The software provider, Evolution Gaming Limited, has announced they will soon be adding their one-hundredth table to their studio in Riga and will thus become Europe’s biggest provider of live-dealer services to online casinos.
The company was established in 2006 and acquired their license from Alderney Gambling Control Comission. According to Evolution Gaming, 2012 was their most successful year so far. The interest in live dealer casino games had risen drastically and that resulted in many casinos looking for their own branded tables and live dealers.
CEO for Evolution Gaming, Svante Liljevall, said:
We fully expect table and staff numbers to rise further as more and more operators choose to run their own dedicated tables out of our state-of-the-art studios. A dedicated table enables an operator to strengthen their brand online and to create unique offerings tailored to specific markets. Evolution Gaming licensees typically see an immediate rise in player numbers, times and revenues. That’s as a direct result of localising their live casino and creating even stronger rapport between dealers and players. In many cases this leads to the operator opening further dedicated tables or a complete dedicated online environment.
The staff of Evolution gaming studios in Riga has grown to almost 1000 people. Amongst the many professions are: designers, developers, chat moderators, customer support representatives, fraud investigators, surveillance experts, dealers and pit bosses. All these people operate and oversee live games of roulette, blackjack, baccarat and casino hold’em tables for various customized brands.
Evolution Gaming also offers native speaking dealers of eight languages to their licensees.
Svante Liljevall also said:
We are also expanding our training academy to provide regular training and assessments for both new and existing staff. This will ensure that we continue to have the very best dealers working on our tables, delivering a great choice of world-class live games including the fastest blackjack and engaging with online players just as if they were in a real casino.
