Groove Technologies Shines in Georgia at SmartSoft Partner Event: Culture, Connection, and Collaboration Take Centre Stage
Groove Technologies’ Account Manager Nathalie brought signature energy and excellence to the heart of the Caucasus during a vibrant industry gathering hosted by SmartSoft, one of the region’s most innovative gaming providers.
The event, held under the guidance of SmartSoft’s Regional Commercial Head, Beka Kipiani, unfolded in Tbilisi against a backdrop of Georgian tradition, art, and world-renowned hospitality. Far more than a business meeting, this immersive experience showcased the fusion of iGaming innovation and cultural celebration, reinforcing strong ties between Groove, SmartSoft and other participants.
From high-level strategy discussions to a glamorous Gala Dinner, Nathalie represented Groove with style, joining fellow iGaming leaders for an evening of fine cuisine, live music, and the unmistakable warmth of Georgian camaraderie.
The itinerary didn’t stop at the ballroom. A rich cultural programme took guests through historic landmarks, arts showcases, and curated experiences that brought Georgian heritage to life, echoing the fusion of legacy and future-forward thinking that defines both Groove and SmartSoft.
As part of her visit, Nathalie also took part in a focused meeting and dinner with Groove Georgia’s team, strengthening regional alignment and celebrating the local team’s fast-growing contributions to Groove’s global strategy.
SmartSoft’s innovative collection of arcade-style casino games and premium slots is redefining the casino experience by blending skill-based mechanics with immersive gameplay to create groundbreaking crash-style games and other non-traditional casino content. Among SmartSoft’s most popular titles is JetX, an adrenaline-fueled crash game where players bet on the soaring trajectory of a jet plane. With its thrilling risk-reward mechanics and social multiplayer appeal, JetX has captured the attention of gamers across the world.
Beka Kipiani, SmartSoft’s Regional Commercial Head, added: “Hosting Groove’s Nathalie and our many other industry friends in Georgia was both a pleasure and a privilege. We believe in the power of local pride and global ambition, Groove understands that language. This wasn’t just a company event; it was a celebration of partnership, trust, and shared growth.”
As Groove continues to expand its global network of premium gaming partners, experiences like these highlight the power of in-person collaboration in crafting tomorrow’s success stories. Groove’s 15,000+ game portfolio, powered by 150+ elite providers including SmarttSoft, already stands as one of the most comprehensive in iGaming.
Yahale Meltzer, Co-Founder and COO of Groove Technologies, said: “Groove thrives on relationships; real, human partnerships that evolve beyond emails and dashboards. Events like this give our people, like Nathalie, the chance to connect deeply with partners like SmartSoft, to understand their market, and to share a bit of our Groove DNA while embracing theirs. Georgia delivered beauty, insight, and opportunity in equal measure.”

Blask Crowned Best AI Solution at SiGMA Eurasia Awards 2026
Blask, a market intelligence ecosystem powered by AI for the iGaming sector, has been awarded Best AI Solution 2026 at the SiGMA Eurasia Awards, which took place yesterday in Dubai.
The accolade honors Blask for utilizing artificial intelligence to address a persistent issue in iGaming: the absence of dependable, prompt, and comparable market data in both regulated and offshore markets. Blask provides hourly updated AI-generated market intelligence instead of depending on slow reports and surveys.
The platform integrates computer vision, natural language processing, and predictive modeling to autonomously identify iGaming brands globally, assess market size and revenue potential, and monitor competitive trends in almost real-time.
Operators, affiliates, game providers, regulators, and investors utilize its exclusive metrics, such as the Blask Index, BAP, APS, and CEB, to aid in making strategic and operational choices.
“This award is a strong validation of the approach we’ve taken from day one,” said Max Tesla, co-founder and CEO of Blask. “We didn’t want to build another analytics dashboard. We wanted to build AI infrastructure that shows what’s really happening in the market, especially in places where data simply doesn’t exist.”
The SiGMA Eurasia win marks Blask’s fifth major industry award. Previous recognitions include Best Tech at the iGB Affiliate Awards 2025, Rising Star in Casino Innovation at the SBC Awards, Startup of the Year at the Starlet Awards, and SiGMA Asia Startup Pitch 2024.
