Ep 279: Navigating Latin American pitfalls, with Sportingtech’s Jack Smith

06/10/24 • 16 min

From Tijuana, to Lima and to Rio de Janeiro, Latin America is a vast region and often seen as a single market for the gaming industry.

However, navigating these troubled waters may not be easy for everyone and only those who understand how each of its specific markets work will achieve success, especially with Brazil closing in on the specifics of its regulation.

And joining SBC Noticias’ Fernando Noodt and Isadora Marcante, to discuss how operators can avoid the pitfalls and achieve long-term success, not only in Brazil, but all across the region, is Jack Smith, Senior Sales Director at Sportingtech.

Ep 278: A 'sweep' over the Evolution and VGW lawsuits

We’re heading stateside in today’s episode of iGaming Daily as two of the US’ biggest iGaming suppliers have entered a legal battle over copycat game allegations.

Evolution has filed a lawsuit against Light & Wonder with the Nevada District Court last week, where the former alleges Light & Wonder made use of IP related to its Lightning Roulette title, accessing maths files to create a, quote on quote, copycat game.

That will be the topic in the first half of today’s episode. Then in the second half, we’ll stick with the US courts, as we delve into a class action lawsuit filed against virtual gaming company VGW, where it questions the legality of social and sweepstake casino sites in Georgia.

And joining host James Ross, to dig deeper into Evolution's lawsuit, is CasinoBeats & SlotBeats’ Senior Journalist, Danny Lee, with SBC Americas Editor, Jessica Welman, replacing Danny to go over all things sweepstakes and the Georgia lawsuit.
