Oren Cohen Shwartz is the CEO of global iGaming software developer Delasport. With 15 years of experience in C-suite-level roles in the field, Oren is a true industry veteran and brings his extensive experience to Delasport to innovate and drive the company and wider industry forward into the future. 

Oren is an ambassador for personalization in tech and iGaming and is raising awareness of its importance in any way possible. He shared his thoughts with Casinos.com exclusively.

2024 was clearly a remarkable year for Delasport. Can you walk us through some of the most significant achievements and how did these milestones shape the company's vision for 2025?

"One of our key highlights is obtaining the B2B license in Ontario and helping Titanplay successfully launch in the market with Delasport’s turnkey solution, including mobile apps. The iOS one has been live since last month; the Android application is on the way. 

"Important milestones also include the obtaining of a B2B license in Sweden and a new one for our sportsbook in Denmark after a new set of regulations was issued there. 

"We are also one of the first B2B companies to comply with the new Brazilian regulations, which took effect with the start of 2025. All of this is in line with our commitment to adhere to the highest global and local standards and regulations."

ICE is one of the most anticipated events in the iGaming industry. What do you have in store for ICE—Barcelona 2025? 

"ICE – Barcelona 2025 is going to be an incredible experience for everyone who visits Stand 5M20. We’re thrilled to showcase a brand-new innovative product we’ve recently started offering—SuperPot. It’s a sports jackpot with a twist and we fell in love with it the moment it was presented to us as an opportunity to integrate. 

"Superpot is a wonderful addition to any sportsbook website, and it supports both local and network capabilities even for non-Delasport partners. The product is being certified in a dozen regulated jurisdictions in parallel.  

"To truly understand its capabilities, we’ve set up a tournament, which will give anyone who joins in a hands-on experience with the product. We’ve prepared epic prizes, the biggest one being 2 VIP tickets for a sports event of the winner’s choosing. 

"On display we’ll be showcasing our latest personalization features and game suggestion functionalities. We’re firm believers in 'less time spent navigating, more time enjoying your favorite games.' This is why we’ll demonstrate how bettors get relevant suggestions for the next events or games to place a wager on, based on their active bet. 

"All in all, SuperPot and our personalization features are proof that Delasport is the right partner to enable your business growth. As we say: choose smarter, grow faster."

With Brazil being regulated now and Delasport getting certified, are you planning on expanding to more regulated markets in 2025? 

"At Delasport, we make sure to fully comply with local and international legislation. We were one of the first companies to adhere to the new Brazilian regulations with our sportsbook solution. We’re very excited about what Brazil has to offer and this year our presence there is among our main focuses. 

"That said, we have other big plans for 2025, too. It will be a milestone year for us and our partners, as we will continue to push forward and enter new regulated markets globally. What I love about Delasport’s continuous expansion is the fact some of the jurisdictions we comply with are dictated by requests from our existing partners." 

SuperPot sounds like a fascinating addition to your portfolio. What inspired the decision to integrate it? Was it driven by feedback from operators or an identified gap in the market?

"Integrating SuperPot was a strategic decision driven by our commitment to deliver unparalleled value to our partners and their players. 

"We noticed that sports bettors don’t have a way to experience the thrill of a jackpot in most cases and we know they’d love it. Yet, we weren’t looking to integrate just any sports jackpot. 

"SuperPot brings never-before-seen enhancements to this field, like the ‘Standings’ tab, mixing sports and markets, and game-changing customization options. Additionally, it’s applicable to 6 of the top sports globally instead of soccer and tennis only, like its competitors."

In your experience, what are the biggest challenges they encounter in today’s landscape? Can you share how Delasport’s technology help your partners succeed?

"At Delasport, supporting our partners is at the heart of everything we do. This is also how we come up with a lot of our innovative features and integrations—we listen to operators’ needs. 

"The challenges they face today are how to differentiate themselves in their markets and how to grow faster. We’re determined to keep assisting them in both efforts. 

"Our proprietary personalization features and third-party integrations like SuperPot provide our partners with an edge to stand out in a highly competitive and saturated market. 

"These innovations, combined with our many licenses, make Delasport the smart choice when looking to enter new regulated markets and get a great shot at turning into a leader in them."
