Betsson Group is expanding its global technology operations with the launch of a new tech hub in Málaga, Spain. Following a comprehensive evaluation of multiple locations, Málaga was selected as the ideal choice due to its strong tech ecosystem, excellent infrastructure, international talent pool, and high quality of life.

“Málaga offers the perfect environment for our next phase of growth,” said Jesper Svensson, CEO of Betsson Operations. “As we continue to expand and innovate, strengthening our tech organisation is a key priority. This new hub will enable us to attract top-tier talent and enhance our capabilities in gaming development, native app development, and AI. These are key areas that support our ambition to provide the best player experience in the industry.”

Betsson is actively hiring for a range of technical roles, including backend and frontend developers, QA engineers, as well as AI and machine learning specialists. The core tech stack will include .NET and native development with Kotlin and Swift. The company will be recruiting talent both from within Spain and internationally. Spain’s strong links to Latin America and favourable visa arrangements make it an attractive destination for skilled professionals looking to relocate.

“Málaga shares many qualities with Malta, where we have built a world-class tech team over the past 20 years,” added Svensson. “It is an international, dynamic city with great energy and excellent connections to most of our other offices, making it a natural choice for this expansion.”

Establishing a presence in the city will allow Betsson to tap into this vibrant and skilled talent base while providing exciting career opportunities in a company known not only for its innovation and technology-driven approach but also for its commitment to employee wellbeing. Betsson has been recognised with multiple employer and company of the year awards and offers competitive benefits to employees in all its locations, including the new Málaga hub.

Betsson already has offices in 21 countries and employs more than 2,500 professionals worldwide, reinforcing its position as one of the leading employers in the industry.

Bloomreach, the global leader in CRM and Personalisation, trusted by over 1400 businesses globally, has selected Flows, the no code automation platform driving faster product delivery for businesses globally, to power its data orchestration and automation across its platform.

Personalisation sits at the heart of Bloomreach, with real-time data already deeply embedded in its technology. Now, by combining that strength with Flows’ orchestration and integration layer, the partnership gives customers a smarter, faster way to connect systems, enhance segmentations, and trigger journeys across even more channels than before, without development dependency or technical blockers. It also simplifies how businesses activate systems that don’t naturally work together, from messaging platforms like Telegram or Viber to acquisition platforms like X or Taboola.

The partnership also gives Bloomreach customers access to Flows’ powerful no-code automation suite, enabling them to work smarter and faster. This includes Marketing Capabilities including Jackpots and Leaderboards for fully gamified experiences for operators, intuitive dashboards for smarter decision-making, and enhancements in frontend personalisation to tailor every user experience.

Daniel de Souza, VP Commercial at Flows, said: “Bloomreach is a powerhouse in real-time personalisation, and pairing it with Flows gives its customers a smarter way to connect all your marketing tools, trigger journeys using multiple platforms, and remove the technical blockers that slow down execution. I’m excited to see  how Bloomreach’s customers will use our no-code product suite to enhance customer experiences, and unlock further value from their tech stack.”

Flows’ customer base will be able to now power all player experiences from one unified platform.”
