Eureka Casino Resort – the only resort on the 100 Medium Workplaces list for 2018
In 2015, Eureka Casino Resort took a gamble that was rare for a casino company. The family-owned, Nevada-based company sold their business to their staff through an employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”), making it one of only two employee-owned casinos in America. That gamble has paid off in many ways with the latest jackpot being inclusion on Fortune Magazine’s 2018 list of Top 100 Medium Workplaces in America.
Previously, the resort had been owned by the Lee family, who started the casino in 1997. When ownership was transferred to their employees, the family feel didn’t go away—instead, the family just got bigger.
It’s a move that’s helped the resort grow and thrive, as employee-owners have taken it upon themselves to see that the company lives up to is mission to improve and innovate every day. Employees at all levels are passionate about their investment, offering input on many decisions, from menu choices to paint colors and they deliver a unique level of care to each guest interaction. “What brings us gratification is working to get better each day,” said Andre Carrier, the company’s COO.
Fortune Magazine compiles the list annually with their research partner, Great Place To Work, and examines businesses with employees between 100 and 999 for the Top 100 Medium Workplaces category.
Gregory T.H. Lee, Eureka’s Chairman and CEO is humbled by the company’s inclusion on the 2018 list. During an interview for a feature in Fortune, he stated, “The employees know that they’re a part of the Eureka family. We all share core values, we’re all investors, and we all define success in the same way.”
Lee continued, “By passing ownership to the men and women I grew the business with, I am assured we will both stay a family and be a strong and growing business for years to come.”
Carrier added, “The employee-owners of Eureka are honored to be included on a list with so many great companies.” To see the full list, visit http://fortune.com/best-medium-workplaces/

“This enhancement transforms how operators can evaluate their sponsorship effectiveness and marketing investments,” stated George Gajevskiy, Chief Product Officer of Blask. “By providing detailed daily historical data, we’re enabling our partners to optimize their marketing strategies more precisely than ever before.”
Blask’s AI technology has advanced its data analysis capabilities, enabling the processing and interpretation of vast amounts of historical data with remarkable precision. This technological leap enhances the platform’s ability to provide granular insights, particularly during events like the Indian Premier League (IPL), the Olympic Games, or the World Cup, where market dynamics can shift dramatically within hours.

-
Real-time monitoring of market fluctuations and peak playing hours

With the introduction of daily granularity for long-term data, users can delve deeper into the dynamics of the Blask Index and Relative Market Share over extended periods.

Middlesbrough Foundation set to benefit as principal partner Kindred donates front-of-shirt sponsorship in support of life-changing work across Teesside
The life-changing work of the Middlesbrough FC (MFC) Foundation is set to receive a significant boost this weekend. The club’s principal partner, Kindred, has donated its front-of-shirt sponsorship ahead of the game against Hully City (Saturday 30th November), so that MFC can highlight its inspirational work across Teesside. Normally, the logo of gambling operator Unibet – with “Zero% Mission”, which is Kindred’s Responsible gambling message – would adorn First Team shirts.
The move is part of the club’s ‘Foundation Weekend’, and forms part of an initiative to highlight the Foundation’s life-changing work for participants of all ages in the local community, as well as how people in the area can access its projects and services.
The MFC Foundation works to raise aspirations and improve the life chances of young people and adults across Teesside. Its work is supported and funded, in part, by the club’s commercial partners, including Kindred Group.
Kindred is a long-term, valued partner of the club. As part of its commercial relationship with MFC, Kindred supports MFC Foundation’s ‘Think With Your Feet’ – a programme that enables local men to meet, play football and discuss their mental health issues in a safe, respectful environment. MFC Foundation works to raise aspirations and improve the life chances of young people and adults across Teesside.
Earlier this season, ‘Boro star Isaiah Jones sat down with a group of participants from the course where they chatted openly about mental health and the benefits of the ‘Think With Your Feet’ programme.
Kindred have partnered with Middlesbrough since 2018, making it one of the most successful and long-running in British football. It is due to run until at least 2027.
Sam Mead, UK General Manager, Kindred: “Our relationship with Middlesbrough FC and their Foundation is a long-running, deep and supportive one. We are all aware, and incredibly proud of, the Foundation’s incredible work in the North-East community. As such, we are delighted to once again donate our normal front-of-shirt space to the Foundation for this weekend’s fixture against Hull City. In the spirit of what this weekend is all about, we would urge supporters to seek out the MFC’s outreach programmes, if they feel they could benefit from the various initiatives on offer. Please visit mfcfoundation.co.uk for further information”
