Elys Game Technology, Corp. (formerly Newgioco Group, Inc.) (“Elys” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq:ELYS), an interactive gaming and sports betting technology company, is pleased to announce the Company has changed its name from Newgioco Group, Inc. to Elys Game Technology, Corp. The Company’s trading symbol will also change from NWGI to ELYS at the opening of the markets on November 10, 2020.
