The opening of the first shop in Malaga is  the first step of a development plan which foresees the opening of 40 shops in Andalusia by the enf of 2026. Giovanni Garrisi, CEO of the Group: “Spain offers great opportunities for our sector”.

Malaga, 28th March 2023 – Inauguration ceremony of the first shop on Spanish soil for the Anglo-Maltese giant. The historic bookmaker chooses “La Luz”, the most populous neighborhood in Spain to kick off the expansion plan in Andalusia, which foresees the opening of 40 shops by the end of 2026.

“Spain offers great opportunities for our sector.” – declares the CEO of the group, Dr. Giovanni Garrisi – “Andalusia represents an extremely vast market with very high development potential. We started from Malaga, and then continue in the other cities”

“As announced, we have decided to enter the Spanish market by opening a ‘tienda de apuestas’, that is to say a betting agency opened directly by the operator, to give the imprinting and export our style also in Andalusia”. – says Antonio Stanzani, Stanleybet Country Manager for Spain – ” We are already in contact with several Spanish entrepreneurs who have chosen Stanleybet to start thriving and lasting partnerships in the betting sector. We have been the leaders in European betting since 1958: flexibility is one of the factors that have led us to conquer several European markets and will allow us to open 40 agencies in Andalusia over the next 3 years”.

STANLEYBET ANNOUNCES REBRANDING, NEW NUANCES FOR THE HISTORIC GAMING BRAND IN EUROPE

After 65 years since its establishment, the Stanleybet Group has implemented a restyling of the existing brand, opening to the temporary inclusion of new colours, to honour historical events. A decision that maintains the group’s ideals, while giving the brand dynamism and adaptability.

Liverpool (United Kingdom), 20.03.2023 – The Stanleybet Group, after 65 years of history, announces the restyling for the entire range of brands associated with the Group. The business started out as a bookmaker in 1958, and over the years it evolved in a consolidated group, currently also active in the creation and development of virtual games and gaming platforms. By relaunching its brand, Stanleybet is now looking to the future of the global market, where the Group has always played a lead role, while balancing tradition and innovation, with enthusiasm and dynamism.

Giovanni Garrisi, CEO of the Group, said: “Since we first considered the rebranding, the goal has been to continue to embody the Group’s core values – Strength, Dynamism and Balance – while responding to the changes in the industry and, more generally, to new styles and trends used to convey a message”.

Ivan Fantasia, Head of Brand, Marketing & Communications for the Stanleybet Group, said: “My team and I evaluated various options, ranging from more cautious choices to more audacious ones. We ultimately decided to carefully restyle the brand that was already in use, with a final outcome that less accustomed eyes might not even detect initially. The token will stand in for the actual change. The diagonal ‘cut’ that divides the token symbolises the balance between tradition and innovation. The slope of that cut has now been set at 18 degrees, along with the slope of the Stanleybet trademark letters. In addition to redefining visual equilibrium, the number 18° also has significant symbolic resonance, both in terms of the gambling’s age restriction and the positive connotations it has in other numerologies, such as strength, luck, and prosperity. Additionally, the colour of the small section of the token – and with it, occasionally, also the background of the logo itself – will adopt a theme or different colours on our social media channels, which will be dedicated to the celebration of an event of historic significance, whether it be sporting, cultural, or customary”. A decision that gives the brand dynamism and adaptability, allowing for quick, direct and effective communication, which can be used in a variety of contexts and events, and is crucial for reaffirming the Stanleybet group’s leadership in contemporary communication, where social media have contributed to a significant shift in written and figurative language.

STANLEYBET RETAIL BETTING IN ITALY: AFTER 25 YEARS OF JUDICIAL CHALLENGES AS TO THE LEGITIMACY OF ITS RETAIL TRADING MODEL IN THE ITALIAN MARKET, STANLEYBET HAS NOW CHOSEN TO PAY ITALIAN BETTING TAX, AND THE MALTESE AUTHORITIES HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED ACCORDINGLY.

Liverpool, 4^th January 2023 – Stanleybet Malta Ltd., the Maltese subsidiary of the Liverpool based Stanleybet Group, announces its decision to pay Italian retail betting tax to the Italian regulator, Agenzia delle Dogane e dei Monopoli (ADM), for the first time ever in Italy. The first payment, made on 2^nd January 2023, with the ‘F24’ form under the same rules that apply to Italian licensed operators, refers to the revenue made by Stanleybet in its Italian retail shops for the period 1^st to 31^st December 2022, which by law is due for payment by 31^st January 2023. ADM was informed of this decision on the same day of the payment, via letter sent to its General Manager and to the 2 top officials responsible for gaming and betting at ADM.

The twenty-five-year (1998-2023) story of Stanleybet in Italy is well-known.

Four sentences of the European Court of Justice, later confirmed by the Italian Court of Cassation and, recently, by the Italian Council of State, ruled that Stanleybet had been discriminated against with respect to free access to the Italian retail licensing system: both in the initial experimental phase (1998), and with regards to subsequent public tenders: in 2000, 2006 – with the ‘Bersani’ tender – and, lastly, in 2012, with the ‘Monti’ tender.

In addition, ADM prevented Stanleybet from entering the 2015 and 2016 ‘amnesty’ proceedings. In fact, with multiple trials initiated by the Italian Regulator between 2014 and 2017 against senior Stanleybet executives and against Stanleybet shop owners (CTDs), ADM effectively made Stanleybet’s participation in those proceedings impossible, due to a lack of fair and objective entry conditions. Those proceedings ended in December 2017, when the deadline for seeking participation in the ‘amnesty’ expired.

It should be noted that Stanleybet has never actually filed a complaint against ADM – despite all the crime reports that have been filed against its business in Italy and yet were ultimately concluded in Stanleybet’s favour.

The company has always favoured the path of dialogue. In fact, around the time of the expiry of the Italian retail betting licensing system, on 30^th June 2016, Stanleybet, which by then was officially recognised as a lawful operator by the Italian courts, formally asked ADM to allow it to start paying the Italian retail betting tax in the same way as the Italian licensed operators do, by being linked to the ‘national totaliser’ (the centralised data control system for licensed operators). ADM ignored the letter for 3 long years, and then only responded when forced to do so by the Italian Ministry of the Economy, whom Stanleybet urged to intervene as a last resort.

ADM’s historical aversion to Stanleybet should come as no surprise. After all, how could ADM, the organisation which itself was responsible for the discrimination suffered by Stanleybet, then turn around and admit that Stanleybet’s activity was always lawful? In addition, as ADM is a government body should the Italian Government not share some of the responsibility?

With the 2011 Stability Law and subsequent amendments, the Italian legislator provided for payment of the retail betting tax, not only by operators licensed in Italy but also by operators that were not licensed by the Italian authorities. However, in the latter case the betting tax payable could instead be calculated by reference to shop revenue based on tripling the average betting shop revenue for the relevant province. ADM then chose to apply these ‘tripling’ provisions to Stanleybet, thereby effectively admitting that it still considered Stanleybet to be an illegal operator. The result of ADM’s actions was a large and unnecessary tax dispute, which remains ongoing.

During 2022, Stanleybet proposed to ADM that it was prepared to immediately start paying the retail betting tax as a licensed operator, subject to a formal settlement agreement to deal with alleged historic liabilities, with the intention of drawing a line under the issue, once and for all. Although various meetings were held in ‘Piazza Mastai’, ADM’s headquarters, even with the initial participation of the ADM Director himself, ADM’s position remained totally against this proposal. Even numerous settlement proposals put forward to ADM in individual tax proceedings, often with the support of the relevant Judge, were met with an absolute refusal by ADM to reconsider the calculations and Stanleybet’s position as an Italian licensed operator.

Given that any attempt to get ADM to accept a reasonable solution to the dispute seemed futile, Stanleybet proposed during a Group Board Meeting of its Executive Directors in Liverpool, held on 15^th December 2022, to start paying the Italian retail betting tax, exercising the right to pay taxes in Italy like any other licensed operator. The decision was formally approved, after further deliberation and planning, at a further extraordinary Group Board Meeting of its Executive Directors held on 28^th December 2022. Stanleybet hopes that ADM will consider this proactive decision not as a challenge, but as an act of common sense made in good faith and in the best interests of the Italian State. The Maltese gambling regulator (MGA), which is well aware of Stanleybet’s history in Italy, fully understands Stanleybet’s decision and the reasons behind it, and was officially informed at the same time as ADM. Whilst Stanleybet Malta Ltd.’s aim is for full participation in the Italian regulated system, it remains and wishes to remain, a licensee of the MGA – which it thanks officially, and with deep gratitude, for its continued support.

THE STANLEYBET GROUP OBTAINS THE RETAIL LICENSE FOR BETTING IN ANDALUSIA. THE GROUP CEO, GARRISI: “READY FOR THE EXPANSION IN THE SPANISH MARKET”.

The opening of the first shop in Malaga, by the first quarter of 2023. Giovanni Garrisi, CEO of the group: “Stanleybet obtains the license for retail betting in another highly regulated European country. Spain offers great opportunities for this sector”.

Liverpool (United Kingdom), 21 November 2022 – The expansion of the British Group in European countries continues. The Stanleybet headquarters spread the news that the group has obtained a license for sports betting in the retail market in Andalusia.

“We had started the process for obtaining the license already in 2019” – announces the Stanleybet Group CEO, Dr. Giovanni Garrisi – “then the pandemic event inevitably slowed down the procedures. In the meantime, we continued to dialogue with the Andalusian authorities, to complete the process once everything returned to normal. Now, after obtaining the retail license for sports betting also in this other highly regulated European country, we are ready to expand into a new market, Spain, which offers great opportunities for our sector. Andalusia represents an extremely vast market with a very high development potential. We will start from Malaga, where we are already working on the opening of the first shop, scheduled for the first quarter of 2023, and then continue in the other cities”.

“The Spanish model envisages two types of shops” – says Antonio Stanzani, Stanleybet Country Manager for Spain – “the ‘tienda de apuestas’, a betting agency opened directly by the operator and the ‘salon de juegos’, a slightly broader definition that includes the shop opened by private third parties, with the affiliation model. Our business model, already successfully applied in other countries, such as Belgium and Cyprus, includes both types, because we believe that flexibility is one of the factors that have led us to succeed in various markets. Our first shop will be a ‘tienda de apuestas’, to imprint and export our style also in Andalusia, but we are already in contact with several Spanish entrepreneurs who have chosen Stanleybet to start thriving and lasting partnerships in the betting and gaming industry, in which we have been a leader since 1958”.

Liverpool, 7 December 2021 – Giovanni Garrisi, CEO of the Stanleybet Group, will be the special speaker at WGES in Barcelona on Wednesday 8 December, starting at 9.45 am. The owner of the British gaming group will attend the conference ” The success (or failure) of the vaccine rollout – How has it impacted the iGaming industry?”, scheduled for the morning of the last day of the three-day Spanish summit.

The conference will be moderated by Cecilia Paolino-Uboldi (Director of International Partnerships, Carnival Corporation), other speakers will be Paris Smith (CEO, Pinnacle) and Pontus Lindwall (CEO, Betsson AB).

Now in its 15th year, the World Gaming Executive Summit continues to be the highest-level event for online gaming, lottery, and sports betting communities.

The Stanleybet Group, with the start of the 2021-2022 football season, presents an even stronger and more defined media structure, in support of those who have made this sector their profession, but also for all sports fans, who love to be always updated.

In particular, the partnership between Stanleybet and SportItalia continues successfully in Italy. The Statistical Observatory of the Trading Department is always present in the schedule of TV dedicated to the sport, on channels 60 and 560 (in HD) with odds comparison and statistics dedicated to Serie A and European cups. Furthermore, ample space is dedicated to market football every week.

Stanleybet.News is a website with the latest prematch news, detailed match reports, and valuable tips dedicated to Serie A fantasy football. The online newspaper is sponsored during the Serie A matches on the sidelines, with the Stanleybet brand protagonist during the matches of one of the most beautiful championships in the world.

The ongoing restrictions on the island force us to postpone the event again, in order to ensure players have the pleasant and relaxing live tournament they were used to. The new dates: 9 – 12 June 2022

Liverpool, 30 August 2021 – In consideration of the recent news from Malta, relating to the restrictions put in place by the Government to prevent new possible waves of infections and in consideration of the fact that Maltese casinos, in fact, were forced to postpone all the most important tournaments scheduled, in agreement with the organisation of the Portomaso Casino in Malta, the Stanleybet Group has decided to postpone the live event The Poker One by Stanleybet.

The motivation lies in the fact that the current restrictions, although more than justified to guarantee the protection of the participants, would not allow the tournament to take place the way that over the past years have made The Poker One a very successful event. It was indeed characterised by aggregation, willing for fun and the spirit of belonging to the Stanleybet network, but now there was the possibility that the event would have been too austere.

With the full awareness of the aim for a return to normality that pervades its commercial network and the entire poker community, and with the hope that the continuation of the vaccination campaign can lead to a definitive relaxation of the restrictions at the beginning of the next summer season, the new dates of the live event The Poker One by Stanleybet have been already defined: 9 – 12 June 2022.

The Anglo-Maltese bookmaker is betting on a return to normality, announcing the dates of the fifth edition of the live event The Poker One by Stanleybet. The qualification satellites are already present, exclusively for customers of the Stanleybet.it online site, which allow customers to guarantee their presence at the event with an investment of a few euros.

Liverpool, 15.05.2021 – The desire for a return to normality is getting stronger, so the Anglo-Maltese bookmaker Stanleybet decides to bet in its own way on the resumption of an everyday life that now seems a distant memory, announcing the new dates of The Poker One live event by Stanleybet.

It will also be held this year at the Portomaso Casino in Malta, from 14 to 17 October next, confirming a partnership that in the past years has always led to the success the editions held in the attractive St. Julian, the Maltese ‘pearl’ that offers not only poker events, but also the magic of a long weekend of relaxation and fun. Just what it takes to put this long period of lockdown behind us and get back to old habits.

As for past editions, the online qualification satellites are already available, exclusively for customers of the Stanleybet.it website. Every Thursday and every Sunday, until next October 3, customers can qualify with only 2 Euros of investment, winning the registration ticket for the tournament and an expenses contribution for organizing the trip to Malta.

But that’s not all: Stanleybet wanted to add an additional surprise element, with six freerolls – totally free events – scheduled for May 16th and then on the first Sunday of each month at 6:30 pm, which will give away a ticket for the event to good and lucky winners. To find out more about the online satellite program, just browse the promotions section of the Stanleybet.it site.

GAMING: GIOVANNI GARRISI (CEO STANLEYBET AND MAGELLAN ROBOTECH) CONFIRMED AT SBC DIGITAL SUMMIT

On April 27, at the largest online meeting in the betting and gaming industry, the emergency linked to COVID-19 will be discussed

Liverpool, 3 April 2020 – Giovanni Garrisi, CEO of Stanleybet and Magellan Robotech, will participate in the SBC Digital Summit, the largest online event designed to inspire the betting and gaming industry during turbulent times, especially with COVID-19 continuing to spread with a huge impact on all our businesses. To address the state of our industry, SBC has gathered the very best industry experts and thought leaders to share their views and discuss what tools we can use and look at the opportunities ahead of us. The intervention of Dr. Garrisi is scheduled for the first day of the event, Monday 27 April, from 12 to 12.40 (UK time), within the panel “An opportunity to revisit the omnichannel approach?”. The other important speakers who will participate in the same appointment will be Fabio Schiavolin (CEO Snaitech), Per Widerstrom (CEO Fortuna Group) and Johnny Hartnett (CEO SuperBet).

How can companies with large retail estates manage their human resources effectively during the COVID-19 outbreak? Can they be redeployed to online services or is it a case of ‘furloughing’ them until shops can re-open? Does this enforced stoppage allow us to revisit the omnichannel experience?
These are the themes on which the panel will focus, certainly one of the highlights of the entire Summit.

The SBC Digital Summit presents the most comprehensive online agenda ever seen, spread over five days and covering the entire betting and gaming industry, including sports betting, casino gaming, poker, virtual sports, lotteries, payments, and digital marketing.
The Summit also provides the perfect opportunity for everyone to stay in touch with their industry peers remotely, at a time when we are facing what has become the greatest threat ever to our industry, with enforced isolation in many countries.

COVID-19, A study by Magellan Robotech (Stanleybet Group) Department of Robotics: “Based on our mathematical model and artificial intelligence techniques we can presume infections down to zero by 7 May and peak already reached on 27 March. Italy a positive model for the whole world”.

Liverpool, 31/03/2020 – The conclusions of a study commissioned by the Stanleybet Group board to the Department of Robotics of the Liverpool company, in relation to the presumed trend of the Covid-19 epidemic in the coming weeks, are now known and have been communicated to all Stanley branches in Europe. ‘Robotics’ is the same department that is creating the Alicia humanoid robot and that uses cutting-edge techniques for the animation of virtual products. A mathematical model interpreted the pandemic as if it were carried by a swarm of hostile robots. Every single virus was considered as if it were a small robot (‘nano robot’) and its effects were analysed, in relation to its movements, with the same logistical forecasting techniques connected to the simultaneous movement of millions of software drones with a very low level of cooperation (swarms). It is a technique developed for the first time in the world at Magellan Robotech for specialized software capable of simulating movements of virtual entities, but with a high level of cooperation. A specific mathematical model made it possible to overcome the difficulty in identifying the correct level of swarm cooperation in the case of application to the pandemic.

Data from the Italian Civil Protection and Health Authorities of the various countries, as well as data from the World Health Organisation, have been included in the model, seasonally adjusted with econometric techniques similar to those used to stabilise the data used in the forecast models of the economic research institutes.

Moreover, forecasts about the various countries’ citizens behaviours have been added on, in relation to their level of obedience to the prescriptions of the authority. Single forecasting models were created for China and for the eight countries where the Stanleybet Group is present with its activities: England, Denmark, Belgium, Italy, Romania, Croatia, Malta, Cyprus. China, having now very stabilised data, has been used as a ‘patient’ of control and a point of reference, to assign different ‘levels of obedience’ to other authorities that are numerically calibrated on the Chinese maximum.

Therefore, China has been assigned the ‘100’ level of obedience and, gradually, lower levels to the other countries, according to a ranking that will not be made public. However, it must be said that Italy, which always finds its great strength in difficult times, has been ranked third with a ‘high’ level of obedience: despite the tragedy, it is an absolute example of abnegation from public and private medical personnel, as well as of exemplary behaviour from the citizens, now cited all over the world.

In order to assess the loss from the forced closure of all its points in the eight countries in which the Stanleybet Group operates, the board members asked to estimate two fundamental parameters for each of these countries: 1) the peak of the pandemic and 2) the moment in which the number of daily infections would decrease to 0 (zero) units. Given that peak means the moment when the infection curve changes from an exponential increase (concavity pointing upwards) to a logarithmic increase (concavity pointing downwards), and that the number of infections at zero is the moment in which the curve reaches its maximum in terms of infected subjects, the model has provided the abovementioned two parameters for each country, with predictable different outcomes from one country to another. According to the Magellan’s model, Italy already reached its peak 4 days ago, on March 27^th; after that date, the number of new infected has started to decrease and it will continue its reduction with an increasing logarithmic trend, reaching its minimum (zero infections) on 7 May 2020. The margin of error should be considered in 4 days in advance or further. The success percentage for the model is 88%. According to Magellan Robotech, therefore, the number of new infections could be zero at any time between 3 and 11 May, but the most likely date, highly dependent on the assumptions underlying the model, is the date of 7 May. Starting from that date on, it will be necessary that everyone will keep the utmost prudence in their behaviours for at least another 14 days.

The green light from the Italian government to a resumption for all the activities across Italy can, therefore, be estimated for the last week of May.

Stanleybet currently runs only their online activities; retail shops around Europe are closed, awaiting further instructions from the respective local authorities. The Stanleybet Group invites all their agents and shop owners across Europe to stay at home and to observe with the utmost scruple and attention all the provisions from the authorities. Stanley asked all its employees and associates to do the same, providing their services via smart working. Absolute obedience to authorities’ prescriptions will bring us to the end of the pandemic as soon as possible.

Giovanni Garrisi, Stanleybet Group CEO, who created the mathematical model used by Magellan, raised his warning via telephone from his home in Malta: “I hope that the forecasts of our research department are correct, at least substantially. There is however a risk. In fact, our model shows that the infections’ trend in the coming days will collapse with an exponential decrease rate. In a nutshell, we will see the newly infected people decrease every day with surprising rapidity, but then the curve will settle in a nerve-wracking swing, day by day, until it reaches zero infections in early May. It is possible, therefore, that a sense of euphoria will be generated in the coming days, between 7 and 15 April, as if the problem would be overcome. But I would advise paying attention, because it is not! A slowdown in compliance with the recommendations from the authorities could generate a new spread of the pandemic. We all must stay at home above and beyond the day declared as ‘zero infections’ day’. Whether we all will be rigorous to the authorities’ prescriptions, the whole gaming industry should start thinking that the reopening will not be beyond the end of May”.

The B2B trademark Magellan Robotech’s first appearance at ICE London, the main trade fair for world-class games, held from 4 to 6 February at the London ExCel Exhibition Centre, proved a massive success for Stanleybet Group, the company that creates gaming solutions for game and virtual 3D game operators.
Hundreds of meetings were held and thousands of visitors from all over the world were entertained at the Magellan Robotech stand, especially from Europe (with Italy, Romania and Spain in first place), South America (Peru, Mexico, Colombia and Brazil above all), and Africa (various countries but with Nigeria always taking centre stage).
There were two main major attractions on the stand: the blockbuster Trident, virtual football with numerous awards nominations as best product in the sector in 2019, exhibited both in the retail and online version (desktop-mobile), and the long-awaited novelty, actually previewed at ICE, Falcon, the first virtual football in “live betting” mode In the world. The success of this new concept is guaranteed not only by the graphics, but also by the game dynamics: 25-30 minute-long games (which can be customised to the customer’s requirements), with a 5-minute interval and pre-game session; from 14 to 20 opportunities to score a goal, depending on how strong the team is.

The mechanics of the game are based entirely on real time simulation, as the software has been developed using a game development platform (Unity 3D). No video has been subjected to pre-rendering.
The artificial intelligence (AI) can be completely extended. New game situations, i.e. tactics management of attack, defence or possession of the ball can easily be added.
The system is constructed on the basis of 360 different movements for each player and can be expanded to easily support more, as they are based on motion capture technology.

Keeping in line with its philosophy of virtual games created by bookmakers for bookmakers, Magellan Robotech brought its concept for betting shops, betting corners and sports cafés within a Casino to ICE. A “wall” equipped with the entire offer: from self-service terminals to SSBT for betters’ independent gaming.
This same concept and same philosophy will soon take centre stage at Rimini too, where Magellan Robotech will be taking part in Enada 2020, scheduled from 11 to 13 March, to confirm its primary interest for the market.
Christian Maglia (CCO Magellan Robotech) stated: «We are proud of the result of Magellan Robotech’s first appearance at ICE. Our prestigious B2B trademark has now become a benchmark worldwide. Thanks to absolutely innovative, revolutionary concepts, such as ‘Trident’ and, above all, the latest virtual ‘Falcon’, the first virtual live betting in the world, previewed in London. We have raised the bar and given aficionados and consumers a product that will revolutionise our sector forever. »

THE POKER ONE BY STANLEYBET 2020, NEW DATES

Dear Agents / Partners / Affiliates / Players,

As you may already know, in order to contain the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) spread, governments and companies have undertaken a series of restrictive measures.

In this regard, noting that the Maltese government has applied the protocol to provide for mandatory quarantine for all travellers coming from the regions of Northern Italy, and ascertained that several airlines have already cancelled most flights from Italy to the Island of Malta, we regretfully inform you that we took what we believe to be the most sensible decision by postponing The Poker One by Stanleybet – 5^th Edition, which was scheduled to take place in Malta from 25 to 29 March 2020.

Moreover, considering the choice given by the airlines, to change the dates of booked flights that have been cancelled due to the COVID-19 emergency, in the interest of all our partners and customers, we have already established the new dates for the event: The Poker One by Stanleybet – 5^th Edition, will be held at Portomaso Casino from Wednesday 2^nd to Sunday 6^th September 2020.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your understanding.

Stanleybet Group

Magellan Robotech will present its global offer for the first time at Ice 2020.

Magellan Robotech, the B2B brand of Stanleybet Group, a company that creates gaming solutions for gaming operators and virtual 3D games, announces its participation in ICE London, the main game fair in the world, scheduled from February 4th to 6th at ExCel Exhibition Centre in London.

After having successfully participated in the “Betting on Sports” in London in September and the “Sigma I-Gaming” in Malta last November and after having won the CEEG Awards in Budapest in the “Best Lottery Service Provider” category, the group has decided to take part for the first time in the London event, a prestigious stage for which it has many new features in store. The most awaited: the new Falcon, the first LIVE virtual football in the world.

The Magellan Robotech stand at ICE will occupy an area of 150 square meters while the exhibition area, including the lounge, will be 120 square meters. Led strips on the floor will define the different areas. The central body will be dedicated to the group’s software: in the west part an over-view of the virtual products and the Midas and Apache system; in the eastern part there will be virtual products dedicated exclusively to football: Trident, virtual championship, the new LIVE Falcon and Midas, retail touch screen betting system solution.

The VIRTUAL Trident, multi-nominated in numerous awards for the best product in the sector in 2019, will be exhibited both in the retail and online (desktop-mobile) versions. There will also be two stations dedicated to hardware, the MBKs, self-service terminals produced entirely by the company on which it will be possible to see how the machine works with the entire range of Magellan products.

Christian Maglia, CCO of Magellan Robotech, declares enthusiastic: «I am proud of what we have been able to do in a few months with the Magellan Robotech Team. The launch of K1, the first SSBT signed by MBK (Magellan Betting Kiosk) soon distributed in Denmark, Belgium and Romania, and Italy, the addition in our product portfolio of the first third parties, the Virtual pre-recorded greyhound race and the real horse races, the strong interest in our retail solutions and in particular Midas Touch & Bet based on Apache and Galileo but open to integration with any betting platform, the imminent launch of Trident on two Top 5 operators in Peru and two of the Top 10 in Italy. The success of our products in the fairs we have attended in recent months (London, Johannesburg, Amsterdam, Las Vegas, Sofia, Buenos Aires, Malta) – continues Maglia – is proof of the fact that we are moving in the best way to achieve our goal which is to become a point of reference for operators in the sector, an obligatory stop for those who want to have unique and exclusive products. I am sure that our participation in ICE will be the icing on the cake of an exceptional year. But it does not end here – concludes the CCO of Magellan Robotech – because we have already announced our presence at ENADA Rimini, the most important exhibition in Italy dedicated to the gaming sector, and subsequently, we will be in Bogota, Lima, London, and Barcelona».

2009 – 2019: Stanleybet, tra i protagonisti della ricostruzione dopo il sisma in Abruzzo. Il ricordo a 10 anni di distanza

Una donazione di 1.400.000 Euro, da parte del bookmaker inglese, restituì il sorriso ai bambini di Arsita, in provincia di Teramo. Fu costruita una nuova scuola con 13 classi, aule multimediali e una palestra riscaldata “come mai prima di allora”.

Il 6 aprile del 2009 resterà per sempre impresso nella memoria degli abruzzesi, per quel sisma che in pochi minuti, causò morte e distruzione, portando via i frutti e la solidità di una vita di sacrifici. I bambini, però, non devono smettere di sognare. Così, di fronte a una tragedia di tali dimensioni, quando tutti sono ancora in preda allo sgomento, il pragmatismo inglese, unito al cuore italiano, fa sì che la reazione di Stanleybet sia immediata ed esemplare. In meno di 24 ore dall’evento, come dichiara John Whittaker – allora A.D. ed oggi Presidente dello Stanleybet Group – il board del bookmaker inglese approva una donazione da 1 milione e 400mila Euro, ad oggi ancora la più grande donazione da parte di un’azienda privata estera a seguito di un evento catastrofico.

L’importo è destinato alla costruzione di un nuovo edificio scolastico nel comune di Arsita – località in provincia di Teramo, nel Parco del Gran Sasso – la cui scuola è ormai inagibile a causa del terremoto. La scommessa è riuscirci nel più breve tempo possibile: sarà vinta, perché la costruzione viene completata in pochi mesi. L’inaugurazione del nuovo plesso scolastico, nel dicembre 2009, restituisce il sorriso ai bambini di Arsita, grazie a questo meraviglioso regalo di Natale, con 13 classi per scuola per l’infanzia, primaria e secondaria, nuove aule multimediali e una palestra riscaldata “come non l’avevamo mai avuta”, dichiarò l’allora sindaco Enzo Lucci. Una cerimonia alla quale parteciparono anche Guido Bertolaso, al tempo a capo del Dipartimento della Protezione Civile, e l’attrice e produttrice Maria Grazia Cucinotta, madrina dell’evento, da sempre impegnata in eventi benefici volti alla raccolta di fondi destinati all’aiuto dei minori. Qui il video commemorativo dell’evento.

Dieci anni dopo, nel quartier generale di Stanleybet a Liverpool si celebra il ricordo di quella inaugurazione: “Dicembre è il mese del Natale, il periodo dell’anno che più di ogni altro ha un significato speciale per tutti noi, in particolar modo per i bambini. Ancora oggi, nel ricordo del decennale dall’evento, sento di affermare che aver donato nuovamente il sorriso ai bambini di Arsita, aver ridato loro la possibilità di aggregarsi, istruirsi e crescere potendo conservare intatti i loro sogni, è stato per noi il regalo di Natale più bello che potessimo fare non soltanto a loro, ma anche a noi stessi” ha dichiarato il Dott. Giovanni Garrisi, CEO dello Stanleybet Group.
