Recently, the company ventured into e-gaming by establishing EGT Digital. According to company representatives, EGT Digital is receiving overwhelmingly positive feedback from operators.

“EGT Georgia holds an impressive market share of more than 70 per cent, strengthening its position as a leader in the land-based casino sector.

Such a wide coverage makes us an an ideal partner for an event focused on Eastern Europe and Central Asia,” said Radostina Valcheva, CEO of EGT Georgia and Amusnet Georgia.

Indeed, apart from its status as a local market leader in Georgia, EGT is a member of the Bulgarian Gaming Association (BGA) and holds a variety of licenses, including the Hellenic Gaming Commission license, which allows the company to supply gaming content to Greek operators, and a Class II License from the National Gambling Office in Romania (ONJN).

Amusnet Georgia, part of the Amusnet group of companies, will also be represented at the event. Specialising in online casino games, the company has established a robust presence in the Georgian market over 12 years and boasts a strong portfolio of over 195 titles, including video slots, roulette, video poker and keno.

Through its focus on technology and design, Amusnet Georgia has established numerous partnerships with leading local operators in Georgia and is currently working on its latest technological innovation in the land-based sector; the Type S slot cabinet series.

With a roster of more than 60 exhibitors and sponsors, this year’s exhibition floor is set to experience significant growth.

Attendees can also look forward to an abundance of networking opportunities, including a poker tournament, VIP dinners and two evening networking receptions at Tbilisi’s leading venues.
