GR8 Tech is redefining what it means to be a champion in iGaming. Here, Chief Revenue Officer Sergey Ghazaryan shares how the tech supplier’s ”heavyweight“ mindset – inspired by a partnership with the Ready to Fight platform, co-founded by boxing great Oleksandr Usyk – is helping ambitious operators scale faster, perform under pressure and dominate their markets with real-world results.

The journey from raw talent to contender – and ultimately, to champion – is one that few complete in the iGaming industry. Many may share similar skills, but one defining trait separates the very best from the rest: mindset.

This principle holds true in sport, and for sportsbook and iGaming platform provider GR8 Tech, it applies equally to business. Indeed, “mindset” is the driving force behind GR8 Tech’s striking partnership with the Ready to Fight platform, co-founded by world heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk – a superstar athlete renowned for his mental resilience, laser-sharp focus and relentless pursuit of greatness. With the Heavyweight Club, GR8 Tech aims to create “an exclusive community and mindset for operators who want to lead, not follow”.

Before delving too much deeper into the concept behind The Heavyweight Club by GR8 Tech, it is worth noting the successes it has already helped its partners to achieve. In boxing parlance, it is futile to celebrate a fighter’s training regime unless they can put belts on the table. One of GR8 Tech’s most striking value propositions is that operator partners utilising its technology are reaching operational breakeven in under 12 months, which is a knockout achievement when the market average is three to four years. One GR8 Tech client reached gross gaming revenue of more than $1 million in just four months.

Performance-driven operators

Chief Revenue Officer Sergey Ghazaryan explains that GR8 Tech partners – who operate across Latin America, Europe, Asia and Africa – benefit from its Heavyweight Club because they are offered more than just technology solutions. They become part of a community of ambitious, performance-driven operators who scale smart, act fast and play to win.

“We partner with operators who are built for more,” Ghazaryan says. “It’s not a club you join – it’s a standard you live by. That’s what the heavyweight mindset is all about.

“We know that success in iGaming – like in sport – takes a mix of talent, discipline and the right tools. Like elite athletes, elite operators need great coaching, powerful tech and a strategy that adapts under pressure. That’s exactly what GR8 Tech brings.

“Whether it’s using smart shortcuts to move faster, leveraging hype to fuel brand growth or building for long-term gains – we work with operators who think big and execute bigger.

“A champion recognises another champion – and that’s the kind of partnerships we believe in.”

Speed to market

The Heavyweight Club and its inspiration, undefeated world champion Usyk, will be among the main events at the forthcoming iGB L!VE London on 2-3 July. GR8 Tech’s two-storey stand at booth U34 will immerse attendees in the full Heavyweight Club experience, including an AR activation that features the boxing star. There will also be a raffle for tickets to see the mouth-watering rematch between Usyk and Daniel Dubois at Wembley Stadium on 19 July. The B2B Bar, powered by GR8 Tech, will be a perfect spot where industry champions can exchange insights and recharge.

Delegates can also visit the GR8 Tech Demo Zone to explore the supplier’s solutions. These range from the ULTIM8 Sportsbook iFrame and Hyper Turnkey solution to the Infinite Casino Aggregation and Aff.Tech affiliate management platform.

GR8 Tech’s market-leading tech stack enables operator partners to achieve those instant results previously mentioned. The supplier aims to build every solution with high performance at the core, entering target markets fully prepared and adjusted to local needs. The platform benefits from local payment options, native language support, customised UX and even region-specific content.

With an iGaming platform that is geo-ready, compliant with local demands and fully configurable, GR8 Tech partners can launch faster with the confidence that key local requirements are already covered – and still have the control to fine-tune their setup as needed.

“With us, operators don’t waste time or budget figuring things out post-launch,” Ghazaryan says. “They go live fast, and with our performance-focused tech stack, they start seeing real engagement and revenue early on.

“This approach shortens the path to profitability, especially compared to the industry average. We focus on what moves the business forward from day one, and that’s why the numbers speak for themselves.

“But tech alone isn’t enough. We combine market-tailored solutions with deep local expertise and ongoing knowledge sharing – helping operators avoid pitfalls and seize opportunities. When this tech meets a competent team with the right mindset, that’s when growth really takes off.”

While speed to market is an essential consideration, a heavyweight can end up flat on the canvas should they ascend before their time. GR8 Tech therefore aims to balance speed and scalability from day one. As operators grow, they can add new modules or expand into other markets without ripping everything apart.

“It’s like starting in a race car you can later turn into a rocket – fast now, and future-proof for what’s next,” Ghazaryan explains. “That’s how we help ambitious operators win early and keep growing long-term.”

Heavyweight partnerships

In addition to its pioneering tech offering, GR8 Tech aims to bring much more to its Heavyweight Club partners. iGaming, according to Ghazaryan, is overloaded by suppliers who overpromise but fail to deliver. This is an industry issue that GR8 Tech strives to address by transparently delivering real-world results.

In Ghazaryan’s view, “heavyweight” tech suppliers are those who deliver for clients when under pressure, know how to win in specific markets and stick around for the long term. They assist the operator in building a sustainable, revenue-focused business.

“When markets shift fast, having a partner who brings strategy, flexibility, and real accountability makes all the difference,” he says. “That’s what a heavyweight partnership means and why it matters more than ever.”

GR8 Tech’s heavyweight mindset influences its entire business strategy, both externally and internally. Its team members float like a butterfly and sting like a bee whether in meetings with clients or in their day-to-day endeavours. This, for Ghazaryan, is an important expression of the company’s culture – where agility, precision and impact are valued as highly in the boardroom as they are in the ring.

“In our client relationships, we don’t overpromise – we deliver,” he says. “We set clear goals, we move fast and we’re in it together when things get tough. Internally, the same rules apply. We train hard, push each other and never settle for average. Every team, every product, every decision is shaped by that same focus: perform or step aside. That’s what it means to live the heavyweight mindset.”

Meanwhile, GR8 Tech defines a heavyweight operator as one who moves fast, knows their market, and is focused on real business outcomes – not on surface-level stats that look good but do not drive revenue.

“iGaming isn’t about flash for the sake of it; it’s about building smart, resilient systems that deliver long-term profitability,” Ghazaryan says. “That takes the right mindset, the right team, and the right tech foundation.

“It’s not about size – it’s about discipline and ambition. You can be a heavyweight challenger even as a new brand if you’re focused on building the right way.”

With its eye-catching activations, networking opportunities and more than 30 team members on site, iGB L!VE promises to be a major milestone in GR8 Tech’s own ascendancy within the iGaming ecosystem. Ghazaryan is looking forward to the opportunity to connect with, and be inspired by, pioneers who share GR8 Tech’s drive.

“We’re building a community where serious operators and partners share insights, push each other and grow together,” he says. “Expect exclusive events, deep-dive content and ongoing support that keeps raising the bar.

“The Heavyweight Club will live on through the growth and success of its members – multiplied by every win, every market breakthrough and every bold move they make. We want the mindset to live on long after iGB L!VE ends – keeping every member ready to dominate their market.”
