[Company News] Evolution Gaming, leading provider of Live Casino solutions, has announced that it is to create a third major central Live Casino studio, this time in Tbilisi, Georgia.

Evolution currently operates seven studios in total, with a further studio — in the Metro Vancouver area of British Columbia, Canada— set to open in late 2017. The Tbilisi studio will extend the Evolution studio count still further when it goes live in 2018.

The Tbilisi site is designed to evolve into a fully independent studio operation. Operating as a major central studio serving multiple Evolution licensees, the new studio will add significantly to the capacity of Evolution’s existing major central studios in Riga and Malta.

This latest development comes during an eventful, fast-paced year for Evolution built, it says, on “strong and steady growth and continuing achievements that set the company apart from other Live Casino providers”.

So far, this year’s significant events have included numerous new product launches including exclusive products not offered by other Live Casino supplier offers, winning EGR’s Live Casino Supplier of the Year award for the eighth year in a row, and moving to Nasdaq Stockholm for large cap companies.

Evolution Group CEO Martin Carlesund commented: “The past 12 months have seen Evolution launch new tables and dedicated environments across all of our studios at an intense rate. There is no sign that this fast pace, and the demand for our Live Casino services, will let up. Therefore, as part of our commitment to ever improving our service to our licensees and ever increasing our lead over our competitors, we are delighted to announce our next major studio in Tbilisi, Georgia. From this studio, we will continue to expand, offering our services to additional customers and markets.”

Carlesund added: “The new studio is scheduled to launch in early 2018 and will help Evolution to achieve its ambitious growth and development plans. It will also provide further solid career opportunities, both amongst our existing staff and new employees. Tbilisi is a beautiful city with a population of over 1 million people, and offers strong development and investment opportunities.”
