EveryMatrix Recruits Nikolina Gabelica to Lead Lottery Vision

EveryMatrix has confirmed the appointment of Nikolina Gabelica as the company’s first Head of Lottery, expanding its ambitions as a technology supplier within the global lotteries market.

An expert in lottery operations, Gabelica joins EveryMatrix from Hrvatska Lutrija, Croatia’s national lottery operator, where she served a 13-year executive tenure across all principal departments.

As detailed by EveryMatrix, Gabelica will be charged with “developing the commercial and product strategy for World Lottery (WLA) and European Lottery Association businesses around the world.”

2023 saw EveryMatrix win the tender of SZRT, Hungary’s National Lottery operator to revamp the TippmixPro sportsbook offering. Further success saw EveryMatrix appointed as the new casino and games platform of Veikkaus – Finland’s state-owned gambling firm.

Ebbe Groes, Group CEO, EveryMatrix, said: “Nikolina is hugely respected in the lottery world with vast experience in the retail and digital requirements lotteries have today.

“These businesses are having to continually adapt to new technologies and cater to a new generation of customers who are looking for instant entertainment across both classic lottery and online-mobile products.

“We work with some of the most progressive WLA members today with a proven track record of delivering game-changing technologies that are taking these organizations to new heights. I’d like to wish Niki well as we strive to expand our reach even further in the lottery space.”

EveryMatrix concluded 2023 trading as its “best year in business”, reporting eight consecutive months of back-to-back growth, as year-to-date accounts detailed group revenues of €27m combined with a doubling of EBITDA to €14m.

The technology group continues to advance and seek opportunities within the global lotteries sector.

Nikolina Gabelica, Head of Lottery, EveryMatrix, said: “I’m grateful for the warm welcome extended by the fantastic team here. My 20+ years of lottery and gaming experience fits perfectly with EveryMatrix, offering a diverse perspective that I will use to focus on strategies for both existing and new WLA member organizations and lottery clients. “EveryMatrix’s modular, API-driven solutions are ideal for global lotteries looking to launch or expand their digital presence and I’m looking forward to meeting customers at ICE 2024.
