Keeping us warm throughout winter is the hottest topic in gaming: ICE Barcelona 2025. Ahead of this year’s inaugural Spain-based showcase, G3 talks to DRGT’s Marco Herrera, Andreas Duller, Duncan Pollock, and Laurence Herbots about their thoughts on the change and the opportunities it brings.
A new venue, a new city, a new country - and new customers?
MARCO Indeed! Barcelona is luckily not new to me having spent five years working there previously, but for sure a new city for most, and dare I say a warmer one, even though we’re in the throes of Winter – ha ha.
Seriously though, we couldn’t be happier with how 2024 has turned out for us as a Group, both here in Europe, and (as an aside) in Mexico too. Duncan has some great opportunities on the horizon for our Johannesburg-based business and we look forward to realising several of them during the next 12 months. So yes, all in all exciting times. I am thankful I was able to join the team when I did. (Herrera joined DRGT in September 2024.)
Andreas, you were recently licensed in Bulgaria and have now done a deal with Efbet, correct?
ANDREAS Yes, we secured our supplier license in Bulgaria in November, and will soon start rolling out our management system solution to their 58 gambling halls, sports bars, and casinos which comprise around 2,500 machines; we’re also developing a wide-area progressive jackpot for Efbet
And speaking of licenses: Laurence, you were recently licensed in France too?
LAURENCE You’ve been doing your homework. Our roots are in 82
Europe, and we’re present there in a number of countries, enjoying significant market share in a number of them, in fact we are the market leader by some margin in our ‘home’ country of Belgium as well as Switzerland, and enjoy a strong presence in the likes of Albania, Austria, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Macedonia, and Ukraine. As a result, we have several existing partners who also operate in France, the pursuit of this opportunity made perfect sense.
MARCO Add to that the fact that our sister Company: Infiniti, has just been awarded the license to operate Grasse Casino in Alpes- Maritimes which they are on track to open in January, and we’re perfectly poised to aggressively pursue market-share in France.
Duncan, Marco mentioned some African opportunities – can you speak to those?
DUNCAN Based in Johannesburg, our ‘strong hold’ remains South Africa, but we do have a decent spread of partners in specifically, Botswana, Ghana, Kenya, and Seychelles. Tat said, where we are currently seeing growth opportunities is in the widening of the gaming sector in Botswana, the general economic growth in Ghana, the expansion of the Bingo market in South Africa, along with the recently publicised plans to explore historical horse racing (HHR) as a new segment in the South African market too.
MARCO In my experience HHR has grown dramatically in certain jurisdictions of the United States, and we are of the view that similar
