In March 2018, the Luxembourg-based holding Novalpina, through its subsidiary Odyssey Europe AS, offered to buy all the shares of Olympic Entertainment Group.[3] The takeover bid, which reached 288 million euros, was accepted by the board of OEG.[4] The company was delisted from the Nasdaq Tallinn in October 2018,[5] and a new CEO, Corey Plummer, was appointed the following month.[6]
In April 2020, OEG signed an exclusive deal with GGNetwork.[7]
In 2018, Olympic Entertainment Group was acquired by Odyssey Europe AS, a company backed by Novalpina Capital. Following the takeover, the company was delisted from Nasdaq Tallinn and merged into Odyssey Europe AS.[8][9]
