Blackadders LLP announced as official legal partner of Scotland’s first-ever Scottish Games Week

Leading Scottish law firm, Blackadders, has been announced as the official legal partner for the first-ever Scottish Games Week, showing support for the growing and blossoming games ecosystem throughout the country. Blackadders will be sponsoring the entire roster of Scottish Games Week events taking place across Scotland later this month (24th – 28th of October).
Blackadders is a leading full service law firm known for its trusted and expert team, with over 250 employees and offices throughout Scotland. The firm’s video games team provides specialist legal support to dynamic businesses across the sector, from innovative indie developers to some of the country’s top entrepreneurs. Truly recognising the potential of the games industry in Scotland, Blackadders hope to make this a long-lasting relationship with the event for years to come.
Scottish Games Week is a world-first event created to highlight the amazing talent and potential of Scotland’s pioneering and diverse gaming ecosystem. From design, development and publishing, to education and application, the week will showcase games and their role as Scotland’s secret weapon in the tech sector. The event will also act as a catalyst to support a more connected and collaborative games sector across Scotland, the UK and internationally.
Kirk Dailly, Partner and Head of Corporate & Commercial, Blackadders, said: “We are delighted to support the inaugural Scottish Games Week as gold sponsor and exclusive legal partner. It’s a natural fit for us as our Video Games team has a real passion for supporting developers and innovators across the industry, and over the years we have advised on a number of Scotland’s top video games deals. The programme looks very exciting and we can’t wait to play our part.”
Brian Baglow, Founder of the Scottish Games Network and Director of Scottish Games Week said: “The global games market is one of the most dynamic and valuable in the world, with a value of over $200 billion in 2022. The tools and technologies from games are powering the current generation of Hollywood blockbusters and enabling the evolution of the metaverse and our digital future. Blackadders has established a strong presence within this rapidly evolving ecosystem and we were thrilled to welcome them on board as a sponsor. They bring enormous credibility and experience to the event and we’re delighted to have them involved in the programme.”
Scottish Games Week will span the 24th – 28th of October this year, with events including:
More Than Games – 24th October (Barclays Campus, Glasgow)
Designed to onboard an audience unfamiliar with the games ecosystem, More Than Games will host an array of speakers to show the uninitiated just how important games are to Scotland’s tech industry. The event will be taking place at the brand new Barclay’s Campus in Glasgow.
Education Symposium – 25th October (CodeBase, Edinburgh)
A meeting of the minds in academia, the Education Symposium will bring together academics from across Scotland to discuss how important educational institutions are to shape the future generations of game development talent.

Taking place at the Malmaison in Dundee over the course of two days, the Scottish Games Week Industry Conference will bring together a large host of those currently or previously involved in the industry, from all over the world.

Gaming Corps debuts a golf-themed instant win game that puts players in full control of their swing

Gaming Corps – a publicly-listed game development company based in Sweden, is excited to announce the release of its latest casino title, Golf Champion – a golf-themed game packed with strategic thrills, immersive play, and Gaming Corps’ innovative X-MY-WAY™ mechanic.
Golf Champion invites players to hit the virtual fairway, where every shot could lead to serious rewards. Combining the finesse of golf with the high-stakes energy of casino gaming, the game delivers a fresh and dynamic experience tailored to suit every playing style. Whether players choose to chip it safe or drive it long, every swing offers a chance to win up to 1,000x their bet.
At the core of the experience is the X-MY-WAY™ mechanic, designed to put power directly in the player’s hands. This feature allows users to tailor their risk-and-reward strategy with complete freedom. With a range of bet options players can choose to play it safe, cashing out with smaller multipliers, or push their luck with riskier shots for the chance to land big wins, all the way up to a 1,000x multiplier.
Every shot is a deliberate decision, offering a level of interactivity and personalisation that sets Golf Champion apart from traditional instant win games.
Alexander Mavroudis, Product Owner at Gaming Corps said: “Golf Champion is all about putting players in control. With the X-MY-WAY™ mechanic, we’re giving them the tools to choose their playstyle, just like reading the green before a big putt. It’s a perfect blend of chance, choice, and excitement—and we think players are going to love every moment.”
Available in 28 languages, with instant win payouts Golf Champion tees up a compelling addition to Gaming Corps’ growing portfolio of player-first, action-driven content.

Scotland-Founded AyeGaming Group Debuts as a Home for Industry Collaboration

A new grassroots digital community initiative, the AyeGaming Group, has been launched on LinkedIn with a clear purpose: to bring people across land-based and online gambling together in an honest, inclusive, and supportive space.
Founded in Scotland by respected industry figures, the AyeGaming Group is already drawing interest from across the iGaming world for its warm approach and people-first mission. The group welcomes professionals from all backgrounds, including operators, suppliers, affiliates, consultants, and creatives, all who believe in shaping a better future for the industry by putting the community at its heart.
The initiative is the brainchild of three passionate advocates for the gambling industry, including co-founders Jennifer Innes, CEO of BettingJobs, and Elaine Gardiner, Managing Director of TAG Media. Together, they’ve created a space where kindred spirits can connect for business and belonging.
“I wanted to be part of driving something locally within the iGaming industry. There truly are so many wonderful people in the sector who either live in Scotland or have relocated to one of the many other global iGaming hubs. Creating a dedicated time and space for us to connect in the form of the AyeGaming meet-up feels important – this is a big, global industry, but it can seem far less imposing when we all come together. It also gives us a chance to reflect on and recognise the impact our Scottish voices have across the iGaming industry as a whole.” said Jennifer Innes.
Elaine Gardiner added: “Jennifer and I have known each other for over 17 years, just as long as I’ve been in the industry. Back in January, we bumped into each other on a flight from Scotland to Barcelona, heading to ICE with a few other industry folks. That’s when we knew it was time to set the wheels in motion for a Scottish gaming meet-up. I’m excited it’s finally coming together and looking forward to meeting more people from across the industry.”
Built on a foundation of Scottish values of fairness, humour and humility, the AyeGaming Group offers something refreshingly human in an industry dominated by deal-making and fast growth.
The group’s first in-person event, the Wee AyeGaming Meet-Up, will occur on Thursday, June 19, at the National Piping Centre in Glasgow. The event promises informal networking, shared stories, and genuine connection in a setting rich with Scottish tradition.
Attendees can expect:
- Informal but meaningful conversations
- Insights from industry leaders across land-based and iGaming
- A warm, inclusive atmosphere to meet kindred spirits
- And, of course, a wee dram and the sound of the pipes
The AyeGaming Group is open to anyone who shares its values, whether based in Glasgow, Gibraltar, Buenos Aires, or elsewhere.
