Caesars urges casino industry to dictate responsible gambling agenda

Published

on

Jan Jones Blackhurst, a former two-term Las Vegas mayor and now executive vice president for public policy and corporate responsibility at Caesars Entertainment, urged the delegates of the World Gaming Executive Summit, being held at the W Hotel in Barcelona, to make use of the opportunity to dictate the responsible gambling agenda in the gambling industry.

See the outlined Caesars’ responsible gaming credentials before urging the industry to “tell its own story.”

Caesars partnered to create the first national hotlines in the US and was the first to offer national exclusion programmes with an enforced door policy, explained Jones Blackhurst.

 “At Caesars, we employ 900 responsible gaming ambassadors specifically trained to approach customers that appear to be experiencing problems,” she said.

This is coupled with the fact, said Jones Blackhurst, that 98 per cent of people who gamble choose to do so responsibly.

“The question is: ‘What story do you want to tell?’ and do you want to tell it or should you let legislators do it for you?”

“When telling this story, authenticity is the key. You can’t just say you’re doing it,” added Jones Blackhurst.

“By not telling our own good-news stories, we are missing the opportunity to be treated with the respect I think we deserve as an industry.”

Jones Blackhurst also shared statistical data that highlighted the improved commercial performance of companies who are actively working towards gender and ethnic equality. “It’s not just a ‘nice to have’ but that something that will boost all aspects of the organisation,” she said.

It makes perfect sense, Jones Blackhurst continued. “Eighty per cent of our slots players in Caesars in the US are women but the games are still being designed by men, mostly.” “Perhaps we’re missing a trick.”

Aleksandar Milovanović, founder and largest shareholder of Meridianbet, has completed a $500,000 cash-to-equity conversion under the Post-Closing Cash Consideration Conversion Agreement, as specified in the Eighth Amendment to the Amended and Restated Sale and Purchase Agreement with the parent company, Golden Matrix Group (GMGI).

The Eight Amendment was signed on August 29, 2025 and entered into force on September 9, 2025. The underlying SPA was signed June 27, 2023, and the acquisition closed on April 9, 2024 (effective April 1, 2024).

The conversion was executed in five scheduled tranches from September 9 to September 26, 2025.

With the final tranche today, the full $500,000 conversion is complete as agreed. These issuances were made as restricted shares pursuant to the SPA terms and do not affect the overall economics of the post-closing consideration.

The completion of the scheduled tranches converts cash obligations into equity as outlined in the agreement, without changing the overall post-closing economic terms. This process manages cash flow timing and maintains consistency with the agreed-upon shareholder structure.

Company united under the SkillOnNet umbrella in show of “unity, clarity and strength”

Global entertainment brand SkillOnNet is celebrating 20 years of innovation, growth and success with the launch of a rebranded website and logo and the unveiling of a bold new company identity.

A new corporate structure will bring together all areas of the business – SkillonNetOPS, SkillonNetMarketing, SkillonNetR&D, SkillonNetCORP, and SkillonNetGames – into one collaborative, unified organization under the SkillonNet umbrella, designed to drive sustainable growth across the company’s roster of B2C and partner brands.

The milestone was marked with a weekend of celebrations kicking off September 11, with international staff from across SkillOnNet’s offices flying to Limassol, Cyprus to join the festivities. Parties were held each evening over the weekend, with keynote speeches that reflected on the company’s journey, its future vision, and the strength of its employees.

“Today, we present our new company identity, which unites all of our offices under one strong, recognizable brand – a brand that reflects our culture: fun and passionate, but above all, one that unites us as a single, powerful team,” said Ohad Narkis, co-founder of SkillonNet’s flagship brand PlayOJO, adding that the change was about “unity, clarity, and strength reflecting internally within the organization as well as externally with partners and suppliers .”

“It helps us move faster, work smarter, and deliver our values: We’re experts in play, hands on, and always better together,” he added.

Founded in 2005 with a focus on online backgammon, SkillOnNet quickly pivoted into casino entertainment, laying the foundation for a platform that now powers some of the industry’s most successful brands, including PlayOJO, DrückGlück, BacanaPlay and Genting.

Today, the company holds more than a dozen local licenses across Europe, South America, and North America, and serves millions of players worldwide.

“We are now truly an entertainment company, with a proprietary technology and best of class operation serving millions – players who are, after our employees, our greatest asset,” Kfir Chervinski SkillOnNet Founder said; “As we celebrate 20 years in iGaming, this rebrand marks more than just a fresh identity – it’s a milestone that reflects who we are and where we’re headed. So, here’s to the next decade of growth, innovation, and delivering the best in play.”
