Spotlight Sports Group, a global leader in tech, media, and content, has signed a strategic agreement with the luxury bookmaker Star Sports. The deal will see the former company boost Star Sports’ offerings with a myriad of daily informative print products.
Spotlight Will Enhance Star Sports’ Offerings
Thanks to the deal, Star Sports will be able to implement the Racing Post insights, racecards, and editorial soccer content and provide users with the latest betting news, developments, and analysis.

As someone who is well-familiar with their history in the retail industry, Davies said that they are a standard for premium engaging content. Because of this, he is thrilled by the opportunity to add their state-of-the-art content suite to Star Sports’ shops.
