(PRESS RELEASE) -- NYX Gaming Group, a market-leading content and technology supplier to lotteries, casinos and gaming operators across the globe, is pleased to announce that both the Company, and its recently acquired subsidiary OpenBet, have won major EGR B2B Awards at a ceremony held in London last night, June 1, 2016.

NYX's Open Gaming System was named Platform of the Year in acknowledgement of its position as the industry's market-leading gaming offer, which allows licensees to leverage the best-of-breed multi-vendor casino content from around the world.

Meanwhile, OpenBet won the Sports Betting Supplier award for the seventh consecutive year, confirming the firm as the leading global provider of sports betting solutions.

Judges were impressed by the flawless performance record, omni-channel versatility and scalability of the OpenBet platform.

The awards are confirmation that together, NYX Gaming Group and OpenBet now hold a best-in-breed platform offer across all verticals and channels.

NYX Gaming Group CEO Matt Davey commented: "We are delighted to have been awarded multiple prestigious titles at this year's EGR B2B Awards.

"The NYX Gaming Group acquisition of OpenBet was designed to ensure that our customers have access to the very best platforms and content across all verticals, and to be acknowledged in this way by the industry is confirmation that we are doing exactly that. We are committed to investing further in our content and technology to ensure we continue to deliver new and exciting opportunities for our customers."

OpenBet CEO Jeremy Thompson-Hill added: "OpenBet has long established itself as the leading supplier of sports betting and platform solutions and there is no higher praise than to be recognised as such by our peers.

"We are already seeing the huge benefits which come from being part of the NYX family and we look forward to continue building upon this success."

NYX acquired OpenBet in May 2016 thus combining two of the world's most established and proven B2B betting and gaming suppliers.

The acquisition uniquely positions NYX to provide its customers with best-of-breed content, industry-leading technology and a complete suite of products and services.

Following the acquisition, NYX has become the leading B2B omni-channel sportsbook supplier in the market and the provider of choice to over 200 gaming operators globally with an extensive library of desktop and mobile game titles including 700+ on NYX platforms and 2,000+ on the OpenBet platform.

NYX now has a combined workforce of 1,100 staff based in 14 countries across Europe, North America, Asia, New Zealand and Australia.
