The Sustainable Gambling Zone (SGZ) located on stand Q30 at iGB L!VE will reflect the very latest thinking on player protection delivered by a mix of not for profit and private sector companies including Yaspa, Experian, Department of Trust, Gordon Moody and BetBlocker  – the 2025 Clarion Gaming charity partner.

Visitors to the Zone will have the opportunity to connect directly with specialists in responsible gambling, mental health, and consumer protection, learn about the latest technological advances and initiatives designed to enhance player safety and well-being, attend thought-provoking sessions and workshops focused on best practice and foster collaborations aimed at driving positive change across the industry.

Explaining the evolution of Clarion Gaming’s commitment to player protection Managing Director Stuart Hunter said: “I’m extremely proud that we became the first b2b gambling event to champion player protection when we launched the Consumer Protection Zone at ICE 2018.

“The journey of the Sustainable Gambling Zone has been nothing short of remarkable. What began as a ground-breaking initiative has evolved into a powerful symbol of the industry’s collective commitment to sustainability. As the home of the iGaming community moves to London, the heart of the iGaming industry, the SGZ will once again underscore our belief that player experience and responsible practices are fundamental to long-term success.”

Naomi Barton Portfolio Director iGB events added: “World class exhibitions provide a powerful platform for engagement. The opportunity to bring together the international industry with its regulators in a professional environment is a key opportunity to ensure that gaming regulation delivers robust player protection undertakings within a framework which allows the industry to grow.

“We remain utterly committed to supporting safer gambling and the promotion of regulated markets. The SGZ provides a focus for our attendees to understand, implement, and champion the responsible principles that underpin a healthy and thriving iGaming sector. We invite all 15,000+ iGaming professionals attending iGBLive 2025 to visit the SGZ and be part of what promise to be vital conversations.”

Pablo Puertas, Marketing Director of Kaizen Gaming said: “The past year has been a defining one for Betano. We didn’t just refresh our visual identity; we reinforced Betano as a modern, premium and trusted brand, radiating confidence, playfulness, and artistic flair. Through bold 360° campaigns and landmark sponsorships we connected with millions of people in meaningful, localized ways.

But this is more than branding. It reflects our broader commitment to delivering the best, most innovative, and most responsible gaming experiences possible. Winning ‘Best Native App’ once again, as well as ‘Innovation in Sports Betting’ shows that we are pretty successful at it. We are now at a stage where we can confidently say that Betano is a truly premium global player, able to compete for leadership in any given market. A big thank you to the award organizers, but more importantly to the ‘Kaizeners’, who are the driving force behind our success”.

Play’n GO invites players to return to the charming world of Big Win Cat Pawsperity, where tradition meets treasure in this whimsically opulent 3×3 slot.

The beloved Big Win Cat is back – but don’t expect the same familiar feline. Set within a lavish shop filled with talismans and charm-drenched décor, Big Win Cat Pawsperity brings a heightened layer of visual storytelling and layered rewards. Players of the original Big Win Cat, fans of classic 3×3 slot structures, and enthusiasts of East Asian themes will find a playful yet potent take on the idea of luck.

Whether it’s the collectible Coins that feed into the Cat’s growing grandeur, the mystery of the Instant Bonus, or the elusive Wheel of Pawsperity, there’s always something to keep a keen eye on. With every detail designed to engage and reward, this is no ordinary feline feature.

Each Coin collected doesn’t just build anticipation – it builds the Cat, both literally and visually. As the pile of fortune grows above the reels, so too does the sense of potential. The Instant Bonus might strike with a single Coin, offering up to 5000x your bet. The Re-spin of Luck adds another strategic layer, nudging stacked symbols into powerful alignments. And the ultimate prize? A spin on the Wheel of Pawsperity – where multipliers and the majestic Grand Bonus await.

It’s a clever blend of playful anticipation and tangible payout opportunities that make every feature part of the narrative of growing wealth and watchful luck.

Building on the popularity of Big Win Cat, this sequel retains its familiar 3×3 charm while enriching the player experience with feature depth. Fans of Fortune Rewind or Cat Wilde titles will appreciate the elegant nod to previous themes – especially the character-driven charm that defines Play’n GO’s strongest slots. The growing Wild Cat acts both as a guide and guardian to prosperity, a mascot many will delight in rediscovering.

Magnus Wallentin, Games Ambassador at Play’n GO said: “The return of Big Win Cat brings more than nostalgia – it introduces visual buildup mechanics and layered features that keep players engaged. It’s classic Play’n GO innovation wrapped in red silk and gold.”

With its striking visuals, layered gameplay, and engaging mascot, Big Win Cat Pawsperity pounces confidently into our premium 3×3 portfolio.
