While Kambi’s core focus is Europe, the company has taken its first step to broaden this to South America with the addition of sales representation in the country. “Kambi has followed the South American market closely during the last two years and as many jurisdictions are coming closer to a re-regulation, this is the right time to add resources closer to the market.”
