Hippodrome Casino to host international thought-leaders at ICE Symposium
The iconic Hippodrome Casino, located in the heart of London’s West End, will host the 2023 ICE Symposium taking place September 12. The Symposium, an initiative which was launched by Clarion Gaming last year, will feature over 100 invited industry thought leaders from 17 countries covering both the land-based and digital gaming sectors.
Heralding the event, Andy Ventris, Event Director responsible for ICE London, said: “We wanted to build on the success of last year’s Symposium which was hosted by Les Ambassadeurs Casino situated in Mayfair, London. Bringing industry thought leaders together in one place provides an ideal opportunity to listen to their views about the sector, learn from their insight and feed the intelligence back into the development teams responsible for ICE.”
He continued: “It also provides us with an opportunity to share the exciting plans that we have to celebrate ICE 2024 which will be the last edition of the show to be held at ExCeL London and of course to discuss the next chapter in the history of ICE with the relocation to Barcelona in 2025. I am sure that there will be many questions about what to expect from the relocation and the senior team led by Clarion Gaming MD Stuart Hunter who oversaw the six-month bid and evaluation process will be present to go into more detail about all of the opportunities presented by the move.”
“Attendees to the 2023 Symposium will also receive a keynote speech entitled ‘Gambling The Investment Landscape’ from Simon French, Managing Director Head of Growth Capital Solutions and Travel & Leisure at Panmure Gordon. Simon spent five years at Whitbread PLC before moving into equity research starting with the IPOs of 888 and 32Red, subsequently co-founding a boutique advisory business working with public and private companies in the gambling sector.
“We’ve had a fantastic response from our invited guests and we are immensely grateful to Simon Thomas, Executive Chairman, The Hippodrome Casino, for kindly hosting the Symposium.”

Reflex Gaming launches Sidewinder Xtra Power via Yggdrasil Masters
Sequel adds an Xtra Power bar to the Sidewinder Shuffle feature, with multipliers and Wild upgrades built into the trail mechanic.
Reflex Gaming has launched Sidewinder Xtra Power, a sequel to its Sidewinder title, with distribution through the Yggdrasil Masters Program.
The game uses a 5×3, 20-payline fruit slot format and brings back the Sidewinder Shuffle mechanic. Reflex said the Sidewinder Feature is triggered when five orbs light up above the reels, turning losing spins into winners as the reels shuffle into position.
Reflex said each winning shuffle increases a multiplier trail, with trail targets unlocking Wilds, Super Wilds, Mega Wilds and symbol upgrades. Mystery symbols can also land in the base game, with shutters opening simultaneously across the reels to reveal the same symbol.
The main addition is the Xtra Power Sidewinder feature. Reflex said four orbs in the base game boost a power bar, and once the bar is full, the next triggered shuffle feature opens Xtra Power. During Xtra Power events, each triggering orb reveals a multiplier boost.
Mat Ingram, CPO at Reflex Gaming, said: “With Xtra Power, we wanted to give the Sidewinder experience an extra dimension, and the power bar does exactly that.
“Players now have two things to chase simultaneously, and when the Xtra Power feature fires with the multiplier already boosted from the start, it delivers the kind of moment that is truly the cherry on top.”

Artificial intelligence
QCI Launches QCI Resorts, the Unified Intelligence Platform for Resorts
Quick Custom Intelligence (QCI), a leading provider of gaming and hospitality technology, announced the launch of QCI Resorts, a unified intelligence platform designed specifically for modern resort operations.
For decades, the resort industry has pursued a vision of operational unification through integrations, data warehouses, and interconnected software systems. While these approaches connected information across departments, they also created increasing complexity, duplicated data, delayed decision-making, and limited the ability of organizations to fully leverage artificial intelligence.
Built on the QCI AGI Platform, QCI Resorts delivers a single operational environment where hospitality, food and beverage, point-of-sale, marketing, loyalty, guest engagement, operations, and enterprise intelligence operate from one unified intelligence layer. Rather than moving information between disconnected applications, QCI Resorts enables resort operations to function within a shared real-time platform designed for intelligence-driven decision making.
The launch marks a significant milestone in QCI’s vision for the future of resort technology—one where unified operational intelligence replaces fragmented software stacks and where agentic systems can operate with a complete understanding of the enterprise.
“After more than two decades building data warehouses and integration platforms, generative AI enabled for another approach. Instead of connecting more systems together, we can now deliver most resort operations through a single real-time software stack. Gaming remains integrated where regulations require it, but hospitality, marketing, loyalty, food and beverage, operations, and intelligence can operate from a unified platform. That foundation is what makes true agentic resort operations possible,” said Andrew Cardno, Co-Founder and CTO of QCI.
Unlike traditional resort technology architectures that rely on multiple vendors, extensive integrations, and centralized data warehouses, QCI Resorts operates from a shared data model, shared workflow architecture, and shared intelligence layer. This approach enables real-time operational intelligence across the enterprise while providing the foundation required for AI agents to understand, coordinate, and execute actions across resort operations.
“QCI Resorts is not another integration platform. For decades, the industry has pursued the vision of a unified resort platform. The goal was right, but the technology wasn’t ready. Today, advances in AI and agentic systems make it possible to deliver what operators have always wanted: a single real-time operational system where hospitality, marketing, loyalty, food and beverage, operations, and intelligence work together as one, with gaming integrated where regulations require. QCI Resorts is that system,” said Ralph Thomas, Co-Founder and CEO of QCI.
As artificial intelligence continues to reshape the hospitality industry, QCI believes the next generation of resort technology will not be defined by how many systems can be integrated together, but by how effectively intelligence can operate across the entire enterprise.
“Agentic AI achieves its greatest potential when it operates within a complete understanding of the business. The future belongs to systems that can understand the entire resort, not just individual departments. That is the vision behind QCI Resorts,” added Cardno.
QCI Resorts is being introduced as the industry’s first unified intelligence platform purpose-built for gaming and hospitality operations, enabling operators to move beyond fragmented architecture toward a real-time operational intelligence model designed for the era of agentic AI.
