MGM Resorts’ Alan Feldman Elected Chairman Of The Nevada State Advisory Committee On Problem Gambling
Reading Time: 3 minutes
Problem Gambling Awareness Month underway across MGM Resorts, highlighting March Madness
MGM Resorts International announced that long-time executive Alan Feldman has been elected as chairman of the Nevada State Advisory Committee on Problem Gambling (ACPG), under the Department of Health and Human Services. The Committee’s mission is to support effective problem gambling prevention, education, treatment and research programs throughout the state.
Feldman is MGM Resorts’ Executive Vice President of Global Industry Affairs and oversees the planning and implementation of the MGM Resorts’ policy development on industry issues and programs with a focus on responsible gambling. In his role as chairman of the ACPG, he will assist the Committee in their mission to support effective problem gambling prevention, education, treatment, and research programs throughout the state. The ACPG also aims to improve the public health of Nevadans through a sustainable and comprehensive system of programs and services that reduce the impact of problem gambling.
“It’s an honor and a privilege to be elected as the new chair of the Nevada State Advisory Committee on Problem Gambling,” Feldman said. “I am proud to serve as a representative of the state’s gaming industry, which shares the same goals for education, prevention, treatment and research on responsible gambling. I look forward to working with the ACPG on establishing a comprehensive program to achieve these goals across the state.”
“Mr. Feldman’s willingness to serve in this capacity is another example of the gaming industry’s longstanding commitment to working with all stakeholders to address this important community health issue,” said Carol O’Hare, Executive Director of the Nevada Council on Problem Gambling, and member of the ACPG.
Feldman recently spearheaded the launch of GameSense, MGM Resorts’ player-focused responsible gambling program that encourages players to adopt behaviors and attitudes that can reduce the risk of developing gambling disorders. This landmark program is now available at all of MGM Resorts’ U.S. properties. It is the first program of its kind in the industry and has already sparked more than 750,000 positive responsible gambling conversations with guests and has earned recognition from the National Council on Problem Gambling.
Additionally, Feldman serves as Chairman of the Board of the National Center for Responsible Gaming and has been a long-serving member of the Advisory Board of the Nevada Council on Problem Gambling. In 2017, he was appointed by Nevada Governor Brian Sandoval to serve on the state’s Advisory Committee on Problem Gambling. Feldman is also a frequent speaker on responsible gambling at conferences, universities and media events across North America and Asia.
This appointment comes as MGM Resorts marks Problem Gambling Awareness Month. Throughout March, MGM Resorts is partnering with the National Council on Problem Gambling to help spread awareness and to educate guests on how to make informed and responsible decisions while playing — with the ultimate goal — to keep gambling fun.
MGM Resorts’ commitment and effort to integrate responsible gambling education into its entire guest model has received national recognition.
The effort is taking place as newly opened sports books prepare for an influx of guests for March Madness. Casino and race and sports book employees across all of MGM Resorts have participated in GameSense training, reinforcing how to have positive conversations with our guests about betting responsibly during March Madness and year-round.

G2’s 10yr Anniversary Celebrations Continue with their First-Ever Anime Capsule Collaboration with Solo Leveling
Reading Time: 3 minutes
- The limited-edition G2 x Solo Leveling capsule collection launches November 14, featuring streetwear pieces that capture the spirit of a generation raised on anime, gaming, and fashion, with quiet confidence stitched into every piece
- The capsule marks G2’s first-ever anime collaboration and Solo Leveling’s debut entry into the world of esports
- The collection will be available for purchase exclusively via G2’s shop front
- Solo Leveling took the anime world by storm becoming the most-rated series ever on Crunchyroll
G2, one of the world’s leading entertainment and esports brands, is proud to unveil its first-ever anime collaboration with Solo Leveling, the globally acclaimed anime phenomenon, for the launch of a limited-edition capsule collection. With gaming and anime blurring the lines more than ever, this new collaboration unites the worlds of competitive gaming, anime and street fashion, and continues to disrupt the esports fashion space.
Inspired by Solo Leveling’s signature dark visuals and its powerful, underdog narrative, the collection channels the spirit of transformation that defines both the anime and G2’s competitive ethos. The design direction is deliberately dark and understated, with flashes of lightning and sparks that echo Solo Leveling hero Jin-Woo’s bursts of power as he levels up in the shadows of underground dungeons and daily grinds. Each item in the drop balances minimalist silhouettes and tonal palettes with refined visual cues – subtle details that speak volumes to those who IYKYK.
This collaboration is more than merchandise; it is a wearable narrative, tapping into the mindset of a generation raised on glow-ups, grind culture, and story-driven self-expression. Crafted for people who exist online and offline simultaneously, the G2 x Solo Leveling capsule fits seamlessly into the language of modern high-low streetwear, designed for everyday wear while remaining rooted in story and symbolism.
Solo Leveling has quickly become one of the most successful anime series of recent years. Since its premiere in early 2024, it has built a devoted global fanbase and earned nine awards at the 2025 Crunchyroll Anime Awards, including Anime of the Year. The series tells the story of Sung Jin-Woo, a once-weak hunter who rises in secret to become the most powerful player in a gamified world, a character arc that strongly aligns with G2’s own “zero to hero” journey. The first two seasons are available to stream exclusively on Crunchyroll.
The capsule collection is the latest in a line of exclusive drops from G2, following high-profile collaborations with Ralph Lauren, Warner Bro’s Batman, and iconic lifestyle brand Smiley. It’s another step forward in G2’s journey as a cultural leader, redefining what it means to be an esports organisation.
“We’ve wanted to release an anime collaboration for the longest time so we’re more than excited to kick off our first ever anime drop with Solo Leveling. It feels like the perfect fit for G2’s story – relentless, transformative, and built from the grind up.” says Sabrina Ratih, COO of G2 Esports. “This is more than a fashion drop, it’s a statement of where gaming, anime, and street culture are headed. We’re not just celebrating a shared story of power and perseverance, we’re inviting fans to wear that story, live it and own it. This collection continues our quest to reshape esports fashion and create subtle statement pieces that bridge the gap between fandom and lifestyle.”
Celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, the organisation continues to evolve from an elite competitive force into a global lifestyle brand. With over 40 million fans worldwide and entering into new ventures such as its own media house, 62, and a recent expansion into traditional sports via Gerard Piqué’s Kings League.
The G2 x Solo Leveling Capsule Collection will be available for purchase exclusively through G2’s online store g2esports.com from November 14.

Clever Advertising opens new Malta office, launches fully paid work experience programme for young local talent
Reading Time: 3 minutes
Clever Advertising, a performance marketing agency for tier one iGaming operators and Fintechs, has today officially launched its new strategic office in Malta, reinforcing the island’s growing reputation as a European hub for digital and technology-driven industries.
The new office, located over two floors at the Wembley Business Centre in Msida, will serve as the company’s main base outside Portugal. Its opening marks an important step in Clever Advertising’s global expansion and will bring new career opportunities to Malta’s digital sector.
From Portugal to the world
Founded in Porto, Portugal, in 2007, Clever Advertising has grown into a global leader in affiliate and performance marketing, specialising in the iGaming and Financial Services industries. The company helps international brands attract new customers through a mix of digital advertising, SEO, mobile campaigns, influencer partnerships, and other online marketing channels. Clever Advertising operates on a partnership model – investing its own resources upfront to acquire customers for its clients and earning revenue only when those campaigns succeed.
Silvio Schembri, Minister for Economy, Enterprise and Strategic Projects commented “Clever Advertising’s decision to expand in Malta is another proof of the confidence investors continue to place in our country. Their growth reflects the direction we are taking through Malta Vision 2050, strengthening high-value sectors and creating quality careers for our youths. I particularly welcome their commitment to developing local talent through the Clever Launchpad, which aligns perfectly with our efforts to equip our youths with valuable skills in this fast-evolving sector. As a government, we will keep fostering the right environment for innovative companies to grow.”
Ivan Filletti, CEO of Gaming Malta commented: “Today, we are not only celebrating the inauguration of new offices, but also the continued strengthening of Malta’s gaming ecosystem. We are delighted to welcome Clever Advertising — a company whose energy, values, and investment in both people and interactive entertainment align with the Malta Vision 2050 framework, our roadmap for sustainable growth and resilience.”
“This is an exciting milestone for Clever Advertising,” said Alberto Simões, Managing Director for Malta. “Malta was a natural strategic choice for us. The island offers a thriving talent pool, close proximity to key clients, and a solid regulatory environment in both the Gaming and Financial Services sectors – all of which make it one of the best places in Europe to grow a tech business.
“Our company operates on a true partnership model. We invest upfront to acquire new customers for our clients and share in the resulting revenue. This success-based structure means that when our clients grow, we grow. It’s a win–win model that will directly contribute to the Maltese economy, help generate sustainable jobs, and build long-term partnerships rather than short-term campaigns.
“We’re here to be part of Malta’s business community for the long term, not only as employers, but as partners helping to advance innovation and professional skills on the island.”
Creating jobs and developing skills
The company today also announced its intention to invest in local talent development through the Clever Launchpad, a paid work experience initiative designed for Maltese youth who have recently finished school and are not yet in work or further education.
The programme offers hands-on experience, mentorship, and international exposure within the fast-growing digital sector. Participants will also have the opportunity to spend time at Clever Advertising’s headquarters in Porto. The scheme will be fully funded by Clever Advertising.
“We believe opportunity should be accessible to everyone,” added Simões. “The Clever Launchpad scheme tackles the misconception that digital jobs at international companies in Malta aren’t for the local residents. It’s designed to open doors for young people, even those without a university degree, and give them the chance to build a global career from right here in Malta.”
