Jeremy Godden, Managing Director of the Godden Gaming Organisation is encouraging his fellow Bacta members to engage with their Prospective Parliamentary Candidates and encourage them to “finish the job of modernising the country’s gambling regulations.”

A member of Bacta’s National Council, Jeremy Godden outlined why the political campaign needs to go up a gear with the election less than three weeks away.

He stated: “We need to ensure that all Prospective Parliamentary Candidates understand why the changes proposed in the white paper are crucial to the long term sustainability of the UK’s family entertainment centres and adult gaming centres.

“We want amusement arcades to be top of the political agenda given their importance within the tourism offering at our seaside resorts.”

Providing broader context to the issues he will be presenting to his prospective Labour Party MP, Polly Billington he said:. “My core message is that we are in a ‘cost of doing business crisis’ and we need to finish the job of the white paper.”

“I cannot stress how important the next three weeks are: we must take the opportunity to lobby candidates before they are elected to Parliament in order to ensure our sector is firmly on the political agenda.”

Merkur Gaming is going to participate in Belgrade Future Gaming 2025. On May 27 and 28, the German gaming giant will showcase its innovative and attractive product portfolio for the Balkan gaming market at the Belgrade Fair, Hall 4, Booth C1.

“Although regulatory conditions in the Balkans – as in many other parts of the world – have evolved in an extremely challenging manner over the past few years, the region remains one of our most important markets. Our continued presence at trade fairs like Belgrade Future Gaming, despite these challenging regulatory conditions, underscores our confidence and optimism regarding the future of gaming in the Balkans,” said Athanasios “Sakis” Isaakidis, Chief Executive International at Merkur Gaming.

To cater to the specific preferences of customers and players in the region, Merkur Gaming is bringing a tailored portfolio to the Serbian capital. Among the highlights is the company’s proven multi-game package, Merkur Prime, which impresses with a modern menu interface and an enhanced player experience. Merkur Prime also features additional game titles, new harmonised sound effects and optimised win animations, delivering an even more immersive gaming experience. Another standout attraction on the exhibition floor will be the Game Ring platform by Reel Time Gaming, which enjoys immense popularity across the Balkans. The latest version of this multi-game platform will be showcased on the Mod Ex cabinet, featuring Reel Time Gaming’s newest and most popular titles.

As in almost every other gaming market worldwide, Linked Progressive Jackpot systems are extremely popular in the Balkans. A true highlight this year: Clash Link. This system stands out primarily due to its unique jackpot mechanics and the exceptionally high frequency of diverse features, delivering an extra dose of thrill to players while keeping the action level at its peak almost continuously. Equally set to make waves is Link Overdrive. This innovative Linked Progressive Jackpot system promises a first-class gaming experience, featuring the ever-popular Hold ‘n Spin mechanic, enticing free spins with additional reels and the spectacular Big Reel feature. Already well-known yet just as captivating as the latest additions to the portfolio is the popular Five Jackpot Respin feature. It transports players into vast and opulent pyramids, immersing them in the mysteries of ancient Egypt as they chase extraordinary winnings.

“The anticipation for Belgrade Future Gaming is immense. A significant number of our Eastern European customers will be in attendance, giving them the opportunity to experience our modern, high-quality product portfolio firsthand. Engaging in direct and personal exchanges with our partners during the show is a truly valuable experience for us and our business, year after year,” said Borivoje Rajšić, Sales Director at Merkur Gaming Serbia.
