ICE 2024: Win Systems Bets on Custom Meetings with Operators

Win Systems, a leading technology provider for the gaming and entertainment industry, will participate in ICE from February 6 to 8, introducing a new format: in 2024, the company is betting on an exclusive VIP Lounge, where it expects to have more relaxed and productive conversations in its meetings with clients, colleagues and visitors.
The main objective of this new strategy is to drive the company’s growth in Europe and Africa in 2024 and the years to come. To achieve this, the company is committed to closer interaction with the main operators in the sector.
The VIP Lounge, located on the first floor of the North Hall, will serve as a meeting point for pre-scheduled talks. In fact, Win Systems management and sales team already have several meetings arranged to listen first-hand to operators’ needs and show how the powerful Gaming and Systems solutions (several of which will be exhibited in the Lounge) can help them.
All operators interested in learning about Win Systems‘ latest innovations and all its solutions, can send an email to [email protected], or directly contact its managers for Gaming in Europe (Gergana Chelebieva), for the powerful casino management system WIGOS (Gabriela Villalobos and Natalia Kostova), as well as all the solutions fully adapted for operators on the African markets (Juan McEwan).
Eric Benchimol, CEO de Win Systems, said: “We are delighted to participate once again in ICE, a crucial trade-show for two strategic regions for Win Systems´s growth, such as Europe and Africa. As there are multiple markets with specific needs, we have chosen to have working sessions with each operator, underlining once again our strong commitment to proximity and personalized attention to provide the best solutions for each casino.”

BHA Initiates Campaign Against Tax Hike

The British Horseracing Authority (BHA) has urged the sport to collectively lobby the Government to back British racing and axe the Treasury’s proposal to hike tax on horserace betting by bringing existing online betting duties into one single rate.
The call comes ahead of the launch of “Axe the Racing Tax”, a BHA-led public campaign against the proposal which will be rolled out over the summer.
A tax hike for bookmakers in the Autumn Budget would be the third leg of a triple whammy of financial threats caused by Government policies which jeopardise the future of the sport in Britain.
Economic analysis commissioned by the BHA shows that aligning the current 15% tax rate paid by bookmakers on racing with that of online games of chance – currently taxed at 21% – by harmonising all remote gambling duties, could hit racing’s finances to the tune of £66m in lost income via the Levy, media rights and sponsorship. This is because operators are likely to seek to mitigate significant tax rises through cutting bonuses, reducing advertising and marketing budgets and increasing prices.
Should the Treasury seek to raise the proposed single duty rate further to help balance the books, the impact on racing’s finances would be devastating, with a projected £97m loss at a tax rate of 25%, a £126m loss at 30% and a £160m loss at 40%.
Brant Dunshea, Acting Chief Executive of the British Horseracing Authority, said: “It is vital that everyone working in racing, the media and bettors fully support and promote this campaign.
“The Government’s consultation on harmonising online betting duties, if followed through, poses one of the gravest risks to racing the sport has ever seen.
“It will punch a huge hole in racing’s finances, risk thousands of jobs across Britain and threaten the future of the country’s second most-popular sport and a cherished national institution.
“From now until the Budget we will be hammering home a very simple message to MPs, Peers and the Government on behalf of millions of racing fans. It’s time for the Government to back British racing and axe the racing tax.”
