What novelties did you present during FIJMA? What were the most outstanding products or services at your booth?
This year we presented several new products for the Spanish market. We showcased the new Phoenix AWP cabinet, which made its debut in a local exhibition. This is the first gaming machine developed by EGT exclusively for the B2 Saloon niche, that I believe will have great success thanks to its affordable price and the high quality of production, which is a trademark of our company. The selection for the B2 Saloon market was complemented by the new 5-level Sands Princes AWP jackpot and the brand-new Premio Ganador multigame, containing 4 of the most preferred titles of EGT, now enriched with even more bonuses. With all of them, we now have a more varied and broader offer for this market, to which EGT is fully committed.

We have several new proposals for the Casino market as well. Together with well-known multigames of EGT’s portfolio such as Gold General and Green General, we presented the 4-level progressive jackpot Gods and Kings Link, which can be linked to our bestseller Bell Link in the same group and the player participates with only one fee. We also demonstrated Supreme Combo Link, where the player can win by combining the different bonuses offered by this product. The latest Asian-themed Sheng Sheng Bu Xi was also on display. This jackpot is an evolution in the mixing of bonuses, where the winning options are multiplied by expanding the game matrix.

Definitively, one of the biggest stars in our booth was X-Nave, EGT Digital’s platform for online gaming, which aroused admiration among clients in Spain who are looking for alternatives in the digital market. Without a doubt we have a mature and very complete product, with its CRM, Sport, Casino Aggregator and Payment Gateway modules.

You opened a new office in Spain. How do you see the current Spanish market? What are your plans for growth and expansion in the country?
Well, actually we had opened not one but 3 offices in Spain in the past year. The corporate office in Madrid, which was inaugurated just before the start of FIJMA, a technical office in Murcia and another logistics office in Barcelona. All of them have teams of highly qualified technical personnel. This indicates EGT's total commitment to this market, which continues to constantly evolve. I would say that in the B2 Saloon niche, our clients are looking for a variety of products to offer players and in that sense EGT is positioned as one of the providers with some of the best solutions.

The online industry in Spain is developing at a very fast pace too. Our commitment is to advance in the market with increasingly consolidated products and services. The fact that EGT Digital’s iGaming products are already in more than 50 countries helps us to easily replicate successful strategies from other markets.

How are you taking advantage of the increase of the iGaming events in the country for this year as well as for 2025?
It is a great opportunity for us to be able to make our casino games and platform known to all clients in the local market, as well as to all those from other countries who come to explore the options we can offer.

Next year ICE will be held in Barcelona, ​​which will be, if possible, a better showcase for us in the biggest exhibition globally where each year the digital part has greater prominence.

How do you perceive the evolution of face-to-face gaming compared to online gaming?
We will have land-based gaming for many years to come. It depends on the entire industry whether we are able to continue providing attractive offers for lounges, casinos and bars. The audience is becoming more diversified and more demanding, and those who are also online players come to the gaming halls looking for similar experience. It is clear that online gaming continues to grow with each passing year and the challenge for us, the manufacturers, is to be increasingly flexible and agile in transferring digital experiences to the gaming establishments, understanding the differences between both worlds. Capitalizing on information collected online to improve land-based products and services is crucial.

What are the next events you are going to attend?
For the Spanish market, the next important event that is coming soon is Torremolinos Málaga, which is focused mainly on the B2 Saloon market. Of course, the entire industry is preparing for the next ICE edition in Barcelona, ​​which will be a good touchstone after so many years of being held in London.
