a beneficial move forward for the company, it continues to broaden its service offerings in response to the growing licensed iGaming and online sports betting sector in the region.
Seeing the potential in the regulated Latin America’s iGaming and Sports Betting market, Rickard Vikström, Founder and CEO of Internet Vikings, led the company’s efforts to establish a presence in the continent. “Entering into Latin America was not only a strategic decision for growth but also a commitment to provide local regulated operators with access to VMware cloud hosting, compliant with instant scaling on-demand,” Vikström stated.
New regulations and a steadily growing gambling industry position Latin America prominently within the global iGaming arena. Internet Vikings is ready to leverage these opportunities by offering reliable and secure hosting services that enable operators to develop in this competitive environment.
Kristoffer Ottosson, COO of Internet Vikings, emphasized the company’s obligation to support its clients’ efforts in new territories. “Our launch into Latin America underscores our dedication to providing the industry with a heightened level of cybersecurity, and infrastructure to support our clients effectively”, Ottosson remarked. “We are confident that our partnership with local stakeholders, combined with our VMware cloud hosting services, will enable us to deliver value to current and potential operators in the area.”
As Internet Vikings extends its global presence, with the introduction of tailored VMware cloud hosting services in Latin America, its focus remains on providing innovative solutions that fuel growth and improve user experiences to meet the specific needs of the market.
