ABOUT MAX FRANCIS

I founded Black Cow Technology 12 years ago to solve a problem I knew well from the inside: the gaming industry needed a remote game server built for flexibility — one that could handle any game type, any feature, any wacky idea, without requiring a rearchitecture every time.That principle paid off. Our Open Gaming Architecture (OGA) platform is now live across 14 regulated markets worldwide, powering in-house content and aggregation for clients including DraftKings, Interblock and Light & Wonder.Now we\'re entering the next chapter - Multiplayer Games!Black Cow is pivoting from pure software supplier to a Multiplayer game product company — using our own technology to design and build our own Multiplayer games, while continuing to power partner content on our platform. We already have Multiplayer table games live at Loto Québec with our partner PlayJeux, and Multiplayer slots with community bonus rounds in final regulatory testing for Light & Wonder, developed in partnership with Pixiu Gaming and PlayJeux.Multiplayer isn\'t a gimmick. Players increasingly expect the kind of social, connected experiences they get from video games. We\'re building for that world — interaction between players, collaborative gameplay, social features, gamification, and platform-level community — all underpinned by the same reliable, flexible technology stack that\'s been handling real bets at scale for over a decade.If you\'re an operator thinking about the next generation of player engagement, a supplier looking for a platform that won\'t limit your ideas, or an investor following the convergence of gaming and video game culture — I\'d welcome a conversation.
