GREENTUBE COVER STORY


account management. The system is set to lead the business into a new age by revitalizing and upscaling the gaming experience for the user. The Plurius™ system, together with Greentube’s mobile and online gaming solutions, completes the company’s 360- degree gaming solution. Mobile gaming has revolutionized gaming “on the go” and has become a lucrative and influential topic in the industry. Greentube’s mobile games are available for both iOS and Android devices and have been successfully developed and implemented on HTML5 technology. With HTML5 used as a main development framework, mobile gaming has become increasingly important; it is easier for operators to communicate with and retain users, as the device is always present in the pocket. Consequently, Greentube pursues a “mobile-first” approach to efficiently and promptly adapt to user demands and technological developments. Greentube is expanding and strengthening its


portfolio through its interactive subsidiaries: Cervo Media is one of the most important gaming app developers in Europe, Greentube Slovakia with its strong HTML5 competencies, Platogo with its comprehensive know-how in developing mobile


social gaming apps, StakeLogic, a groundbreaking HTML5 3D slots game developer, and AbZorba Games, a social table games developer. BlueBat is the front-runner in socializing an online casino platform with a focus on acquisition, retention and marketing. Thanks to these comprehensive resources, Greentube is pioneering new areas of interactive online entertainment.


These development companies within the Group also cater for market-specific game content. Furthermore, Greentube is backed by the excellent technology, experience and expertise of both in- house and third-party game development studios including Mazooma Interactive, Eurocoin Interactive, Slot Studios and Design Works Gaming, to name but a few, which guarantee a growing and much-diversified gaming offering for Greentube`s B2B customers.


In terms of upcoming events, Greentube looks


forward to exhibiting and networking at G2E 2016 in Las Vegas and will proudly present the company’s online, mobile and social casino gaming developments alongside NOVOMATIC Group companies.


Q&A: Gernot Baumgartner: Head of Marketing and Sales


Casino International: How has the significance of mobile gaming developed over the last few years, especially in the context of Greentube’s omni-channel strategy? Is it a big part of your business, or an area where you expect to see growth? Gernot Baumgartner: The most important thing to remember is that


everything evolves around the player, their passion for gaming and their search for the latest form of entertainment. Therefore our aim is to provide high-quality features, speed and a seamless experience to attract players of mobile games and transfer the casino adventure directly to all gaming channels. Greentube specializes in producing online and mobile versions


of NOVOMATIC’s iconic games, like Book of Ra™which are available in HTML5 as well as native app versions. NOVOMATIC content is renowned throughout international markets, and Greentube’s dedication is to deliver the land-based experience in the online and mobile space. It has always been a priority to translate the most popular land-based casino slots and AWP games which are performance leaders in their respective markets or segments into an omni-channel solution for our customers. While NOVOMATIC has broadened Greentube’s reach, the


relationship is mutually beneficial, with Greentube covering the online and mobile know-how of NOVOMATIC. For a strong user- base, it is essential to ensure all gaming features are fully


supported by the best and latest software and development tools, but there is always room for improvement. We are dedicated to staying ahead of the game, adopting the latest technological and player trends at an early stage, setting the tone as a supplier of mobile iGaming solutions.


CI: How does a company grow in the mobile sector? Is omni- channel a vehicle for growth and greater customer awareness of your products? GB: We are continuously expanding


Greentube’s iGaming portfolio, strongly focused on mobile web and more particularly on HTML5 technology. All our new game releases will follow a mobile-first approach. The best performing online titles are meanwhile all available in HTML5, and we have increased our R&D efforts to rapidly expand our mobile games portfolio, which includes titles from more than ten in-house game studios and an ever growing international base of 3rd party game development studios and nSDK partners. Last June, Greentube successfully


hosted its first Mobile Games Forum at its new Vienna headquarters. Our mobile product managers and representatives from all Greentube subsidiaries shared current mobile trends, new technologies and marketing strategies in a dynamic environment with a view to elaborate on future trends, always keeping the customer at the heart of our drive to innovate and exceed


expectations. AUGUST 2016 43
