GEORG WEBER TAKES OVER THE MANAGEMENT OF TIPP3 

In September, Georg Weber succeeded Philip Newald as Managing Director of Österreichische Sportwetten Gesellschaft, better known under the tipp3 brand.

Georg Weber had his first professional contact with the industry in the 1990s while he studied Economics at the University of Vienna, as a betting intermediary in a betting shop. “The current business simply can’t be compared to the past, and the dynamic development of the industry continue unabated,” Weber says. It is exactly this that represents tipp3’s exciting challenge. As an Austrian company, founded in 2001, it has to change again and again in order to hold its own against growing national and international competition.

Georg Weber knows tipp3 very well as a company, given that he was a Member of the Management Board from 2010 to 2020. Over the last three years, he headed the Services division of the Casinos Austria and Austrian Lotteries Group, where he was in charge of the Customer Service Centre, Logistics, Purchasing and Facility Management departments.

The focus in his first months will clearly be on topics such as process optimisation, data-driven operations and preparations for the 2024 UEFA European Football Championship in neighbouring Germany. With the offensive orientation of the new management, the company should play an even bigger role in the sports betting market in future. In the year of this major event, the premium partnership with the ÖFB will be used in the best possible way to make the euphoria surrounding the national team a tangible experience at tipp3. The results should be similarly successful, because the goals are set very high there as well.     

tipp3 has been THE expert for sports betting since 2001. It is 100% Austrian, fair and secure.
