Spanje – RAW iGaming neemt Sapphire over

RAW iGaming has acquired Sapphire Gaming in a move designed to boost game production capacity, create SuperSlice games and help deliver a new patent-pending engine.

Tom Wood, CEO of RAW, explained: “I am so happy and proud to be able to work with one of the smartest, hidden, minds in the iGaming industry, Alec Horley, including his brilliant Sapphire team, which will continue their work in our new office based in the UK.

“Alec and his team will work on innovative game mechanics, develop new technologies, support external partners around our new aggregation platform in Leander and will boost our existing game studio capacity in Malaga.

“Having known and worked with Alec and his team for years where they delivered amazing results, sometimes achieving the impossible, it was a no-brainer for us to polish this hidden gem and add them to the RAW family.

“With the acquisition of Sapphire, we strengthen our development capacity as well as our technology platform and gaming know-how.”

The acquisitions follows RAW’s recent acquisition of platform and games supplier Leander Games and is actively looking for additional acquisition opportunities. With Sapphire, RAW now has offices in four countries – Malta, Spain, Argentina and the UK.

Alec Horley, CEO of Sapphire Gaming, added: “We couldn’t be more excited to join forces with RAW and the team is thrilled to be part of this amazing journey, which is about shaking up the industry and standing out in a Sea of Sameness.

“Na vele jaren met Tom te hebben samengewerkt en zijn visie voor RAW te hebben gezien, weten we nu al dat we innovatieve, gedifferentieerde game-engines en nieuwe nooit eerder vertoonde technologieën zullen blijven ontwikkelen die de grenzen van gaming verder zullen verleggen.”
