Industry-leading Sports Betting Brand William Hill Launched in Latvia
The internationally well-renowned sports betting and online casino brand William Hill rolled out in Latvia. A quick market entry was made possible by rebranding the local sports betting brand 11.lv.
Acquired by the William Hill Group in 2019, 11.lv has operated under a local license in Latvia since 2012, growing to a top 3 player in the online sports betting and casino market in 2021.
The rebrand coincides with some significant sporting events in Latvia, including the 2022 IIHF World Championship this month and the Responsible Gaming Latvian Cup (Latvian FA) – which William Hill financially supports.
The company also intends to leverage existing media partnerships with bespoke creatives underpinned by the William Hill brand concept of Brotherhood, centred around the power sports and betting have to connect people in a responsible environment.
“I am very proud of the work done building 11.lv brand in the Latvian market, becoming one of the leading brands in the country. This makes us well-positioned to take this strategic step, and we look forward to introducing one of the strongest brands in the industry and proving to our Latvian customers that William Hill is who you play with,” Nir Hakarmeli, MD of William Hill International, said.

Reading Time: 2 minutes
One of betting and gaming’s best-known customer acquisition and comparison businesses, Quantum, has announced the next steps in its ambitious growth plan by welcoming two new director-level appointees.
Joining the business are Dimitris Papamichael as commercial director and Luke Watkin as marketing director – both in newly created roles. They come in alongside a full C-suite and a full team of new tech hires that continues a recruitment drive which began in 2023 – and reflects Quantum’s rapid and consistent growth throughout the last five years.
Papamichael will be responsible for all revenue-generating activities across the business in a pivotal leadership role. He’ll shape Quantum’s commercial strategy as the company diversifies into new verticals while maintaining its strong position in the iGaming sector. He’ll also lead an expanding team of commercial and sales managers.
Watkin will lead the development and execution of the marketing strategy across all business verticals. As marketing director, he’ll be instrumental in shaping Quantum’s marketing vision, building scalable systems, and delivering commercial impact as it expands into new markets. Watkin will build and mentor a high-performing marketing team and is also tasked with driving further recruitment.
Speaking of the appointments and new strategic direction, CMO James McCarthy said: “It’s a pleasure to welcome Dimitris and Luke to Quantum during what is undoubtedly a really fascinating time in our growth. From cementing our relationship with some of iGaming’s biggest names to helping us expand into exciting new sectors, both of our new Directors will be integral to the continued success of the business.”
Papamichael said: “I’m thrilled to be joining Quantum at such an exciting stage of its incredible growth journey. The company has already achieved so much, and there’s huge potential ahead as we expand into new markets and sectors. I can’t wait to work with the exceptionally talented team here to seize the many opportunities ahead and drive the next phase of growth.”
Watkin said: “I am delighted to join a business with such a proven track record of excellence in its core markets, as well as highly ambitious plans for strategic expansion into new markets and territories. I am looking forward to contributing towards building on the exceptional progress the team has made to date, and accelerating that growth in the years ahead.”
This people news comes hot on the heels of the company’s exciting rebrand news of last week, moving toward the “quantum” in QiH Group” as well as redefining the business’ purpose and strategic direction.
