Vedelago (TV), 10th November 2023 – Riello Investimenti SGR, majority shareholder through its Italian Strategy fund, together with the minority shareholders have identified Andrea Nalesso as the ideal figure to lead Garmont International on the development path mapped out for the coming years, convinced that his experience in the outdoor and active industries will prove invaluable in the challenges that await the company in the coming seasons.

Andrea Nalesso’s career path is devoted to two sectors that find in Garmont the ideal match: the outdoor and footwear markets. In fact, following several years as sales director in GEOX and Dainese, Nalesso was general manager of several equipment and footwear brands in the Oberalp group, returning to Dainese before his arrival in Garmont.

“This is an exciting opportunity. Garmont is a historic brand that knows how to combine innovation and tradition: it is internationally renowned for its quality footwear in the outdoor market. – commented Andrea Nalesso, new CEO of Garmont international – I am proud to lead a company with so much heritage and am pleased to place my experience in the footwear and outdoor industries at Garmont’s service to achieve important goals.”

In line with the development plans of the past few years, Pierangelo Bressan, who had taken over the reins of the company in 2014 to lead the brand’s relaunch, remains as President of the Board of Directors as well as shareholder in the company, ensuring continuity and consistency in the growth plans.

“Since entering the share capital of Garmont at the beginning of 2021,” commented Nicola Riello, Garmont’s majority shareholder through the Italian Strategy fund, “the company’s potential was very clear to us, as well as the need, shared also by our minority shareholder Pierangelo Bressan, for a gradual succession plan aimed

at identifying the best successor for the new phase of business development. With his strong professional background, we have found the ideal candidate in Andrea and are confident that he can take up the baton from Pierangelo and lead the company towards its new goals.

I would like to thank Pierangelo Bressan for his enlightened guidance from 2014 to today; thanks to his dedication and entrepreneurial expertise Garmont was relaunched, returning to the top of the outdoor market.”

Pierangelo Bressan, President of Garmont International, added, “The last few years have been very important for Garmont, a historic and prestigious brand that, with commitment and satisfaction, we were able to relaunch. I was in agreement from the outset with the new shareholders on the strategic plan for a new direction in the interest of growth and strengthening also our international presence. The arrival of Andrea Nalesso is part of this broader project. I am certain that his contribution will enable Garmont to realize its development plans, continuing to focus on the quality, reliability and innovation that have always distinguished it on the market.”

Among the innovative initiatives that Garmont has undertaken in recent seasons and that Andrea Nalesso is called to continue, is the development of footwear with a strong sustainable footprint, a choice that is as important as it is articulated, in a sector where production has a significant environmental impact. From a commercial point of view, the new CEO will continue on the path of internationalization, opening new markets and expanding the existing distribution base, with an omnichannel focus.

Stake releases Zoo casino game: a fast, multiplayer Stake Original where players bet on the wild side

A new live-round Stake Original where every player bets on the same outcome – six animals, a 20-tile track, three results per round, and wins up to 1,000x in play.

Stake, the world’s largest online casino and sportsbook, has today launched its Zoo casino game, a new multiplayer Stake Original that brings every player into the same live round to bet on six animals across a 20-tile track. Available worldwide on Stake, Zoo is the latest title to join the growing Stake Originals collection.

Zoo takes the shared-round excitement that has made games like Crash a Stake Originals staple and pairs it with simpler, more visual decision-making. Each round, six animals – Lion, Cheetah, Elephant, Crocodile, Rhino, and Penguin – appear on a 20-tile circular track, with each animal showing up a different number of times to create clear volatility tiers and payout differences across the board. Players have ten seconds to back one or more animals before the track spins up and locks in three result tiles in the center of the screen.

Zoo launches with a 98% RTP, a top multiplier of 1,000x per round, and full auto bet controls that let players preset their wager amount, number of rounds, and chosen animals. Designed as a simpler, more visual evolution of popular casino games like Roulette and Sic Bo, Zoo strips back the complexity without compromising on depth. The rarer the animal, the bigger the reward – Lion and Cheetah each appear only once on the track, Elephant and Crocodile twice, Rhino four times, and Penguin ten, giving players a clear read on the risk and payout of every play. With three result tiles drawn each round, players win based on how many times their chosen animal lands across all three.

“Zoo is exactly the kind of game we want Stake Originals to be known for – fast, simple to pick up, and genuinely fun to play in an online setting filled with other players. There’s real tension in watching the three tiles land for the whole table at once, and we think players are going to find their favourite animals pretty quickly,” said Stake’s Chief Marketing Officer, Akhil Sarin.

Zoo joins a growing line-up of in-house multiplayer game creations on Stake Casino, with the goal of keeping every Stake Original easy to learn, quick to play, and a little bit different from anything else in the iGaming industry.
