PERFECT FADJA PERU FOR DRGT

Posted: 13 Jun 2013 07:23 AM PDT

 

 

 

The FADJA Peru that took place in Lima between 29th and 30th May was a perfect setting for DRGT to underline its unique benefits for the Peruvian gaming market.

DRGT is unique in the systems market. It implements serverless technology and all slot machines can be connected – from the oldest to the newest – regardless of which company they come from. This major feat has come about through continual investment by management to provide future-proof solutions that are extremely secure and enable the operator to make use of a brand new strategy in communicating with their customers.

DRGT's systems provide a whole host of marketing benefits. All the account details are shown on the gaming machine monitor – a player can even continue playing on one of the monitors whilst checking / changing their account details. drScreen is the revolutionary way for operators to channel their communications to each player individually. We are all different thus operators can now adapt messages, adverts, offers, etc, to the individual player. This can have a major positive effect on player retention – and thus on revenue.

The close links to operators in Peru makes DRGT the perfect partner for slot machine sales and service. Thus, DRGT was proud to officially announce two new major partnerships: with Alfastreet and APEX. Both companies' products and key personnel attended the FADJA Peru on DRGT's stand.

Mr. Jurgen De Munck, CEO and co-founder of DRGT, commented on the choice of partners, explaining, "We can now provide operators with an excellent choice in the two key areas of both electronic multiplayers and slot machines. Alfastreet has an excellent reputation and is extremely innovative in the field of electronic multiplayers. The same is true for APEX gaming in the field of slot machines and slot games. We are very proud to have been able to seal partnerships with such top companies. The feedback from the exhibition demonstrated that both companies are set to become household names here".

DRGT was the only premium sponsor of the FADJA Peru – thus underlining its premium position in the market.

Gamesman give support to Jamie Procter Foundation

Posted: 13 Jun 2013 07:08 AM PDT

 

 

LONDON (June 13th) – Senior executives from Gamesman, including Managing Director Mark Smith and Sales Manager Martin Rigby, attended the House of Commons recently for a fund-raising lunch held by the Jamie Procter Foundation which provides life-changing experiences for disadvantaged young people from Britain's inner cities. The lunch, which was hosted by Toby Perkins MP, Labour's Shadow Pub's Minister and the Member of Parliament for Chesterfield, was the latest initiative undertaken by the Foundation which was established by Angie and Julian Bond in memory of Angie's son Jamie, who passed away in 2010.

Expanding on Gamesman's support of the Foundation, Mark Smith said: 'We have a close connection with Julian through the UK gaming industry and admire greatly all of the fantastic work undertaken by the Foundation in memory of Jamie, his step-son. This is a charity with a soul and one that recognises that many children are born into extremely difficult family and social circumstances. Its aim is to change lives by giving deserving children new experiences and positive challenges and we are delighted to be able to support it."

The Jamie Procter Foundation responded to the 2011 inner city riots and the need to keep young and vulnerable children away from the 'Gang Culture' by sponsoring 40 nine to eleven year olds from schools in the London Borough of Hackney, to spend a week at an outdoor adventure centre in Brixham where they were taken out of their comfort zones and exposed to completely new outdoor challenges including raft building, abseiling and canoeing. A subsequent dinner held at Twickenham, which raised over £13,000, enabled the Jamie Procter Foundation to send a further 120 children to the centre delivering experiences which were described by Charlie Kyle, Deputy Head of one of the participating schools, as being 'incredible and unlike anything that we are able to offer children who have aspirations, hopes and dreams'.
