Fijma 2023 for three days in Madrid

The international gambling fair Fijma will be back in presence in 2023 after a two -year break. Today, on March 15, 2023, the event starts in Madrid. Due to the Corona pandemic, the trade fair 2020 and 2021 could only take place virtually. Now many industry representatives from Europe use the event to be able to participate in person again.

Many companies take the opportunity

From March 15th to March 17th, companies can present their innovations. Among other things, Coder, Novomatic Span, IPS and Gewte have already announced this. The fair is also ideal for making new s within the gambling industry. This is how Jorge Alcedo-Account Executive at IPS, a company that develops IT solutions for slot machine management. According to him, “Madrid […] will be transformed into the world capital of gambling for a few days. It will be the perfect opportunity to find out more about the latest developments in this sector and of course also to make s, which is very important. ”He also described the presence on the Fijma as“ a must ”.

Not only IPS, but also other important sizes from the industry from all over Europe apparently see it that way. Because Novomatic Spain also commented in this direction in a statement. So the company returns to the gaming fair “with more enthusiasm than ever” and wants to be represented with three brands – especially with Novomatic, Apex and gigames. Other plans of the company would also include a live area with many surprises. Among other things, a new game from Gigames should be shown to the participants of the fair. It is said to be a game that their players would go back to the 1990s for a good 30 years in the past.

Care and code among participants

In addition to Novomatic Spain and IPs, you can see a press release from the fact that the subsidiary of the Gauselmann Group will also be present. The Fijma 2023 is “more international than ever and will probably remain for a long time. The decision not to take part in ICE London together with other manufacturers will make the ‘fijma22’ a much more important event this year. The Spanish Group Code is also present at the fair and according to an announcement by the company, an innovative mini-competition terminal will be presented.

It is a table terminal that is modular and the individual parts can-if necessary-be replaced quickly, regardless of others. Such a model is unique on the market and can also be used as a coin auditor. After two years of pandemic, the company returns to the gambling fair with new products. These products should “improve customer experience” and also offer players “all guarantees for a safe game”. According to the company, there is a special challenge of the sector: The balance will be found between an attractive gambling offer and the important player protection.

Player protection in the virtual age

Player protection should be in the foreground, especially with virtual gambling offers. Because there are many mobile offers, you can fall back on anywhere. Due to the quick possible access to the websites, the hurdle is to be able to take part in the game of games of chance smaller than with land -based arcades. In this way, problematic playing behavior can be created and promoted. Legislation in many European countries reacted to this and wants to strengthen player protection. Many countries are working on gambling laws-for example Great Britain-or have already done so-such as USA. Even if the stricter regulations of some companies are rather critically understood and the market could appear to be unattractive for them, it is good for player protection and thus represents a legitimate purpose.
