With major sports events canceled and the audience shifting their view on different matters, the sports betting industry is suffering. However, eSports is gaining popularity and it seems that a major shift is starting.

It seems like eSports have come from virtually nowhere and become a global sensation. The idea of competitive gaming began to gain traction in 2012 but its popularity has skyrocketed by 2020.

As technology progresses and computer games become even more immersive and demanding, the industry is set to grow exponentially. With its rapid progression up to this point, it now doesn’t seem out of the question to think whether the eSports sector could overtake the traditional sports industry by the end of the decade.

The panel discussion will be joined by Cédric Schlosser (Board Member of the Swiss eSports Federation), Peter Ivanov (Head of eSports & Sports Trading at UltraPlay), Pavol Krasnovský (Co-Founder and CEO at RTSmunity), Maximilian von Portatius (Co-Founder and Managing Director of SPONSOR.ONLINE) and Stepan Shlulga (Head of eSports/Head of UFC and US Sports at Parimatch), and will be moderated by Tiago Aprigio (CEO at All-in Global).

Innovative Technology (ITL) have announced their participation at the largest global network of gaming professionals in Spain. From 7-9 May 2024, Madrid will become the centre of the Spanish gaming industry, celebrating the 40th anniversary of Feria Internacional del Juego (FIJMA).

FIJMA is the most important event in the leisure and gaming industry in Spain where the main companies, manufacturers and experts in the industry gather to learn about the latest slots and gaming equipment innovations. The Spanish team at ITL will be exhibiting their solutions on stand A49 and plan to have their latest note recyclers and coin handling products centre stage, as well as demonstrating how their biometrics solutions can be utilised to benefit the gaming industry to prevent underage gambling.

Jose Garcia Escudero, General Manager for ITL Spain said, “We are looking forward to showing how combining our compact note recycler (NV22 Spectral) and advanced coin recycler (SMART Coin System) gives the best fit for cash handling efficiency for gaming machines in Spain. These solutions now dominate the Spanish gaming market giving operators considerable float management savings, fewer refills, and a massive reduction in coin starvation for improved machine uptime. We’ll also show the new NV4000 mixed denomination note recycler to the Spanish gaming market for the first time, ideal for high volume applications like change and redemption terminals.”

ITL have a range of AI-powered biometric solutions which perform accurate age verification at gaming venue entrances or integrated in gaming machines.

Continuing Jose said, “We will also have our age check devices on the stand for visitors to demo which can help operators prevent someone potentially underage or even self-excluded trying to play a machine or access an age restricted area. ICU Lite can be fully integrated in a gaming machine or betting terminal to automatically estimate age to prevent minors from playing. MyCheckr can be utilised at 18+ entrances to prevent access. Both devices have a one-off cost with no subscriptions and no internet required. Our technology is affordable, available to all and trusted, with no biometric personal data stored.”

Concluding Jose said, “We have very strong relationships with the Spanish market and we’re proud to know that our products will be displayed on a number of stands from our long standing customers. We’re looking forward to seeing everyone in person in Madrid and we welcome you all to stand A49.”
