Zitro held its Zitro Experience event on June 12th at the exclusive Villa Cosentino in Lima, Peru. The event was a unique opportunity to network in a relaxed atmosphere, while customers enjoyed a spectacular product presentation, followed by a fantastic musical performance.

“Our Zitro Experience event was the perfect opportunity to connect with our clients in Peru,” said Alejandra Burato, Zitro’s Regional Director for Latin America. “At Zitro, we have a strong commitment to the Peruvian market, and this event was a true celebration of our continued success in the country. We’ve been present in Peru for several years now, and our dedication is reflected in our constant investment of resources, the expansion of our team, and our gradual growth across gaming establishments in the country.”

At this edition of Zitro Experience Peru, the company presented a wide range of new products and games specifically designed for the region’s audience. Zitro offers Peruvian operators’ products with greater added value, characterized not only by the interconnected version of their machines in the same room (LAP) but also by the possibility of interconnecting machines in multiple locations, under a Wide Area Progressive (WAP) network. This product line allows operators to link Zitro’s premium WAP games, on the Altius Glare cabinet, across all their locations.

Zitro also presented games with proven performance in various markets worldwide in recent months. These include ‘Fu Frog’, ‘Fu Pots’, and ‘Billy the Pig’. Furthermore, the company unveiled its latest releases: ‘Energy Link’, ‘Drum Dynasty’, ‘Night Link’, ‘Hit Selection’, and ‘Epic Empires’.

In addition to these titles, Zitro also introduced the new ‘Mega Lounge’ concept. This designated area within the casino features a selection of Zitro games and machines interconnected with each other. All machines playing in the lounge simultaneously will contribute to a MEGA jackpot. When a player wins the MEGA, all machines will celebrate together, providing players with a unique communal gaming experience. ‘Mega Lounge’ allows operators to combine different Zitro games and cabinets under the same concept to offer an enhanced and diverse gaming experience, making it unique in the industry.

Sebastian Salat, Zitro’s President International, added: “Our Zitro Experience event has been a wonderful opportunity to meet, once again, with customers and friends and showcase the products we have developed for the market. This event will undoubtedly solidify our position as the leading casino supplier in Peru and further strengthen our achievements in the region. At Zitro, we are convinced of the enormous potential offered by this market, and therefore, our project focuses on continuing to grow in the country and across LatAm.”

BetMGM announced today that Great Place To Work® and Fortune magazine have recognized the operator as one this year’s Best Workplaces in New York. The leading sports betting and iGaming operator landed at No.16 and secured the spot on the prestigious list by surpassing rigorous benchmarks, establishing itself as one of the best workplaces among companies headquartered in the New York region. About 92% employees surveyed said that BetMGM is a great place to work, 35 percentage points higher than the average U.S. company.

“Landing on this prestigious list is a reflection of BetMGM’s ongoing commitment to fostering a great work environment,” said Adam Greenblatt, CEO, BetMGM. “I am honored to lead an organization filled with dedicated and talented employees who have created a place where people feel welcomed and supported.”

To determine the Fortune Best Workplaces in New York List, Great Place To Work® collected nearly 140,000 confidential survey responses from employees at eligible companies.

In 2024, BetMGM also was shortlisted by SBC North America and EGR North America for “Employer of the Year” honors.
