QTech Games celebrates its 10-year anniversary
The preferred aggregator for emerging markets chalks up a decade in the vanguard of industry for game distribution across emerging markets
QTech Games, the leading game aggregator across emerging markets, is celebrating its 10-year anniversary. It will continue to consolidate its position at the forefront of the industry for game distribution, bringing an increasing breadth of compelling new casino games to market, and ensuring the successful rollout of its QTech Hybrid product, which is already taking retail online in Africa and LatAm.
Since inception in 2015, QTech has gone through the gears of double-digit growth during its formative years to first become the preeminent aggregator platform in Asia (where it was a pioneer in successfully migrating and localising European content), before going on to dominate an eclectic range of emerging markets.
Now a fully-fledged international powerhouse – with a reach that extends from Asia and Africa, and on to CIS-facing territories, Europe (including its new tech-hub in Malaga, Spain; and offices in Malta) and Latin America – QTech Games has never lost sight of its simple mission statement: find the best online games in the world and distribute them to operators and players on a worldwide stage with the latest technology and a customer-centric focus.
Mobile-first content remains the central focus of the company, whose success and technical prowess are founded on a fully-owned and customised technical platform that delivers suppliers and operators the fastest, most seamless integration on the market. Through this platform, which has bolstered its global status as a definitive one-stop gaming shop (QTech ONE™), clients enjoy the best performance and customer support available, localised to every region across both emerging and more mature markets. QTech Games’ array of new tools and campaigns are constantly updated with premium content that ensures the best offering in the market.
Innovation has been another watchword at QTech Games, showcasing its commitment to corralling the most innovative tools with which to enhance player engagement. After launching a unique crypto-to-game currency feature, a series of network progressive jackpots and even multi-supplier crash-game tournaments, QTech is now even reimagining the retail environment with QTech Hybrid, a product which finally joins up the retail and digital-mobile experience by providing a retail solution that can be effortlessly transferred to mobile in any emerging market, enabling the customer to continue playing after leaving the retail environment.
This long list of advances, coupled to relentless company growth, has accordingly seen QTech Games scoop a host of accolades in recent history – from Best Innovation (SBWA+ Awards) and Best Online Casino Supplier (SBEA+ Awards) for West and East Africa in 2025, and Asia and the Philippines (SPiCE) in 2024/2025, to Most Innovative Partner at the 2025 Africa Gaming Expo, and an EGR B2B Highly Commended nod for Best Aggregator Platform, with further shortlistings at multiple Global Gaming and SBC Awards.
Philip Doftvik, QTech Games’ CEO, said: “Naturally, this 10th anniversary offers a perfect opportunity to reflect on and celebrate where we’ve come from, thanks to our ever-growing and always-diligent team, stewarded by a firm vision of future growth. However, it’s also a timely moment to define our course for the next 10 years and beyond. We’ve always been in it for the long run, with a dedication to our clients success that is founded on the energy of our company culture and breakthrough tech-stack. Just take our game lobby, QTech Play, which became a sectoral forerunner for state-of-the-art, AI-powered personalization and recommendation way back in 2018.
“We have more work ahead of us, of course, unlocking more untapped markets for diversified growth from all our regions. However, we have a special focus now on Africa and Latin America. I’m also excited about the launch of the QTech Hybrid and firmly believe we have a very interesting future ahead!”

Esportes da Sorte has renewed its official sponsorship of the Parintins Folklore Festival for the 2026 edition
Esportes da Sorte has renewed its official sponsorship of the Parintins Folklore Festival for the 2026 edition.
The brand reinforces its strategy of promoting Brazilian culture after fostering an exchange between the North and Northeast regions during the Pernambuco Carnival.
Esportes da Sorte announced the renewal of its official sponsorship of the Parintins Folklore Festival for the 2026 edition.
Scheduled to take place from June 26 to 28, the event is part of the brand’s strategy to strengthen Brazilian cultural expressions and support the regional creative economy.
The continuation of the partnership follows a cycle of cultural integration promoted by the company over the past year.
In 2026, the group brought artistic references from the Parintins Festival to Recife Carnival by inviting Amazonian visual artist Iran Martins to design the brand’s parade float at Galo da Madrugada.
The project incorporated movement mechanisms and aesthetic elements inspired by the “bumbás” universe into the visual language of frevo.
Beyond brand exposure, the investment in Parintins is part of a positioning strategy focused on valuing Brazilian cultural identity and strengthening initiatives with strong regional ties.
“Our presence in Parintins goes beyond a branding action. It is a commitment to valuing Brazilian culture and the professionals who drive this creative ecosystem.
By bringing together references from the Parintins Festival and Recife Carnival, we show how different cultural expressions in the country can dialogue and create new connections.
We want to continue expanding this impact and contribute to keeping the bumbá tradition strong,” said Marcela Campos, Vice President of Grupo Esportes Gaming Brasil, owner of Esportes da Sorte.
Economic growth and new Bumbódromo
The Parintins Festival 2026 is expected to generate around R$193.2 million, a projected 5% increase compared to the previous edition. The forecast also includes approximately 30,000 direct and indirect jobs, as well as the arrival of around 126,000 tourists.
The audience will be welcomed in the new Bumbódromo, a structure with capacity for up to 25,000 people per day, which will become part of the festival’s expansion in the coming years.
Esportes da Sorte
Esportes da Sorte is one of Brazil’s leading sports betting platforms, with 100% national operations and a license granted by the Ministry of Finance (SPA/MF) to Esportes Gaming Brasil — the group that also owns the Onabet and Lottu brands.
The company is part of a Great Place to Work certified group and generates around 1,000 direct and indirect jobs. Its pillars include innovation, commitment to responsible gaming, and support for sector regulation.
It maintains strategic partnerships with institutions such as ANJL, IBIA, Sportradar, EBAC, and IAA, strengthening control practices, problem gambling prevention, and user protection.
In addition to sports betting, Esportes da Sorte invests consistently in sports, culture, and social projects. It is a master sponsor of clubs such as Corinthians, Ceará, Ferroviária, and Náutico, as well as supporting major cultural events like Galo da Madrugada, Carnival celebrations in cities such as Recife, Olinda, Salvador, Maceió, Natal, Caicó, Belo Horizonte, Rio de Janeiro, and São Paulo, and the Parintins Festival. The brand also expands its digital presence through creative campaigns and influencer partnerships, strengthening its connection with audiences across online platforms.
