Incentive Games looks to Nine Twenty again in Search for the Cream of Tech Talent
Incentive Games, one of the fastest growing tech companies in the UK, has again turned to recruitment specialists Nine Twenty to turbo-charge its growth.
The Edinburgh-based specialist gaming company is embarking on a major hiring spree as part of its plan to triple turnover over the next 18 months.
To do so, Incentive Games plan to add up to 30 mathematical engineers and developers to its existing headcount of 40.
The company will seek out candidates from well-known international tech companies, offering not only generous salaries, but a true work-life balance.
John Gordon, CEO of Incentive Games, said: “We have always been more of a grower than a shower – and that’s never been truer than now.
“Nine Twenty has helped us grow for years by sourcing exceptional people – no other advisers have come anywhere close.
“We may not be the biggest operation, but the talent we need is hard to find, and it demands outstanding salaries and conditions.
“Therefore, each hire is a big win, and Nine Twenty saves us a phenomenal amount of time by finding and screening candidates as we continue to scale up.”
Chris Lowden, Director at Nine Twenty, said: “Innovative and forward-looking companies such as Incentive Games require a bespoke service and are moving away from generalists to boutique firms such as ours.
“It has been a pleasure and a privilege to work with such remarkable people over the years and we are very glad to be able to continue to support them as they enter into the next stage of their growth journey.
“And as an additional means of helping them do so, our Tech team colleague, Nyomi O’Dowd, will be working with Incentive Games exclusively as Talent Acquisition Manager to help the company fulfil all its talent requirements.”
Chris, who joined Nine Twenty Recruitment in 2014, helps to drive the commercial elements of the Technology & Digital arm of the business.
Its core specialisms in technology, digital, manufacturing and engineering have led to strong growth with the hire of entrepreneurially minded individuals to run component parts of the group on a work-from-anywhere basis as their own businesses.
Incentive Games, which is predicting a rise in turnover from $6 million by the end of this year to $18 million by December 2023, offers developers who fit its company culture full autonomy, including working from home.
Chris added: “We recognise that employees are not just a number, they are ultimately the reason behind all companies’ success.”

Esportes da Sorte runs World Cup fan chant spot on Times Square screens
The Esportes Gaming Brasil activation aired in two five-minute slots after Brazil’s opening match, alongside a broader SBT sponsorship and bar program.
Esportes da Sorte aired a World Cup-themed activation on Times Square’s large-format screens in New York on 13 and 14 June 2026, following Brazil’s opening match of the tournament. The campaign ran in two continuous five-minute slots and prompted passers-by to sing the chant: “I am Brazilian, with great pride and great love”.
The Times Square creative featured singer Léo Santana and a group of brand ambassadors and influencers named by the company as Carlinhos Maia, Bruno Formiga, Luisinho Freitas and Raul Erlich, who are producing tournament coverage from the US.
The activation was placed by Esportes Gaming Brasil, the holding group behind Esportes da Sorte, Lottu and Onabet. The company said the New York placement formed part of a wider multi-platform World Cup strategy spanning advertising, live activations and real-time content.
Esportes Gaming Brasil is an official sponsor of the tournament broadcasts on SBT, with planned visibility across free-to-air TV, the +SBT streaming platform, N Sports and digital channels. In Brazil, the group said it is also running activations across approximately 130 bars in cities including São Paulo, Recife, Salvador, Belo Horizonte and Fortaleza.
The company is also running two national campaigns during the World Cup period: “Cheer Like a Corinthian” and “Call-Up”.

Sportradar data: Mbappe leads Haaland and Messi in player-to-score betting
The company says Mbappe drew 29% of player-to-score tickets across three matches, ahead of Haaland (16%) and Messi (10%).
Kylian Mbappe attracted the most action in player-to-score betting markets compared with Erling Haaland and Lionel Messi, according to new insights released by Sportradar.
The company said it reviewed “hundreds of thousands” of betting tickets processed in the ‘player to score’ market across France v Senegal, Iraq v Norway, and Argentina v Algeria. Mbappe accounted for 29% of those tickets, Sportradar said, compared with 16% for Haaland and 10% for Messi.
Daren Lury, Head of Risk Management at Sportradar said: “We’re seeing high levels of engagement with Mbappe across all of our player markets – a clear sign of his quality and popularity amongst fans worldwide. Based on the betting activity we’re seeing, he’s well positioned to challenge for the Golden Boot having won the award four years ago.”
Sportradar added that, at the time of writing, opening-match results in the tournament had not materially shifted engagement in the Golden Boot winner betting market. The company said Haaland accounted for 21% of tickets processed in that market, followed by Mbappe with 15% and Messi at 4%.
Sportradar said it processes betting tickets on behalf of more than 250 betting operators worldwide.
