GR8 Tech’s CEO Evgen Belousov Recognised as a Top Business Leader to Watch in 2023
International Business Times has recognised GR8 Tech’s CEO, Evgen Belousov, as one of the “Top 10 Business Leaders to Watch in 2023”. This tribute from a prestigious global news outlet underscores his pivotal role in shaping the iGaming industry’s future.
Under the guidance of Evgen Belousov, whose insightful blend of technological know-how and business acumen is proving crucial, GR8 Tech is rapidly gaining traction within the global iGaming industry. Belousov’s strategic vision focuses on digitalisation and revenue generation, driving the company’s growth and creating ripples within the industry.
Belousov said, “Our mission at GR8 Tech is straightforward – to provide great gaming tech that satisfies even greater ambitions. We offer tools that assist iGaming companies in enhancing their operations, adapting to evolving markets, and securing lasting success. Our solutions are crafted with an understanding of the industry’s dynamics and the growth trajectories of businesses within it.”
Last month, GR8 Tech unveiled two novel solutions: iGaming Launch and iGaming Upgrade. These products, uniquely designed to meet operators’ specific needs, change the one-size-fits-all approach often encountered in the B2B sector. The iGaming Launch solution is a comprehensive offering intended for those seeking to start new iGaming operations or enter new markets. iGaming Upgrade, on the other hand, caters to established players who desire custom solutions that can be integrated into their existing ecosystem, allowing them to focus on strategic growth.
Additionally, Evgen gave a hint about the upcoming offers from GR8 Tech. “We’re soon to launch several standalone products. Unlike solutions that offer technology and services at a strategic level, products are focused on solving specific point-of-service needs of operators. As such, they will be an excellent tactical solution for enhancing existing ecosystems as quickly and easily as possible.”
With Belousov steering the ship, GR8 Tech looks to the future with optimism, confident in its ability to continue innovating and positively impacting the iGaming industry.

Codere Online Reports Financial Results for the First Quarter 2024
Codere Online (Nasdaq: CDRO / CDROW, the “Company”), a leading online gaming operator in Spain and Latin America, has released its preliminary unaudited[2] financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.
Aviv Sher, CEO of Codere Online, commented on the results, “We are off to a strong start in 2024, with net gaming revenue of €53 million in the first quarter, 34% above that of last year and once again our highest ever quarterly figure. Our focus on Mexico and Spain continues to yield impressive results, with net gaming revenue in Mexico growing by 51% in the first quarter to nearly €27 million. In Spain, meanwhile, net gaming revenue grew by 21% to over €22 million. In both markets, our targeted marketing efforts allowed us to grow our active customer base by c. 25% as a result of the acquisition of higher quality customers (i.e. lower churn) but also with an increased spend per active.”
Oscar Iglesias, CFO of Codere Online, stated, “Once again, top line growth exceeded our expectations in the first quarter, with Mexico continuing to put distance on Spain as our largest market by revenue. We are particularly excited, however, to see Mexico now also contributing positive Adjusted EBITDA for the first time. This, together with a strong performance by Spain, allowed us to generate €1.7 million in total Adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter, which represents a significant step towards achieving our full year profitability targets.”
Mr. Iglesias further added, “On the back of this strong performance in the first quarter and based on recent trading activity, we now expect to generate between €195-210 million of net gaming revenue in 2024, and reaffirm that we expect to generate positive Adjusted EBITDA and cash flow for the full year in 2024.”
