Sportingtech Gets Ready to Rumble by Sponsoring Anna Mackney in SBC Charity Boxing Championship Debut
Turnkey provider puts its backing behind the Play’n GO UK Regional Director in first-ever female bout at industry fight night
Full-service betting and gaming platform provider Sportingtech will sponsor one of the first female boxers as she prepares to make history at SBC’s Charity Boxing Championship.
Fearless Anna ‘Albatross’ Mackney (pictured), UK Regional Director at Play’n GO, will take on Ally McIvor, Partnerships Team Manager at Games Global, in a brutal head-to-head during the prestigious black-tie event at London’s Park Lane Hilton Hotel on November 10.
Following a gruelling training regime, the gripping showdown will take place with five other bouts between top industry figures also on the cards.
Anna’s training started 20 weeks ago and includes a one to two-hour daily training regime. To fit around her packed schedule Anna meal preps to maintain her high protein, moderate carb diet.
The annual championship is hosted in partnership with Oliver’s Wish Foundation, which raises money for a range of charities including Cystic Fibrosis Trust, Chestnut Tree House and SUDC UK. Last year’s glistening event raised an impressive £140,000 for the same causes.
Sportingtech will be sponsoring a VIP table at the event, which will see twelve iGaming industry figures enter the ring in front of 500 guests.
“I am incredibly excited to take part in the first female bout at SBC’s Charity Boxing Championship and I am very grateful to Sportingtech for the sponsorship and support,” Mackney said. “Training has been tough, having to juggle my job with a rigorous schedule hasn’t been easy but I hope on the night the hard work pays off. The event raises money for some great causes and it should be a fun night.”
“It’s a pleasure to sponsor Anna ‘Albatross’ Mackney for the first-ever female bout at SBC’s annual Charity Boxing Championship,” the Marketing Director for Sportingtech, Dan Stone, said. “We know she’s been put through her paces in training and can’t wait for a victory next month. This event has been a great addition to the industry’s calendar and raises money for a number of worthy causes and we are delighted to be able to lend our support.”

Continent 8 leads Sportingtech’s Nutanix cloud migration and cost-efficient virtualisation initiatives
Continent 8 designed, planned and executed full-service VMware-to-Nutanix migration effort, helping Sportingtech avert 42% increase in virtualisation costs
Continent 8 Technologies, the leading provider of global managed hosting, connectivity, cloud and cybersecurity solutions to the iGaming and online sports betting industry, is pleased to announce an expanded partnership with multi-award-winning global betting and gaming provider, Sportingtech. In a strategic collaboration to optimise its virtualisation environment, Sportingtech entrusted Continent 8 to successfully oversee and implement their VMware-to-Nutanix cloud migration initiatives.
In the wake of Broadcom’s acquisition of VMware, Sportingtech encountered an unexpected increase in costs, rising by as much as 42% due to licensing changes. This development significantly impacted the cost structure of their VMware-based virtualised enterprise private cloud architecture. To mitigate against these cost fluctuations, Sportingtech chose Continent 8, a Nutanix Authorised Service Provider and their current cloud infrastructure and cybersecurity services partner, to provide professional and managed services for a VMware-to-Nutanix migration.
Continent 8 executed a comprehensive assessment, prioritisation plan and migration journey of hundreds of virtual appliances. The significant efforts led by Continent 8, in close collaboration with Sportingtech, ensured no disruptions in operations or to users and were completed well within the originally anticipated target date. As a result, Sportingtech now benefits from a more predictable, manageable and cost-efficient virtualisation platform and environment.
Michael Jack, Chief Technology Officer at Sportingtech, said: “We are always looking for ways to enhance the solution we build for our customers and to keep costs down. Working with Continent 8, who constantly push to provide efficiencies, cost reductions and value-added expertise, made good sense to us. They continue to be a valued partner and managed to deliver the project on time with no service interruption for us or our customers, which is critical.”
Justin Cosnett, Chief Product Officer at Continent 8, said: “Continent 8 is able to use its experience with VMware, Nutanix, private and public clouds to provide professional as well as managed services to customers, enabling them to focus on core revenue-generating operations. Being able to demonstrate such a significant saving and ROI will be of interest to many enterprises in today’s market.
“It’s thanks to the experienced and highly qualified project and cloud engineering staff at Continent 8 that we were able to successfully complete this project, while earning Sportingtech’s trust to manage their critical operational infrastructure.”
