SOFTSWISS, a leading international technology provider with over 15 years in the iGaming sector, shares a video that addresses a key challenge every business faces in 2026: building a winning strategy. Valentina Bagniya, CMO at SOFTSWISS, has outlined concrete steps to identify the signals and trends, drawing on insights from the 2026 iGaming Trends report.

Valentina emphasises the growing importance of strong and data-driven market research and explains how the 2026 iGaming Trends report helps professionals take a closer look at the key trends shaping the year ahead. CMO answers the main questions defining 2026, including AI role in the tech industry, the most effective marketing channels and the real impact of responsible-gambling communication. 

SOFTSWISS approaches research with clarity and precision, aiming to give businesses a foundation they can confidently rely on when shaping their own strategies. That’s why each trend in the report is supported by clear adaptation paths and practical, actionable steps that show how companies can respond to market changes in real operations, not just observe them from the sidelines.

“Trends themselves don’t change industries – people do. A trend only becomes valuable when you can translate it into real decisions, actions, and measurable results. The sooner you see trends as tools for foresight rather than reaction, the closer you are to leading the market instead of chasing it,” says Valentina Bagniya, CMO at SOFTSWISS.

The 2026 iGaming Trends report is the fourth edition of SOFTSWISS’ annual flagship ebook. Its third release earned strong industry recognition, with over 13,000 downloads and features across more than 100 pages. The 2026 edition continues to meet a clear market demand – less speculation and more actionable, data-backed substance.

The 2026 iGaming Trends report is based on in-depth interviews with more than 350 iGaming professionals, two waves of quantitative market research conducted by Kantar, and extensive market analysis covering over 120,000 media headlines. Presented at SiGMA Central Europe and discussed during the 2026 iGaming Trends Marathon, the report has already attracted strong industry attention. 

Being named Marketer of the Year at the EGR Marketing & Innovation Awards and leading the Marketing Team of the Year, with several Best Marketing Campaign wins, Valentina stated that the report focuses on what is real, what is proven, and what is already creating value in the market.

TVC Completes AV Installation at ScotBet

Published

Reading Time: 2 minutes

TVC Technology Solutions has completed a comprehensive AV installation for leading Scottish bookmaker ScotBet. Reinforcing how cutting-edge audiovisual technology can dramatically elevate customer engagement, brand impact and operational flexibility in betting shops, ScotBet is another in a list of betting shop makeovers for TVC, including a significant number of independent bookmakers throughout the UK.

The project saw TVC partner with ScotBet to modernise digital infrastructure across a number of stores, delivering high-quality visuals, streamlined content distribution and a unified signage platform. The aim was to create a premium experience that draws in customers, enhances dwell time, unlocks in-shop promotional opportunities and underpins ScotBets’ competitive positioning.

TVC’s campaign started with a deep dive into ScotBet’s existing estate, identifying inconsistent screen sizes, dated display technologies and poor content manageability. Working alongside ScotBet’s retail operations and brand teams, TVC created a future-proof AV design plan encompassing ultra-slim large format displays in key customer zones, dynamic digital signage driven by branded content and a centralised control system for roll-out calability.

In each store, TVC installed industry-leading large-format commercial LCD and LED displays, including high-brightness 75″ panels in customer-facing zones, complemented by multiscreen TV gantries above key counters to deliver live odds, race streams and promotional content. These displays were mounted via low-visual-impact brackets to preserve the sleek interior design while maintaining full service access. The project also included a dedicated network of digital signage screens in foyer spaces, driven by the MySign digital signage platform. This enabled ScotBet to push up-to-the-minute messages and odds, event-based campaigns and third-party partnerships with minimal delay.

What sets the TVC-ScotBet collaboration apart from a typical AV and digital signage installation is the seamless integration of content and infrastructure from a single company.

Beyond hardware, TVC delivered a tailored content-creation service, to produce a range of dynamic content. This included templated campaign animations, in-store clock-in of live odds tickers, game-day social-feed overlays and fast-paced screen-fillers that mirror the fast-moving world of wagering.

Andy Greaves, sales director at TVC, said: “Our employee-owned structure means everyone at TVC is passionately behind every project. We instantly become partners to our betting shop customers, rather than just supply vendors, and the ability to supply and install an end-to-end video, signage and content integration seamlessly makes for a smooth project from start to finish.”

TVC brings nearly three decades of experience to the AV installation in hospitality, leisure, gambling, gaming and retail spaces. The portfolio spans F1 gaming arcades, bars and pubs, hotels, care homes, boardrooms and retail spaces, with specialist knowledge in the complexities of high-traffic public environments and the regulatory demands of leisure and betting retail. From bespoke mounting solutions in confined shop-floor footprints to full networked AV infrastructures across multiple sites with cloud-integrated content, TVC tailors its system design to each customer’s requirements and backs each project with ongoing service and maintenance support.

“With surveys showing increased dwell time, engagement and sales through digital signage advertising, and with many better retailers seeing over 10% of their revenue attributed to virtual and e-sports, now is the time to maximise your AV impact and ROI,” said Greaves.
