Inspired Gaaming Group is a leading gaming machine operator in the UK for the gaming and leisure markets, and also provides its unique Open SBG software systems, terminals and Virtual Sports products in 19 other countries. It is one of the three leading VLT suppliers to Italian casinos and betting shops and its Virtual Sports products are the leading online and land-based games in their category worldwide. The Group operates approximately 50,000 machines on a participation basis, of which in excess of 35,000 are on the Inspired Open SBG platform.

Inspired’s focus in Italy remains the new VLT (Comma 6b) market and the company will exhibit at next week’s Enada Rimini show on Booth 172, Hall C7, the wide range of VLT cabinets and games available from its joint venture with Merkur Gaming, called Merkur Inspired. All its VLTs are powered by Inspired’s Open VLT platform, which allows integration with any cabinet. As well as cabinets and games from Inspired and Merkur Gaming, Booth 172 will show lots of international and Italian-made cabinets operating on Inspired’s Open VLT platform.

In line with the evolution of online gaming regulation in Italy, Inspired will be unveiling its best online slots games and award-winning online Virtual Sports Betting – both of which are famous for their high quality graphics. Included in the online slots games soon to be available in Italy is Treasure Island; Inspired’s most popular Comma 6b game. Inspired will also be exhibiting one of the most trusted online platforms with its sister company, OpenBet, provider of software for the online gaming and betting industry. OpenBet will be showcasing the latest compelling games from its ever expanding dynamic portfolio.

Virtual Sports races and matches, including football, cycling and tennis, will be regularly running on the stand and will even be shown in 3D. Making its Italian debut will be Inspired’s new Self-Service Betting Terminal, which allows in-running betting on a terminal for live and virtual sporting events.

For casino operators, Inspired will be showcasing its next-generation Electronic Roulette product “Multi-Win Roulette 4.0” on the sleek new “Sabre” slant top cabinet. With its dynamic new look and feel, “Real Touch” screen technology, widescreen HD graphics and new “Player Portal”, it is the first electronic casino table game to recreate the full sensory experience of playing at a live table, while providing the comfort of sitting at a private terminal. Handheld bingo and casino tablets will also be on display, featuring a range of casino table games, fast bingo games and slots, all on one handheld tablet.

Luke Alvarez, CEO of Inspired, says: “We have recognised for a while that Italy is Europe’s most exciting growth market for gaming and the success it is now experiencing is being closely watched by the whole industry. With that in mind, we have been working hard over the last 18 months to secure our market position and build a reputation not only as the VLT supplier of choice, but as the most exciting international gaming company in Italy across VLT, casino, eGaming and Sports Betting. Our significant presence at Enada Rimini clearly demonstrates how much we value the Italian market and is an important opportunity for us to show our new product portfolio to the industry’s leading players.” (E-03.11.11)
