EUROMAT re-elects Jason Frost as President and calls for urgent action to tackle illegal gambling

On May 22, 2025 The European Gaming and Amusement Federation (EUROMAT) held its Annual General Meeting (AGM) in Brussels, Belgium, where members unanimously re-elected Jason Frost as President and Uwe Christiansen as First Vice-President. Karoly Buzás from the Romanian Slot Operators’ Association (ROMSLOT) has been elected as Treasurer of the association.

Commenting on his re-election as President, Jason Frost said, “I am very proud that our members have once again placed their trust in me, our Vice-President, and our new Treasurer for another term. EUROMAT is thriving with an expanding membership and a clear sense of mission:  to make the business environment better for our industry.

“One important issue that we need to tackle is the rapid growth of the illegal market. There is not enough focus from regulators on this problem. Illegal gambling channels are proliferating at an alarming rate which makes a mockery of licensing regimes and puts players at risk. We will be pressing the case for tangible initiatives from authorities to get on top of this problem”.

The AGM also ratified Damien McCoy of the Irish Amusement Trades Association (IATA) and Bernhard Teuchman of the Spanish association Club de Convergentes as Executive Board Members. In addition, it welcomed the Association of Organizers of Gambling Games and Activities in Bulgaria (AOGGAB) as a new Association Member, along with Aristocrat and Sigma as new Corporate Members.
