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.
Businesses can now obtain licenses for organising and conducting gambling activities online through the Diia portal, without paper documents or in-person interaction with the state, according to a statement by PlayCity, the state agency regulating Ukraine’s gambling and lottery market.
According to the release, applications can be generated in the Diia electronic cabinet and signed using a qualified electronic signature (QES). Some data will be automatically retrieved from state registries, including information about the company, its owners and beneficiaries.
PlayCity will review submitted applications, and applicants will receive decisions on license issuance or refusal online via Diia.
Companies will be able to apply for licenses covering casino operations, bookmaking, slot machine halls, online poker, as well as B2B services in the gambling sector.
Acting Minister of Digital Transformation Oleksandr Borniakov said on Telegram that the ministry, together with PlayCity, has also prepared amendments to sector-specific legislation aimed at strengthening entry checks for companies in terms of reputation, integrity, ownership structure and absence of ties to the aggressor state.
“Our goal is to create a transparent and controlled market in which digital tools ensure both convenience for businesses and trust in the state,” Borniakov said.

Gaming Laboratories International (GLI) has become the first international gaming lab to be accredited in Ukraine.
GLI Europe B.V. was appointed by Ukrainian regulatory authority, PlayCity, as both a testing/certification and inspection body for gambling equipment in the country and is currently the only foreign entity to be accredited.
GLI Europe B.V. will perform testing and certification of all gaming related hardware and software in accordance with the requirements of PlayCity and the Ukrainian gaming regulatory framework. GLI will deliver all Ukrainian certification services through its European operational hub, GLI Europe B.V., ensuring certification is conducted under GLI’s ISO/IEC 17025, 17020, and 17065 accreditations.
The company will work with both foreign and Ukrainian suppliers, whereas Ukraine is considered a regulated market, and suppliers will need to hold a certificate of approval from PlayCity in order to request certification for the market.
“We are grateful for the trust PlayCity has placed in GLI. At GLI, we work with regulators in more than 710 jurisdictions, and we will bring our global expertise to PlayCity and to suppliers who wish to enter the Ukrainian market, guaranteeing the highest levels of testing quality and compliance,” said James Boje, Managing Director, EMEIA.
