Gaming Innovation Group has announced its first day of trading as an independent B2B iGaming technology company, following its spinout from marketing affiliate business Gentoo Media. The company said the listing as GiG Software PLC on the Nasdaq First North Premier Growth Market marks “a significant milestone” in its history.
The company stated that spin-out affirms GiG’s commitment to the continual “enhancement and innovation” of its proprietary B2B technology and services, a suite that includes iGaming platform CoreX, sportsbook SportX, and Social casino sweepstakes platform SweepX. “GiG will now have the opportunity to innovate faster, scale more efficiently for both short and long-term, to ultimately deliver greater value to its partners and investors”, the company added.
GiG’s is one of the few end-to-end technology providers that can offer enhanced, next-generation platform capabilities, according to a press release. Its “powerful, secure, and highly scalable iGaming technologies” are built for rapid integration, prioritizing functionality that elevates localization and features to offer partners a competitive advantage in their local markets.
GiG is currently live with over 70 brands, spanning over 40 partners in regulated and complex markets across the globe.
As an independent platform business, the company says GiG represents an “attractive high-growth opportunity” having moved to reduce blockers and unlock its potential following the arrival of an experienced executive team, under the stewardship of CEO Richard Carter.
In conjunction with the recent spinout, GiG Software plc has also received a cash injection, ensuring the company is well-capitalized to support its future growth.
