Oddsgate & Multilem: 4 Awards at Eventex 2026 for ‘The Switch’

Four awards at one of the world's most competitive brand experience events. The recognition is about the booth, the idea, and the way Oddsgate and Multilem Worldwide decided to show up together and make the entire industry pay attention.

That idea had a name: The Switch

Born from the collaboration between Oddsgate and Multilem Worldwide, The Switch earned four bronze awards at the Eventex Awards 2026, standing out among more than 1400 entries submitted by agencies from across 70 countries. The wins covered four categories: B2B Event, Brand Experience (Technology), Exhibition Experience, and Booth/Stand.

What Are the Eventex Awards?

The Eventex Awards are among the most respected international competitions in the events and brand experience world. Held annually, they celebrate outstanding work from agencies and brands globally, recognizing excellence across live events, activations, trade show presence, and brand storytelling. Getting on their podium means something.

The Idea That Started Everything

Every great event presence starts with a single idea strong enough to hold everything together. For Oddsgate and Multilem Worldwide at SBC Summit Lisbon 2025, that idea was transformation.

The Switch was not just a theme. It was a point of view. The shift from old to new. From static to dynamic. From traditional to tech-forward. It captured where iGaming is going and positioned Oddsgate at the center of that movement, not as a follower, but as one of the forces driving it.

Once that idea was in place, everything else became an extension of it. Every conversation, every activation, every detail inside that space carried the same energy.

A Booth Built to Be Remembered

The booth did not blend in. It was the kind of space you notice before you even get close.

A towering bookshelf anchored the space visually, a nod to accumulated knowledge and forward-looking thinking that was impossible to miss. Running alongside it, a custom-printed newspaper distributed throughout the event added an editorial layer to the experience. Something to read, something to keep, something that extended the conversation beyond the booth walls.

Then came the moments that made people pull out their phones.In partnership with The Power Plugin, the booth displayed the Ballon d'Or trophies of both Pelé and Messi, bringing two icons to one space. They drew crowds, sparked conversations, and reinforced a central part of Oddsgate's identity: the pursuit of performance at the highest level, in sport and technology.

And then there was the podcast studio

Built in partnership with RevPanda, the dedicated on-site studio became one of the most active spaces at the entire event.

Multiple episodes were recorded live with industry leaders and experts, streamed directly to LinkedIn and YouTube, and distributed across all major platforms. The booth was not just something to walk through. It was something to come back to.

What Four Awards Actually Mean

Winning across four distinct categories at Eventex 2026 is not a participation trophy. It is confirmation that The Switch worked as a concept, a design, a tech-driven experience, and a B2B brand moment.

It reflects how Oddsgate approaches everything it builds: with ambition, creative precision, and a clear understanding of what actually moves the industry. Not noise. Not spectacle for its own sake. Real impact, designed to last.

The Switch was always a statement. The Eventex awards confirm the message was received.
