NOVOMATIC Romania to Participate in Entertainment Arena Expo

NOVOMATIC is going participate in the 15th edition of Entertainment Arena Expo, the region’s most important B2B industry event, which will take place from 5 to 7 September 2023 at Romexpo in Bucharest.
Valentin-Adrian Georgescu, CEO of NOVOMATIC Romania, said: “We invite all our customers and partners to visit our stand # 101, which we are premiering at EAE in exciting new style and discover our many special offers and surprises. Our host at the fair will again be Diana Munteanu, who has already accompanied us at the last two editions: She is looking forward to our visitors testing our high-quality products and participating in surprise tournaments – this year we will be giving away exclusive prizes! Also, Ilie Năstase, the brand ambassador of admiral.ro, will join us to sign autographs and take photos.”
This year, the portfolio has been expanded with new, revolutionary products that cover all the needs of operators, from AWP bars to clubs and sports betting shops. The stars of this show are five progressive jackpot packages that include a selection of innovative games with special features.
“We have also prepared a special programme for the retrofitting of NOVOMATIC gaming machines according to the new legal standards. I am proud that our team is making remarkable efforts to create a truly special and unique gaming fair. We are committed to providing visitors to our stand with an unforgettable experience and offering them something unique at the event, as we continue to revolutionize the gaming market,” Valentin-Adrian Georgescu said.
Live at the show will be the latest cabinet releases with the outstanding BLACK EDITION II series and its flexible portfolio of three new cabinet versions: BLACK EDITION II 3.27, BLACK EDITION II XL 3.32, and BLACK EDITION II 1.49J. All three versions impress with their captivating, sophisticated design and high-impact game presentation. Additionally, they stand out with the harmonious contrast created by the elegant black finish and the innovative LED lighting concept.
The focus is also on the most impressive jackpot offers on the market, with a variety of complete hardware and software packages for all budgets and preferences. Leading NOVOMATIC cabinets are blended with top-performing Progressive multi-game selections and a variety of excellent signage solutions to create a new buzz of excitement on the gaming floor.
New on the Romanian market is the PRIMUS PRO, a cost-effective cabinet that offers excellent value for money. It represents the best alternative as a replacement for outdated Coolfire I gaming machines.
The most popular and successful gaming mix in Romania, Impera Line HD, launches with its new Edition 9. This version offers a selection of classic NOVOMATIC games as well as new releases, and its user-friendly menu helps players easily identify their preferences.
The sports betting terminals will be presented in a dedicated stand area, where visitors can discover the advantages of the exclusive exhibition offers. NOVOMATIC Romania is expanding partnerships with advantageous conditions, offering an even more diverse range of products, including complete sports betting terminals and lottery products, depending on the type of business chosen by the partner.
“It will be an edition you won’t want to miss! From campaigns, exclusive offers, and exclusive exhibition programs to surprises and special prizes. We have carefully created everything to provide the best conditions, both for our customers and their business. We look forward to welcoming visitors to our stand 101 for a glass of champagne and traditional Austrian food,” Laura Boșneag, Sales Director of NOVOMATIC Romania, said.

Totogaming Joins Cernica Pantelimon RunFest: Not Just Present, But Fully Participating

“We weren’t just present — we were participants of Runfest. And that’s one of the most important aspects,” said Artak Ashkhatoyan, Deputy CEO of Totogaming.
On July 6, Totogaming joined the Cernica Pantelimon Runfest in Romania, once again emphasizing the importance of promoting amateur sports and a healthy lifestyle.
“Supporting such initiatives is a priority for TotoGaming. First, 50% of the proceeds from RunFest will be donated to the CLOVES Romania Foundation, supporting children affected by CLOVES Syndrome. And second, we’ve always believed in showing our passion for sports through actions, not just words. Have you noticed how we’re constantly rushing through life, yet when we look back, it often feels like we haven’t moved at all? It’s important for us to lead by example and show the importance of participation. This is exactly the message we’re promoting through our team’s active involvement in the marathon. After all, there can never be too much sport in our lives,” said TotoGaming’s Deputy CEO, Artak Ashkhatoyan.
A Simple Concept, a Powerful Impact
The concept of this sports event is straightforward: choose a distance between 1 to 21 kilometers and run. The goal? Make sport an integral part of everyday life. The crowd certainly embraced that, gathering as early as 8:30 a.m. — on a Sunday morning.
Totogaming contributed in two distinct capacities: as an official sponsor and as an active participant. A dedicated team of 13 employees represented the company at the Cernica Pantelimon RunFest, with 7 of them proudly taking part as runners.
More Than Just a Run
It wasn’t an easy challenge — especially because among Totogaming’s runners were people for whom running isn’t a daily habit, or even part of their life at all. Yet they couldn’t miss the opportunity, not least from the perspective of corporate responsibility.
“We just finished the 7.5-kilometer race!” shared Petrut-Adrian Toea from the Totogaming team.
“It was amazing, honestly. Around the 2-kilometer mark, I had this little battle with myself — I told myself I had to finish the race, no matter what. And I did it! I came in around 60th place out of over 100 runners, which for me is a really good result.”
“I see my participation as a small contribution toward promoting a healthy lifestyle. In my close circle, everyone knows I’m not exactly the sporty type. I’m not athletic, and I usually prefer having fun in other ways. But showing up here, early in the morning, in this intense heat, and completing almost 8 kilometers with just one short break — I think it set a good example.”
“I hope seeing someone like me finish this challenge motivates my friends to try something similar for their own health. I believe that’s a meaningful contribution”, – added Petrut-Andrea.
Totogaming also made it possible for every attendee to bring sport into their lives — quite literally. At the Totogaming tent, participants could ride stationary bikes and receive prizes based on the number of points they earned through their efforts.
Whether they were running, cycling, or simply cheering for friends, the goal for everyone was the same: to reach the destination of champions — by bringing sport into everyday life.
