UPDATE — Governor Murphy Visits Expanding New Jersey-Based Tech Company Lotto.Com
JERSEY CITY, N.J., Sept. 20, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy visited Lotto.com’s headquarters in Jersey City, NJ for a private tour of the company’s operations and to address Lotto.com’s employees. The tech company developed the first digital platform for ordering lottery tickets on any device, with no app download or deposit required. Lotto.com continues to add high tech jobs in New Jersey and provides an easy way for New Jersey residents to order lottery tickets from anywhere in the state at any time.
“Lotto.com is exactly the sort of company that is in the crosshairs of our economic development aspirations,” Governor Murphy said when addressing the Lotto.com staff. “You are exactly the kind of company that we are relentlessly focused on getting here, birthing here, and growing here.”
“It was an honor to have Governor Murphy visit Lotto.com’s headquarters in Jersey City,” said Thomas Metzger, CEO of Lotto.com Inc. “Governor Murphy helped make the dream of Lotto.com become a reality. Lotto.com opened its first office during the pandemic in June of 2020. Since then we have grown from 4 employees to almost 100 nationwide, the vast majority of which are based in the Garden State. Lotto.com is grateful for Governor Murphy’s leadership and support of the New Jersey business community, especially during those challenging times. We look forward to continuing to grow in New Jersey and beyond over the coming years.”
Lotto.com launched its online operations in New Jersey in June 2021. The company’s growth has not stopped here – the digital platform has already expanded into three other states this year – New York, Texas and Colorado – allowing players in these states an easy, safe and secure way to order tickets for their favorite lottery games.
The Governor’s visit also comes on the heels of Lotto.com’s launch of a national advertising campaign titled “Welcome to WINever™,” which can be seen on TV, out-of-home, social media and more in New Jersey, New York, Texas and Colorado.

Successful Premiere of Portside Game Assembly: the Indie Conference on the Water Returns in June 2026

On June 26 and 27, Gamecity Hamburg, as part of Hamburg Kreativ Gesellschaft, celebrated the successful premiere of Portside Game Assembly. A B2B conference for indie studios with 100 selected studio directors from 15 countries on a ship cruising through the port of Hamburg. The event provided a confidential setting for studio executives to exchange ideas and gain new perspectives. The list of attendees is carefully curated, allowing only management-level representatives from indie studios that have successfully published at least one game on board. In addition to the conference, three other Portside Game Assembly events facilitated interaction between industry members of the Hamburg games industry and international guests, as well as additional networking with conference participants, publishers, and game studios. 200 additional games industry peers met with the conference attendees in three other extraordinary Hamburg locations for networking and exchange. Following a successful premiere and receiving very positive feedback from attendees, the second Portside Game Assembly in Hamburg is scheduled for June 25 and 26, 2026!
“We saw a gap within the calendar of international games industry B2B events and decided to go for it. With the Portside Game Assembly, we are creating a space in which leaders of indie studios can exchange ideas confidentially and on an eye level. By curating the list of participants, we guarantee that participants get new impulses for their business and make relevant new contacts without distraction. We develop the content of the program in close exchange with the participating studios and always for the perspective of studio directors and founders. We are overjoyed with the feedback from the attendees on the premiere and are starting to plan the second Portside in June 2026”, explains Dennis Schoubye, Head of Gamecity Hamburg.
“With companies that have been successful for decades and a diverse and growing indie game scene, the games industry is an important part of Hamburg’s creative industry. With Portside Game Assembly, we have developed another key element that strengthens the importance of Hamburg as a games location by bringing important studio heads and industry contacts to Hamburg and thus promoting international exchange”, comments Egbert Rühl, Managing Director of Hamburg Kreativ Gesellschaft.
Quotes from Participating Studios
“There was a great atmosphere, and the curation was a good mix of profiles and range of companies. It was easy to get in touch with people at the different locations. I’d recommend Portside Game Assembly to network, meet other indies to connect, ask questions, and share knowledge”, Thomas Pfeiffer, CEO & Co-Founder Evil Empire.
„Portside is not your typical conference, It’s something special. No business cards, no distractions, just studio heads having real, honest conversations. Everyone in the room has been through the same challenges, and that shared experience creates a rare level of openness. Ideas, insights, and best practices were shared freely, and I left with a notebook full of actionable takeaways. Absolutely worth it”, Jeroen Janssen, Studio Head & Founder Happy Volcano.
„Portside Game Assembly provided a wonderful ‘Free Port’ for me as an Indie Dev Executive to meet with likeminded leaders from the industry.
Good, deep, conversations about what works – and what doesn’t”, Christian Nyhus Andreasen, Partner & COO Fair Games.
The program of Portside Game Assembly included a keynote on the Triple-i Initiative, short impulse talks and roundtables focusing on thought provoking and subsequent discussions. All of this on a conference ship cruising through the port of Hamburg and along the river Elbe.
After a keynote speech by Benjamin Laulan (COO & Co-Founder Evil Empire), the two conference tracks (impulse talks & roundtables) provided numerous opportunities for input, exchange and insights from speakers like Philomena Schwab (Co-Founder Stray Fawn Studio), Søren Lundgaard (CEO Ghost Ship Games), Mauricio García (Studio Director The Game Kitchen), Kevin Zuhn (Creative Director & Co-Founder Young Horses), René Habermann (Director Bippinbits) and many more.
