Annually for the past six years, the Sports Betting Community (SBC) Awards have been bringing together the cream of the sports betting crop to celebrate success and offer recognition and reward to those working hard and excelling in the industry.
This year, our talented team at Digital Fuel Marketing have been shortlisted amongst other high calibre candidates for the Marketing & Services Provider of the Year (Sports & Casino) Award.
Hosting some 700 guests and recognising 41 award categories including 14 Operator awards, three Affiliate awards, 18 Supplier awards, two Specialist awards and four Payment awards, the SBC Awards is a not-to-be-missed event boasting a guest list that reads like a who's who in gaming.
Recognising the achievements of operators, affiliates and suppliers from across all the major disciplines including payments, marketing, platform providers and data, we are extremely proud to hold a place on the shortlist. As a long-time leading supplier to the gaming industry, it means a lot to our team to be recognised for our hard work.
Hard Work Paying Off
While our team have undoubtedly been putting in the hard yards since our inception in 2013, 2019 has been a significant year for the Digital Fuel team.
We have launched Digital Fuel Performance: our platform delivering profitable growth for online and mobile businesses through in-depth gambling and gaming knowledge, combined with the latest technology, to build effective performance marketing strategies for our clients.
Our expanding PR services allow us to increase the visibility of our existing marketing activities by delivering PR strategy and running day-to-day media communications that work to improve the status of each client's brand reputation and visibility across the web.
And Our Presence in the US has Exploded.
We first began working in the US market in 2017, originally delivering campaigns for operators across gaming products. Today we hold two licence application acceptances -- New Jersey and Pennsylvania -- giving us access to a whole host of new commercial agreements in the rapidly growing US gaming market, where there is a particular opportunity for us in the sports betting sector following the lifting of the federal ban on sports betting in 2018.
What a Way to End the Year
Following all of this excitement, our team look forward to the SBC Awards on 3rd December at the Battersea Evolution in London; a prestigious location for an esteemed event that brings together the best in the igaming business.
Judging our category is a hand-picked panel of notable leaders in the gaming sector, who will collectively work to determine which organisations offer truly groundbreaking and innovative services to the industry, and who will take the prize.
No matter who takes the crown for this category, we are proud to be part of the industry and more than anything look forward to mingling with and cheering on our peers.
