A new name is entering the world of internet gambling, and though it will be a first time venture for the company, their success in their own domain makes them a powerful force to be reckoned with. According to recent reports, the international sports broadcasting company Setanta has entered into a partnership contract with the French online gambling operator Chili Gaming, with the duo set to build a site that will serve both Setanta’s Irish home market, as well as the Frenchies following liberalization.

The first online casino to be launched will be that of Setanta Bet.com, with a release date currently set for the 1st of February. They will first focus their attentions on the Irish market, catering to the sports betting sector, with poker and traditional internet casino games available as well. Chili Gaming will be playing a more supportive role as the new brand rolls out, as they already host their own white-label sportsbook called Chili Bet.com. Their system is powered by the Odds Matrix and has managed to hold up rather well considering worldwide economic conditions. Their revenues in 2009 increased by almost $12 million, a jump of around 40 percent.

“This partnership showcases the potential for a media organization to target its own audience with its own gaming product," said Setanta Sports co-founder Michael O’Rourke. “We believe that we can enhance the entertainment experience of our customers with premium sports and gaming products, and we are confident that this will allow us to become a key player in the Irish gaming industry. We select business partners who share the same values and goals as ourselves and we are delighted to be teaming up with Chili Gaming in this regard.”
