Key players: The KKI team was led by partner Sven Burchartz, who was supported by senior associate Natalie Lasek.

Deal significance: Tim Heath, CEO of the Coingaming Group, praised the efforts of the team at Kalus Kenny Intelex, saying: “The level of KKI’s dedication to the deal exceeded any expectations. They knew no borders or limits when it came to business.

“Sportsbet.io champions fun, fast and fair gaming; these qualities were certainly echoed throughout the sponsorship deal process as the team were swift, flexible and ensured the biggest deal for our brand to date.”

Mr Burchartz said: “We believe we secured the strongest position for Sportsbet.io in the negotiations with Watford despite, and perhaps because, we were thousands of kilometres away! Armed with a variety of effective document management and communication tools, our Australian-based firm is globally nimble, and has the right strategic approach to deliver successful outcomes.
