Under his leadership, the Supervisory Board has accompanied key developments such as ZEAL’s return to Germany and the strategic expansion of our business. On behalf of ZEAL, I would like to sincerely thank Peter Steiner for his valuable work and wish him all the best for the future.”

EUROMAT Re-elects Jason Frost as President
On May 22, 2025, the European Gaming and Amusement Federation (EUROMAT) held its Annual General Meeting (AGM) in Brussels, Belgium, where members unanimously re-elected Jason Frost as President and Uwe Christiansen as First Vice-President. Karoly Buzás from the Romanian Slot Operators’ Association (ROMSLOT) has been elected as Treasurer of the association.
“I am very proud that our members have once again placed their trust in me, our Vice-President, and our new Treasurer for another term. EUROMAT is thriving with an expanding membership and a clear sense of mission: to make the business environment better for our industry” Jason Frost said.
“One important issue that we need to tackle is the rapid growth of the illegal market. There is not enough focus from regulators on this problem. Illegal gambling channels are proliferating at an alarming rate which makes a mockery of licensing regimes and puts players at risk. We will be pressing the case for tangible initiatives from authorities to get on top of this problem,” Jason Frost added.
The AGM also ratified Damien McCoy of the Irish Amusement Trades Association (IATA) and Bernhard Teuchman of the Spanish association Club de Convergentes as Executive Board Members. In addition, it welcomed the Association of Organizers of Gambling Games and Activities in Bulgaria (AOGGAB) as a new Association Member, along with Aristocrat and Sigma as new Corporate Members.
