An important gambling industry conference takes place this week in Milan, Italy!
European Gaming Congress (EGC) is just a few days away and the much-awaited conference is gathering major industry names among the speakers and delegates lists.
On the 8th of November at Radisson Blu Hotel Milan, high representatives of major industry operators and service providers will join regulators and gambling industry experts for a full day of quality learning and networking.
You can register here or view the agenda here!
EGC was created in order to help industry shareholders to cover more jurisdictions and expand their gambling business across European markets that work best for their budgets and strategy.
By creating this platform, we have enabled operators, software and service providers, regulators and industry experts to meet yearly in remote locations and discuss opportunities and updates from regions that we are not covering via Prague Gaming Summit, MARE BALTICUM Gaming Summit, and CEEGC Budapest.
This way, you have the opportunity to learn from genuine world-class experts of the gaming industry who share their knowledge about the state of the gambling industry in South / South West Europe, West Europe, Benelux, and D-A-CH region.
When it comes to content, we are bringing top quality as usual and here are the premium panel discussions in which you can engage or learn from during your time spent at EGC Milan:

Meridianbet Launches ‘Scan. Help.’ Humanitarian Initiative to Support Maternity Hospitals in Southeast Europe
Meridianbet, a member of the Golden Matrix Group (NASDAQ: GMGI), in partnership with Meridianbet Foundation, Expanse Studios, and BC Crvena zvezda Meridianbet announces the launch of a significant humanitarian initiative, ‘Scan. Help.’, aimed at supporting maternity hospitals across Southeast Europe.
The rollout of this action to other market territories is expected in the remainder of 2024.
How It Works
For every scanned QR code and subsequent registration on the Meridian Foundation’s website, funds will be allocated towards equipping five maternity hospitals in Serbia. This innovative approach not only raises awareness but also actively involves the community in our CSR activities.
The initiative is currently ongoing with high media presence and is broadcasted during Southeast Europe’s regional basketball Finals series (ABA League). BC Red Star players wear jerseys featuring the QR code, with additional promotion through basketball arena ads, TV ads, and more, encouraging fans and supporters to participate.
A Unified Effort for Community Impact
The ‘Scan. Help.’ campaign is a collaborative effort involving Meridianbet, Meridianbet foundation, Expanse Studios, and basketball club Crvena zvezda Meridianbet, Southeast Europe’s leading basketball club, of which Meridianbet is the name sponsor. The initiative is designed to leverage our collective resources and influence to make a meaningful impact on local communities.
Multi-Stakeholder Support and Growing Participation
The ‘Scan. Help.’ campaign has received institutional support ad backing from the Ministry of Health, reinforcing the importance and legitimacy of this cause. Additionally, several companies have already expressed their desire to contribute, with provisions made for donations through the Meridian Foundation’s account. This broadening support network amplifies the initiative’s reach and potential impact.
This campaign exemplifies Meridianbet’s dedication to sustainable development and community well-being. In 2023 alone, the company has launched 225 CSR campaigns, reflecting the commitment to making a lasting impact.
