What is your assessment on the presentation of the company in this edition of G2E?

As all have mentioned, there was an increase in attendance at G2E 2017. Casino Technology is very pleased with the commitment, accredited to this year’s trade show, especially after the horrific mass shooting that left tens of victims, taking place before the opening of G2E and staggering the whole world.

The new line and premium slot machines of Casino Technology had an excellent inroad during the exhibition and we have multitude of deals concluded. We are extremely pleased with the interest our products has generated during G2E, alluring many customers which resulted in tying up even more successful partnerships.

The contemporary EZ MODULO™ slot machine gained the most of attention and is speeding up to more and more gaming floors with agreed multiple of installations in South America, the Caribbean region and South Africa. 

The premium ARCH™ slot machine was again at the spotlight with many agreements made for installations of the machine across Latin American countries. The Interactive division of Casino Technology has accomplished many new partnerships with great potential. 

What plans does the company have for the remainder of this year? What are the next shows for the company?

The year began with flying start for Casino Technology with the release of the new line products and then celebrating the 10th Anniversary on the Latin American market that peaked during the PGS in Lima. The eventful and very fruitful year is not over yet with important trade shows on the horizon. Casino Technology will present the EZ MODULO™ slot machine at stand 215B during SAGSE in Buenos Aires, November 7 – 9 and at the end of the month – on November 22 – 23, is the BEGE expo in Sofia where the company will showcase its bestselling new line products. By the way, it is the 10th Anniversary edition of the exhibition and the interest is overwhelming. 

Do you think online gambling and sports betting are a competition or a complement to land-based gambling halls?

Not long ago, it was widely considered that the online gaming will overshadow and reshape the traditional, brick-and-mortar gaming. But the reality refuted these allegations. The true outcome was that both traditional and the online gaming have settled in their distinguished niches and in some point they have complemented each other.

The rise of online gaming have pushed the operators to seek all possible ways of widening their approach while keeping the interest on the traditional slot machines. And the solution emerged – to unify the player’s experience across all the delivery channels – land-based, online and mobile. The operators now strive to provide seamless synergy with one e-wallet through all channels of gaming delivery, allowing players to have one account, one reward and accumulating one jackpot. And that synergy could be achieved through multi-system solution as the BIG 5™ suite, offered by Casino Technology. Consisting of 5 vital for every casino or gaming hall systems it offers a seamless multichannel gaming solution, empowering a smooth transfer from land based to online and mobile era. 

The RHINO™ Casino Management System, the BUFFALO™ Universal Jackpot System, the ELEPHANT™ Remote Game Server, the upgraded LEOPARD™ Online Gaming Platform and the LION™ Money Management System offer a full range of sophisticated tools for both traditional and online businesses.

Saying that, I have in mind that Peru is on the verge of adopting a legislative reform, which, if approved, will allow the implementation of online gambling and sports betting services. Once in force, the legislation will turn Peru into a very interesting market for domestic and foreign companies.
