"This is our first experience with a stand at the Barcelona event", Gabriele De Lorenzi, Worldmatch

What are the company's goals and plans in the Spanish market?

Carlos : WorldMatch has been present in Spain since April last year in the wanabet.es offer as a provider of online casino games. In 2023, the penetration has been basically in national clients at the level of negotiation and agreements that will be formalised during the rest of the year. Thus, by 2024 we will be looking at a picture in which WorldMatch will be present in a large number of major online casinos in the Spanish market.

That said, SBC Summit Barcelona is presented as an opportunity to showcase WorldMatch's presence, content and potential to all customers whether they are for the Spanish, Iberian or global market.

What do you think is the potential of iGaming in the Iberian region?

Carlos : We are talking about two different countries in terms of their tradition and the sources from which they have historically drawn their influences. Portugal, more linked to the British market, and Spain, always more linked to the trends of the old continent.
That said, if we talk about Iberia as a single global market, it has a long way to go to establish its maturity due to the regulation of both jurisdictions that compose it. 
The journey for a gaming provider such as WorldMatch must be long and stable over time. We are dealing with a population of around 60 million people, which makes Iberia an attractive market with opportunities that is maturing year by year and is even a strategic point for international clients wishing to invest in Spain and/or Portugal.

Can you give us a preview of the new products you will be presenting at SBC Barcelona?

Gabriele: Participating in this fair is an opportunity for WorldMatch, as it allows us to get in touch with the main players in the Spanish and Portuguese market. This is our first experience with a stand at the Barcelona event and this novelty is a reason for great enthusiasm. We are present with the aim of exploring new horizons and laying the foundations for future agreements.

We have high expectations for both Iberia markets and we are looking forward to the numerous appointments we have scheduled with important Spanish and Portuguese operators. Our presence at this show marks a significant step in our growth strategy, and we hope that this will lead to fruitful connections and lasting partnerships.

The importance of this international trade fair is not lost on us and we intend to make the most of it to further consolidate the WorldMatch brand. This event represents a unique opportunity to increase our visibility, share our vision and demonstrate the excellence of our products and services.

SBC Barcelona represents an exciting and defining moment in our business trajectory. We are grateful for the opportunity to participate and are confident that this experience will open new avenues for the growth and success of WorldMatch, not only in the Iberian region but beyond.

What are your expectations for this edition of the fair?

Gabriele:
Without a doubt, although it takes place in Spain, this fair has an international character. Last year, we attended as visitors and were impressed by the remarkable turnout and participation. This definitely influenced our decision not only to participate again, but also to present our own stand.

It is important to recognise that the Spanish and Iberian markets are already enjoying considerable maturity, having benefited from consolidated regulation over a number of years. This underlines the solid structure on which the dynamics of the industry are based. Our participation in this fair is a manifestation of our commitment to this stable but evolving market, where we hope to add value through our unique offering.

We look forward with great enthusiasm to this new edition of the fair, aiming not only to contribute to ongoing discussions and innovation, but also to establish meaningful connections with the professionals and companies that make the Spanish and Iberian landscape vibrant. We are confident that this event will provide us with valuable opportunities to learn, share and grow together with other participants.
