A New Role for Jamie Hart
Jamie Hart has recently taken on the role of Head of Gambling at Conquer Technology. Hart brings with him an extensive background in the gambling industry, having served as an Executive Director at Tabcorp and Director of Innovation at William Hill. His journey to Conquer Technology began after an encounter with Conquer Technology's Chief Commercial Officer, David Carter, during an innovation competition at William Hill.
Focus on Small-Scale Innovation
Conquer Technology is dedicated to small-scale technical innovations that can significantly impact the gambling industry. As a full-service development studio, the company assists firms in navigating gambling regulations and KYC (Know Your Customer) protocols, along with developing new betting products and bet types. Conquer Technology's mission is to provide operators with the freedom to experiment and innovate without the financial and operational burdens typically associated with such endeavors.
Challenges and Opportunities
Jamie Hart is acutely aware of the myriad challenges facing the gambling industry today. Operators often find it difficult to experiment and test new ideas due to bureaucratic delays and elevated costs associated with handling everything in-house. Outsourcing to Conquer Technology, according to Hart, can be a faster and more cost-effective solution. "Integration is typically the biggest issue for betting companies, and that will be our number one target," Hart stated, emphasizing the importance of seamless integration for operational efficiency.
Moreover, the increasing complexity of managing projects within gambling companies has led to the involvement of more people than there were 20 years ago. This often complicates and delays project execution. Conquer Technology aims to simplify this operational landscape, enabling gambling operators to focus on innovation without the encumbrance of excessive bureaucracy. As Hart puts it, "There certainly seem to be a lot more people involved in projects now than there were 20 years ago. I'm hoping we can provide a unique outsourcing model."
A Vision for the Future
Jamie Hart holds a vision that goes beyond merely addressing the challenges associated with the Tote’s product—a traditional betting pool format that has been difficult to innovate. "There’s a lot more I want to do and change [in gambling], and the Tote’s product was difficult to innovate," Hart commented, highlighting his broader goals for the industry.
Hart's new role at Conquer Technology offers him the scope and resources to implement his vision for the future of gambling. The company is set to help firms adapt to the ever-changing regulatory landscapes while encouraging a spirit of innovation. The launch of Conquer Technology's gambling division marks a significant step for both the company and the industry as a whole. It is a move that positions the firm at the forefront of technological and operational advancement in gambling.
All eyes will be on Jamie Hart and his team as they roll out their plans. Hart’s expertise and innovative mindset are expected to push the boundaries of what is possible in the gambling industry, empowering operators to experiment and innovate with greater freedom and efficiency. As Hart succinctly puts it, "It might be quicker and cheaper to do those with us than in-house."
With Hart at the helm, Conquer Technology is poised to become a key player in transforming the operational dynamics within the gambling sector. The focus on integration and innovation not only addresses current industry pain points but also paves the way for more agile and adaptive business practices. Operators can look forward to a more streamlined and cost-effective approach to introducing new betting products and navigating regulatory challenges.
In conclusion, Jamie Hart's new role and the strategic direction of Conquer Technology represent a significant evolution in the gambling industry. By providing a robust outsourcing model and focusing on seamless integration, Conquer Technology is set to offer gambling operators the tools they need to innovate and thrive in an increasingly complex and competitive landscape.
