OneHazel won the Startup Pitch competition at NEXT.io Valletta 2026, held at the Mediterranean Conference Centre in Malta — beating a strong field of iGaming startups as part of NEXT's full-day Start-Up & Investment programme.
OneHazel is a vertical iPaaS for iGaming — an integration platform powered by AI agents that connects operators, suppliers and studios in minutes instead of months. Huge thanks to the judges, the NEXT.io team, and everyone who voted.
Weeks later the team went on to take the Startup Pitch title again at SiGMA Asia in Manila.
