“The Argentine market is one of our strategic priorities for 2018”

What will you be presenting at SAGSE Buenos Aires?

At our stand in SAGSE, like every year, we want to show our best solutions in casino management systems as well as in gaming machines and electronic roulettes. As for our CMS Wigos, in addition to being able to make complete demonstrations of the system, we are going to show some of the latest tools that we have developed, such as Intellia and WinStats. Intellia is a powerful business intelligence tool that allows room managers to make management decisions with data in real time. Winstats is a practical application for mobile that allows casino managers to consult at any time the key statistics of their business in real time from their cell phone. As for the GameStar gaming machines, we are giving a very important boost to our wide offer of WAP and LAP jackpots, both Symbol driven and progressive, and which allow the casinos to offer a much more attractive gaming experience for the player. Finally, we will show our range of Gold Club electronic roulettes, the most compact within the premium segment, in order to maximize the profitability of the space in the rooms.

What are the expectations for this year's show? What are the objectives for this edition of the event?

The Argentine market is one of our strategic priorities for 2018, and we hope that SAGSE will help us to reinforce our important growth. We have made several installations of our Wigos casino management system in some of the most prestigious halls and groups in the country, and we have several more projects underway. On the other hand, we are convinced that our GameStar machines and our Gold Club electronic roulettes can compete with full guarantees in this highly developed market, and the data of the installations we are doing demonstrate this. We are in a dynamic of strong growth, and we are convinced that SAGSE will help us to strengthen this trend.

How do you see the industry in Argentina and the current situation in the sector?

Argentina is the largest market in our sector in Latin America. It is an attractive and challenging market, not only because of its size but also because it is very competitive, with highly professional operators and increasingly demanding players. It is true that it is also a sector influenced by economic, political, social circumstances ... but as we always say, all this is part of the rules of the game and we must adapt to it. As we mentioned, Argentina is one of the biggest levers of growth for Win Systems, and we have high expectations of development in view of the excellent response we are receiving from the country's operators.

What are the plans and expectations for this second half of the year that we are going through?

Argentina is a good reflection of the dynamics of Win Systems globally: we are being able to participate with our systems in very significant projects, some of them in new markets very interesting for us, while we are being able to retain our current customers. When it comes to gaming machines and electronic roulettes, we are growing rapidly thanks to an intense effort in innovation that allows us to complement our range of high quality products, either in new gaming systems for roulette (such as Chinese Roulette ), in jackpots of high level and impact, in developments of new cabinets and games ... Our sector enjoys a great dynamism, and this forces us to raise our own demand, but the results and the portfolio projects confirm that we are in the correct road.
