The General Workers’ Union – Malta (GWU) has secured several jobs and successfully negotiated an improved severance offer for employees of gaming company NetEnt who were declared redundant following the company’s acquisition by Swedish gaming giant Evolution Gaming Group.

Following consultations with the GWU, Evolution Gaming Group has now accepted to offer alternative employment to at least 40 employees within the coming weeks. Another 60 employees are expected to be absorbed by gaming and financial services operators in Malta, as a testament to the long term sustainability of the sector and the GWU’s commitment to the creation of quality employment.

The GWU, representing the majority of NetEnt employees in Malta, had earlier filed an application before Malta’s Superior Courts, requesting an injunction to prevent the company from implementing any form of redundancy or from terminating any employment. The First Hall, Civil Court had provisionally accepted the union’s injunction.

Thanks to the new agreement reached, the GWU has secured an improvement to the severance offer previously negotiated with an employee representative, and each affected employee will receive an additional payment of EUR 750.  Other benefits include better safeguards for employees currently on maternity leave and the availability of the company’s health benefit package to affected employees.

GWU members who are affected by these redundancies, occasioned by restructuring in the gaming sector, overwhelmingly approved the revised severance offer.

Negotiations for the GWU were conducted by Josef Bugeja (Secretary General), Kevin Camilleri (Deputy Secretary General), Riccarda Darmanin (Section Secretary), with the legal support of Aron Mifsud Bonnici.

GWU Secretary General Josef Bugeja stated that “we negotiated intensely and with determination. We saved jobs to the extent that this was possible. We ensured that all those who are being let go are suitably compensated.” He thanked Evolution CEO Martin Carlsund, and company legal advisor Paul Gonzi for their collaboration in reaching a satisfactory agreement.

The GWU today withdrew the court injunction, with the legal and industrial dispute being thus resolved.

New hero video brings together four football icons as Stake aims to place fans at the centre of the global football conversation

Stake Unveils Ambassador-Led Football Campaign

Stake has unveiled a new international football campaign featuring brand ambassadors Iker Casillas, Sergio Agüero, Eden Hazard and Patrice Evra, bringing together four of the game’s most recognisable figures in a hero video designed to capture the anticipation, excitement and emotion surrounding one of football’s biggest global tournaments.

The campaign, titled “It’s All At Stake”, forms part of Stake’s wider strategy to engage football fans across key international markets during a period expected to dominate sporting and cultural conversations around the world. The full campaign film is now available to watch on YouTube.

Four Football Icons, One Global Campaign

Created in partnership with specialist production teams, the campaign follows the four former internationals as they navigate the excitement, pressure and unpredictability that make major football tournaments such a unique global spectacle.

Combining humour, personality and football nostalgia, the creative reflects Stake’s continued investment in culturally relevant content that resonates with sports fans beyond the action on the pitch.

The campaign marks the first time Casillas, Agüero, Hazard and Evra have appeared together in a Stake production. Collectively, the quartet represent some of football’s most memorable moments of the modern era, having won major domestic, European and international honours throughout their careers.

Multi-Channel Distribution Strategy

The hero film is being distributed across Stake’s digital channels, including YouTube, Instagram and X, supported by ambassador amplification and additional promotional activity across international markets.

Alongside the main campaign film, Stake has released supporting social content across its channels, including an Instagram Reel showcasing key moments from the campaign.

The campaign has also been amplified through Stake’s official X account, where football fans can engage with and share campaign content.

The campaign has been designed to drive engagement among football audiences while reinforcing Stake’s position as one of the most visible brands operating within the sports and entertainment space.
