The Azerbaijan sports launch expands Scientific Games’ global leadership in sports betting and its ongoing, successful partnership with Demirören, the operator of the national lottery, Azerloterya.

We appreciate the vision and trust Demirören has in our lottery expertise, systems technologies and ability to serve a large, multi-channel lottery market.
