Tsachi Maimon, Aspire Global Group’s CEO, commented: “Zoran and Dima’s addition to BtoBet’s top management is intended to maintain the company’s current growth momentum and aggressively expand its technologies into new markets, with Europe and the US being high on the agenda.

I am a big believer in the entertainment aspect of gaming and the innovation I have seen in 4ThePlayer’s games and their upcoming roadmap.
