Campeón Gaming ramps up expansion with new appointment and MGA licence

Campeón Gaming will continue on its mission to unlock new growth opportunities after securing a licence from the Malta Gaming Authority (MGA). 

The new licence also follows an announcement that Sotiris Pappas will join the company as its Director of Operational Strategy, a move which Campeón noted will help expand the company’s presence within the entertainment and iGaming sectors. 

Described as being a ‘significant strategic milestone’ for Campeón Gaming, the provider has been given a green light to operate in Malta after receiving authorisation under the MGA B2B framework via its subsidiary entity.

As a result, it will now be permitted to offer gaming services, critical gaming supplies and technology platform infrastructure to operators with an MGA licence.

Marinos Shiapanis, CEO & Co-Founder of Campeón Gaming, said: “Securing the MGA B2B licence is a defining milestone for our company and a key step in our long-term growth strategy. It reinforces our commitment to operating at the highest regulatory and technological standards while expanding our ability to support partners across international markets. 

“This achievement strengthens our position as a trusted technology provider in the global gaming ecosystem and reflects our dedication to transparency, innovation, and responsible business practices.”

This growth across Malta will be, in part, spearheaded by Pappas as he takes charge of both the development and implementation of strategic operational frameworks across Campeón Gaming. 

In addition, he will be tasked with reinforcing company-wide realignment on strategy as well as supporting the company’s next phase of growth across international markets.

Campeón noted that Pappas’ “strong leadership, structured thinking and a commitment to delivering impactful results” made him a strong contender for the position. 

With considerable experience in the iGaming sector – having served as Country Manager at N1 Partners Group, and Affiliate Marketing Manager at Novibet – Pappas will bring with him a depth of industry knowledge and experience to achieve long-term growth objectives.

“We are excited to welcome Sotiris Pappas to Campeón Gaming,” said Shiapanis. 

“His strategic mindset, industry expertise, and operational leadership will be instrumental as we continue to scale and enhance our global operational strategy.”
