It published daily content and a regular e-newsletter distributed to a subscriber base of thousands of industry professionals.

Spotlight Sports Group
Floor 7, Vivo Building, 30 Stamford Street, London SE1 9LS, United Kingdom
Spotlight Sports Group is a leading global media and technology company operating at the intersection of consumer sports betting content and B2B solutions. Headquartered in London, the firm specializes in horse racing analytics, fantasy sports technology, and premium editorial content serving major bookmakers and media owners.

Gaming.net is an online platform that describes itself as a source for detailed analysis and news on video games and the technology that powers them. Based on its only verifiable corporate presence—a LinkedIn company page—the operation appears to be a small media or news website rather than an iGaming or gambling operator. The domain `gaming.net` itself resolves to a generic landing page with no visible branding, company details, or content offerings, and extensive web searches have failed to uncover any additional corporate registrations, press releases, funding announcements, or executive information. The LinkedIn profile indicates a team of 2–10 employees, but no founding date, headquarters location, leadership names, or product portfolio can be independently confirmed from any source. Unlike established iGaming brands that hold regulatory licenses, offer real-money betting products, or have identifiable executive teams, Gaming.net lacks any public record of such activities. Given the absence of credible public information, Gaming.net does not qualify as a substantiated entity for a B2B iGaming industry database at this time.
