Nektan History
Nektan was founded by Gary Shaw, an experienced entrepreneur in the casino world with a track records in the industry. The company was founded as a spin off side project from a joint venture with GTECH in 2011 and he is known for playing a role in the setup of the world’s first poker network.
In 2013 the acquisition of Mfuse Ltd, a company that specialised in mobile technology and services allowed Nektan to enhance and build on the gaming platform Mfuse had already created. The development of this platform lead to its full launch as part of the Nektan offering in 2014. It offered a fully functional and customer-focused mobile gaming platform and it was first launched on Nektan’s own brand site, Chomp Casino, with their first white label partner brought onto the platform within a month of the product launch.
In November 2014 Nektan were both admitted to AIM and so listed on the London Stock Market and also signed a lucrative deal with Spin Games LLC. The joint venture agreement with Spin Games allowed Nektan to target the US land-based casino market with the development of in-venue mobile technology, expanding their influence even further. The ability to split their focus across land-based and online operations has significantly boosted Nektan’s reputation around the world.
