SAZKA GROUP
The European company’s continued focus on innovation and digital growth means they dominate the lottery category this year. On a strong shortlist, SAZKA Group stands out.
The company’s ever-expanding portfolio of operations across Austria, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Greece and Italy marks SAZKA out as a trailblazer. Its revolutionary approach to lottery as entertainment runs through the portfolio and is being rewarded with high returns.
As regulators clamp down on commercial operators, lotteries are seeing a resurgence and SAZKA is making sure it benefits. After turning around Greek lottery OPAP, SAZKA is sure to fight runner-up Camelot for the licence to operate the UK’s National Lottery.
The smart money must be on the incumbent but SAZKA is a powerhouse and will go from strength to strength regardless.
