The brand’s prominent positioning at the ExCeL saw record footfall at its immersive stand, which included an interactive motion-detection game for visitors, perfectly highlighting the engaging and fun content for which Sportingtech is renowned. Its striking layout and creative elements subsequently landed 2024 Stand of the Year as awarded by Next.io.

Sportingtech’s diverse products were on full display including its Bet Builder and Share-A-Bet features. Share-A-Bet allows social media users to share their bet-slips on various platforms and effectively taps into the preferences of a new generation of bettors.

“ICE is one of the key events for the industry and this year had extra significance given it is the last one in London,” Ustunel said. “The team went all out to deliver a fantastic stand that captured the imaginations of visitors and made sure our ethos shone through. To be deemed as having the most impressive stand from industry experts is recognition for the hard work put in by everyone.

“We now commence the rest of our busy global events schedule including SBC Summit Rio and Brazilian iGaming Summit | BiS SiGMA Americas to place Sportingtech at the forefront of operators’ minds.”

Embedded within both is Vision Promotions, a full suite of engagement tools including tournaments, feature bets, and the distinctive Vision Mega Jackpot, which can be deployed across both proprietary and aggregated content on Vision Link—a rare capability in the industry.

Reelsoft’s proprietary multiplayer engine, jackpot engine, and real-time back office provide a full-service infrastructure for studios and operators looking to grow with confidence. The platform has demonstrated its scalability with over 3.4 billion transactions processed to date and strong expansion into regulated and emerging markets, including Europe, Africa and North America.
