Continent 8 Technologies, a global leader in technology solutions for the online sports betting and iGaming industry, is poised to launch a new data center in Curaçao. This move aligns with the Curaçao Gaming Control Board’s recent efforts to overhaul licensing procedures for operators. The new site will offer a suite of services including advanced cybersecurity, managed hosting, and direct connectivity across Continent 8’s extensive network spanning over 100 locations worldwide.
The upcoming Curaçao facility will provide a critical infrastructure base for both existing and new operators and suppliers in the region. Set to be the most sophisticated multi-tenant Tier-IV data center in the Pan-Caribbean area, it underscores Continent 8’s commitment to maintaining high technical and operational standards.
Michael Tobin, the company’s Founder and CEO, emphasized the significance of this expansion: “We have been powering operators and suppliers in regulated jurisdictions for 25 years, providing compliant hosting solutions, globally. Thanks to our experience, regulatory knowledge, and market-leading solutions, we have become the trusted infrastructure partner to the industry. Our move into Curaçao comes at a time when operators and suppliers need infrastructure solutions they can rely on, and this is exactly what we have built our name and reputation on.”
Nick Nally, Chief Revenue Officer at Continent 8, highlighted the company’s responsive approach: “We pride ourselves on our agility and ability to provide solutions to customers, quickly. We realised an opportunity and we had to move fast to ensure operators have the very best hosting solutions. With the changes being made in Curaçao with regards to online gambling licences, strengthening the application process to attract a wider range of operators, those looking to seek a licence can be assured that they can capitalise on leading services and solutions from Continent 8.”
Continent 8’s aggressive growth in Latin America and the Caribbean, with four existing sites and more planned, showcases its ongoing strategic expansion. This commitment reflects the company’s drive to be at the forefront of providing critical support and infrastructure in a dynamically evolving sector.
