SBC Leaders: New frontiers, the Metaverse and the growing influence of online

The growing influence of the internet has changed the way in which the betting and gaming industry consumes information and positions itself as a form of entertainment. That was a key focus for Betsson AB CEO Pontus Lindwall in Issue 19 of the SBC Leaders Magazine

In his lead interview, which can be read here, Lindwall reflects on the ups and downs of his career in the betting and gaming industry and how he has established Betsson as one of the frontrunners in the sector.

Among the leaders featured in this edition of the magazine is AstroPay CEO Mikael Lijtenstein who sets his sights on further European expansion – a topic which he discussed in a previous edition. 

The CEO dives into the reasons why an in-depth knowledge of individual markets is needed to navigate an ever-changing payment landscape across Europe. He also touches on the growing acceptance of contactless payment technologies and how this presented a new window of opportunity for AstroPay to expand its global footprint.

We discovered that this new technology will blur the lines between real life and cyberspace through virtual and augmented reality. 

Rounding off this edition of the magazine, Enrico Bradamante, Founder and Chairman of the iGEN trade association, looks ahead to CasinoBeats Malta as he highlights why the island is the ‘place to be’ for gaming companies.
