ITALIAN ONLINE CASINO ORDER FOR NETENT
6 November 2009
Italy's biggest remote gaming provider signs
up
Swedish online gambling software provider Net
Entertainment reports that it has signed up Microgame -
arguably the largest remote gaming provider in Italy -
for an online casino on the popular CasinoModule
platform.
The agreement gives NetEnt a useful
foothold in the Italian market for the first time.
Microgame was founded in 1996 and boasts more than
1.3 million game accounts, with a market share of 25
percent in online poker and 28 percent in online
sportsbetting.
In the reporting year 2008 the
group generated gross gaming revenues of over Euro 85
million. The company operates under the licensing and
authority of Italy's Autonomous Administration of State
Monopolies (AAMS).
“Gambling is huge in Italy
and is expected to generate a gross gaming yield
exceeding Euro 17 billion in 2009, making it the
country’s third largest industry," said Net
Entertainment chief executive Johan Öhman. "In light of
this, it is obviously extra encouraging that one of the
dominant incumbents selects Net Entertainment as their
strategic casino partner.”
