EGT is proud to announce that it is an official partner of the “Gaming Industry Gala Dinner”, organized by the Association of Organizers of Gambling Games and Activities in Bulgaria (AOGGAB) with the support of EUROMAT. The event will be held on November 25 and for the third consecutive year will bring together leading companies and figures from Bulgaria and abroad.

The motto of the gala dinner will be “Together in Europe” and will focus on European integration, professional collaboration, and a shared vision for a sustainable future of the industry.

Traditionally, the “Golden Spade’s” Awards will also be presented during the event. The prizes honor the greatest innovations and the most significant achievements in the sector over the past 12 months. EGT is among the finalists in the competition and will compete for the accolade in the “Most Successful Bulgarian Company Abroad of the Year” and “Slot Machine of the Year” categories.

EGT received the nomination for “Most Successful Bulgarian Company Abroad of the Year” as it is the biggest gaming equipment manufacturer in Bulgaria with 28 international offices on 5 continents. In 2025, it made a large number of installations and substantially increased its footprint in a number of markets. Currently, EGT’s products are present in over 100 jurisdictions around the world.

The company is also a contender for the “Slot Machine of the Year” award. It was shortlisted because of its latest series of slot cabinets Supreme, including 4 models – S 32-32 UP, S 32-32 ST, S 55 S ST, and S 55 V ST. They immediately received high praise from both operators and players for the perfect combination of attractive design, exceptional convenience provided by their numerous ergonomic features, and compatibility with some of the most popular and beloved games from EGT’s portfolio. Supreme slot cabinets have already been installed in a number of gaming venues globally, where they continue to demonstrate excellent results and remain among customers’ favorites.

Frogo has won the “Anti-Fraud Innovation of the Year” award at the SiGMA Central Europe B2B Awards 2025. The award recognizes companies that are redefining how businesses approach risk, security and operational transparency.

Unlike traditional systems focused on blocking individual cases of fraud, Frogo’s approach is built around strategic prevention and real-time decision support. The platform helps businesses to understand their data, predict potential risks and act before losses occur. It combines artificial intelligence, behavioral analytics, graph-based forensics and – most importantly – deep industry expertise in a single environment that enables teams to identify fraud patterns and adapt instantly to changing traffic or threat dynamics.

“We’ve always seen fraud prevention as more than a reactive process,” said Volodymyr Todurov, CEO at Frogo. “Our goal is to help companies think strategically about risk, to build systems that recognize patterns, not just red flags. That’s what makes prevention sustainable.”

The SiGMA jury highlighted Frogo’s ability to balance automation with flexibility, allowing companies across sectors such as iGaming, fintech and e-commerce to maintain both security and user trust. Businesses using Frogo can automate complex fraud checks, reduce operational noise and focus on making informed, timely decisions rather than manual investigations.
