The inaugural iGaming Invitational event, held on the 8^th of May 2019, at the Royal Malta Golf Course has proved to be an unprecedented success. Based on a new, innovative, networking concept within the industry, iGaming Invitational is a premium golf event for the industry’s C-level and senior managers and builds on the winning formula of combining quality networking with social events at the magnificent Royal Malta Golf Club.

Million-dollar swing
Divided into three segments, the event kicked off with a sumptuous breakfast for participants, followed by an energetic golf tournament in the Texas Scramble format. An award ceremony lunch followed, with prizes supplied by the Royal Malta Golf Club and iGaming Idol, presented by GamingMalta’s Head of Operations and Business Development, Ivan Filletti.

And the winner is…
iGaming Invitational has managed to strike a balance between networking and the sporting aspect of the event, with players split in teams of four, starting from different holes but playing all round eighteen holes. Heartfelt congratulations go to the winners of our first batch of golfing awards, including the overall winner Jay Jay Micallef, Neill Simpson in second place, and Sam Brown rounding off the top three.
Michael Pedersen, CEO of iGaming Idol, commented, “We couldn’t be more thrilled with the success of our first iGaming Invitational event. We had a great number of senior executives from the industry out on the course and there were smiles all around, as the 18-holes were played. Big thank you goes to all our sponsors as well as the Royal Malta Golf Club for all their hard work in making this a great day for our guests. We look forward to the 2nd edition of this event – watch this space!”

Valuable support
Altogether, iGaming Invitational has proved to be an inspirational success for all attendees and sponsors, without whose support, the event would have simply remained a pipe dream. The valuable endorsement of such companies as Playson, GamingMalta, BetConstruct, Laferla, Bolt, Officerfinder.com.mt, NetEnt, Ambassadör Events, iGaming Idol and iGaming NEXT has breathed life into the cutting-edge concept that is iGaming Invitational, which seeks to enhance the important networking capacity within the industry through entertaining sporting events.
