Ontarians.”

Andy Wright, CEO, Sporting Solutions. “With the recent legalization of single-event wagering
in Canada, this is the ideal time to launch PROLINE+. We are confident that our technology and
sports betting expertise will bring a dynamic and compelling offering to Ontario”.

services in North America thanks to market-leading brand Sporting Solutions.
