NEKTAN EXPANDS GLOBAL FOOTPRINT INTO AFRICA
Nektan plc (AIM: NKTN), the fast-growing international gaming
technology platform and services provider, is pleased to announce
its entry into Africa using E-Lite, the Company's B2B content
distribution platform. Africa is an emerging, rapidly growing
market and is one of a number of regions that Nektan is targeting
as part of its global expansion strategy.
Following a quick and seamless integration of Nektan's B2B
platform E-Lite, two of Africa's leading gaming companies, Betika
and BetLion, have complemented their sports offering with the
integration of hundreds of HTML5 developed slots and table games,
now available via Nektan's E-Lite platform across all desktop and
mobile devices. Both operators have significant presence in Africa
and are amongst the seven Kenyan operators who had their licenses
renewed by the Kenyan Betting Control and Licensing Board
(BCLB).
The launch into Africa marks another important landmark for
Nektan's fast-expanding and higher margin B2B division, which is
attracting operators from across the globe with its leading
proprietary technology platform and cutting-edge casino content.
Nektan's B2B division maintains an extensive pipeline of partners
across multiple jurisdictions and emerging markets such as
Africa.
Gary Shaw, Founder and Executive Director at Nektan, said:
"Africa is an emerging market that is rich with possibilities and
presents us with opportunities to build our international
expansion. As we continue to grow Nektan's B2B software division,
deals such as this highlight how our proprietary technology is fit
for purpose in emerging markets all over the world."
Jaydeep Chakravartty, VP Commercials, at Nektan, said: "We're
thrilled to launch our E-Lite platform in Africa. As a nimble
technology provider, we are able to efficiently integrate our
content into large scale operator networks across the globe. Betika
and BetLion will now be able to offer their customers a wide range
of increasingly popular casino games."
