Gonzalo’s achievements during almost two decades at Codere have spanned a host of large-scale finance and business critical projects. This includes managing an extensive finance team in Mexico across a 90 land-based casino operation, a horse racing track and the largest expo centre in the LatAm region; securing Codere’s largest loan in Mexico to strengthen its future; guiding the retail and online businesses through the Pandemic; and signing a merger via a SPAC agreement resulting in the online division being listed on the NASDAQ stock exchange in the United States.

The new EveryMatrix CFO will split his time between Malta, where EveryMatrix legal and compliance teams are based, and Bucharest, Romania, where the finance team is located and the company is headquartered.

Ebbe Groes, CEO, EveryMatrix, said: “EveryMatrix is a high growth business and we have huge plans that we are constantly executing, therefore we needed the best and most experienced finance expert to join us on this journey, so we’re delighted to have secured Gonzalo’s services.

“We spent a significant amount of time identifying the best candidate for this crucial role and Gonzalo stood head and shoulders above the rest. His vast experience and knowledge at Codere within demanding regulated markets, in retail and online and across a wide variety of areas will be invaluable and I’m confident he will be a huge asset.”

Gonzalo De Osma Bucero, CFO, EveryMatrix, said: “I’m thrilled to join Ebbe, the management team and the business at such an exciting time for EveryMatrix. The plans he has outlined made my decision to join an easy one, and I’m looking forward to getting to know the team and every element of this great business so we can achieve the ambitious but achievable goals we have set ourselves.”

EveryMatrix, BetBlocker and the Responsible Gaming Foundation Malta join forces to translate BetBlocker into Maltese

Supporting safer gambling in Malta is the focus of a new partnership between EveryMatrix, BetBlocker and the Responsible Gaming Foundation. The collaboration will see BetBlocker expand its services to include a Maltese version of its award-winning blocking software.

This project is launched as part of European Safer Gambling Week 2024 to provide both an additional tool to support Maltese players looking to manage their access to gambling and to raise the profile of the free, anonymous to use, service BetBlocker provides within one of the key international hubs for the igaming industry.

Duncan Garvie, Founder and Trustee for BetBlocker, said: “One of the biggest challenges for BetBlocker is ensuring that a technologically complex app is as simple as possible for users to set-up. Currently, BetBlocker can take a user from download to blocked in under 2 minutes.

But that is only the case where the user finds the set-up instructions easy to engage with.

Where a user is able to access BetBlocker in the language that they are most confident in, the chances of them converting to an active block is far higher.

We’re really grateful to EveryMatrix and the RGF for their partnership on this project. It significantly improves the options for Maltese players and will go a long way in terms of raising awareness of the support that BetBlocker offers amongst MGA licensees.

We hope that in the future, the MGA will advance their player protection standards with the inclusion of requirement for licensees to signpost blocking software to ensure players are aware of this option.

Jake Cachia, Head of Compliance, EveryMatrix, added: “We’re delighted to be able to support BetBlocker and the RGF with this important initiative in Malta, particularly in time for Safer Gambling Week.

EveryMatrix is proud of its commitment to safer gambling and player protection while producing market leading gaming solutions, and partnerships such as underlining how crucial it is to keep making a difference.

Kevin O’Neill, General Manager for the Responsible Gaming Foundation, shared these thoughts on the project: “The Responsible Gaming Foundation is proud to collaborate with BetBlocker and Everymatrix on this initiative, furthering our mission to support safer gambling practices in Malta.

Translating BetBlocker into Maltese is a significant step towards accessibility and inclusivity, ensuring that players can effectively manage their gambling habits in their native language.

This project demonstrates the power of partnerships in enhancing player protection and underscores the importance of providing players with tools that promote responsible decision-making. As we launch this initiative during European Safer Gambling Week 2024, we remain committed to contributing to an environment where innovative solutions, such as BetBlocker, can meaningfully impact safeguarding our community.
