Virtual visit to mark United Nations’ International Day of Education
Zoom class comes at an unprecedented time for educational norms

In celebration of the third annual United Nations International Day of Education, Veloce Racing Extreme E driver Jamie Chadwick went ‘back to school’ today (25 January) to talk to students at Harris Academy Battersea. Chadwick engaged with the students at length around her career and the new challenge she faces in the pioneering all-electric off-road series.

As a consequence of COVID-19, 1.5 billion young people have been impacted by school closures across 184 countries globally. In the UK, this has led to the vast majority of students currently being home-schooled. Now, more than ever, educational establishments are looking for exciting and inspirational activities to ensure children and teenagers remain focussed and engaged in their lessons.

With support from Girls on Track UK – a Motorsport UK initiative supporting the participation of women in motorsport – 22-year-old Williams F1 Development driver Chadwick was able to engage with over 300 Harris Academy Battersea students for a truly unique educational experience via video call.

As the inaugural W Series Champion and one of nine female drivers in Extreme E, Jamie was perfectly-placed to discuss topical subjects such as careers, gender equality, sustainability and climate change with students, prompting a great deal of enthusiastic discussion.

Jamie Chadwick, Driver, Veloce Racing, said:

“It was fun being able to talk to students who were so inquisitive about what I do and the series I race in. I really enjoyed answering their questions and I have to say a big ‘thank you’ to Girls on Track for helping to make this possible!

“I think it’s so important to inspire the next generation regarding some of the biggest subjects in today’s world like education, gender equality and climate change, especially during such difficult times for all of us. I hope it gets them all thinking about these issues and ways in which we can make a difference.”

Mr Carr, Vice Principal, Harris Academy Battersea, added:

“The students had a fantastic time hearing about Jamie’s experience, her passion for her sport and career and her insight into her exciting new challenge with Veloce Racing and Extreme E. She is clearly a rising star in the sport and a great role model for young people, and she was very knowledgeable and really grabbed their attention from the word ‘go’.

“I think I speak for everyone when I say we thoroughly enjoyed Jamie’s virtual visit today and would love to welcome her back when she is able to visit the school in person!”

Sue Sanders, Director of Learning and Development, Motorsport UK commented:

“Girls on Track UK is delighted to have been instrumental in Jamie’s virtual visit today at the Harris Academy. With an already impressive list of achievements to her name, as well as her role as a Girls on Track UK ambassador, Jamie is undoubtedly a brilliant and motivational role model for all young people.

“Jamie’s imminent debut racing for Veloce in Extreme E certainly made for enthusiastic and topical conversation with the pupils, particularly around equality and sustainability within motorsport, which was really inspiring to see.

“A huge thank you to Harris Academy, to Jamie and to Veloce for making this happen today – and we really look forward to a Girls on Track UK event in-person at the school just as soon as restrictions are lifted.”

Inside GEO: Slovenia As the Next Emerging Goldmine

Slovenia is definitely one of the most promising GEOs for the iGaming niche.

That is why the N1 Partners team has collected insights that will help to work more accurately with the audience, increase ROI and build effective advertising campaigns for the GEO.

Let’s look at the big picture to understand the potential of the region better. Slovenia is a small country in Central Europe with a population of about 2.1 million people and its capital in Ljubljana. The official language is Slovenian, the currency is euro, and the time zone is CET (UTC+1).

With the background of a high living standard and a stable economy, the market creates favorable conditions for online gambling: the iGaming sector is already showing steady growth, and its volume was estimated at about $497 million by 2025.

Reasons to test Slovenia

Slovenia is a promising region, but it often turns out to be underestimated in the iGaming niche.

Top 3 reasons to drive traffic to Slovenia right now:

Low competition.
Slovenia is the country with a low share of online gambling in the market. For partners, this is a signal: with proper localisation and strategy, you can enter a less competitive environment and make a long-term profit.
Solvent players.
The GDP per capita in Slovenia is about $35.3 thousand, which confirms the high level of audience solvency and the potential for stable LTV.
High potential.
Slovenia is not an overheated online market: in European comparison, the share of online gambling in the overall revenue structure remains relatively low. This means that the market has not yet fully realised its digital potential and there’s a room for growth.

Players’ behaviour

Slovenian users are more likely to choose online platforms due to their convenience, wide choice of games and accessibility from mobile devices.

In this region, smartphones account for the majority of iGaming traffic — 86.45%, which requires the adaptation of all funnels to mobile devices.

Gender and age

Men — 63%, average age 31-35 years
Women — 37%, average age 26-30 years

According to N1 Partners, the iGaming market remains predominantly male, which is confirmed by external research: the main audience is men aged 25-44. At the same time, the proportion of women is gradually increasing, expanding the segment’s potential.

Top 10 slots Among N1 Partners Players in Slovenia

N1 Partners team notes that players prefer slots with recognizable series, bonus features and adventure themes — this directly affects retention and LTV.

Legacy of Dead
Book of Dead
Heist Stakes
Book of the Fallen
Gates of Olympus Super Scatter
Lucky Lady’s Charm Deluxe
Magic Apple 2
Rich Wilde and the Tome of Madness
Gonzo’s Quest II: Return to El Dorado
More Magic Apple

Conclusion

Slovenia is a GEO with strong and sustainable potential and a high share of mobile traffic, as well as a growing iGaming market, ideal for those working with gambling traffic.

N1 Partners analytics confirms that with the right localisation strategy and taking into account the characteristics of the audience, this market is able to bring stable profits and long-term growth within the framework of iGaming partner programs.

New variant pairs Hold & Win gameplay with two daily progressive jackpots designed to drop before a capped maximum value.

3 Oaks Gaming has released Must Drop JACKPOT 4 Pots of Egypt, extending its Must Drop JACKPOT series by adding the time-limited jackpot mechanic to its 4 Pots of Egypt slot.

The 5×3, 20-line title uses a Hold & Win format and a four-pots bonus structure, with a progressive jackpot that the supplier says is guaranteed to drop before reaching a defined maximum value. 3 Oaks Gaming said two progressive jackpots are available daily.

According to the company, the Must Drop JACKPOT prize is set at network level within the game, meaning operators can deploy the promotional feature without additional administrative setup.

The game is built on the original 4 Pots of Egypt, with three smaller pots—Boost, Collect and Multi—and a fourth pot that can add Mini to Major jackpot values on up to three random symbols during the Bonus Game.

Victoria Vashukevich, Acting CCO 3 Oaks Gaming, said: “Must Drop JACKPOT 4 Pots of Egypt builds on the strength of proven Hold & Win gameplay with the added excitement of our Must Drop JACKPOT feature.

“The game’s layered bonus features, engaging Egyptian theme and progressive jackpot functionality make it a valuable addition to our portfolio and an attractive proposition for operators seeking high-performing content.”
