德国官员警告:伊斯兰主义与极左言论正推动反犹袭击激增

(SeaPRwire) -   德国正面临反犹主义急剧上升,官员们警告称,伊斯兰主义者和极左翼网络正在利用中东战争煽动反犹太言论,动员支持者,并对犹太社区造成骚扰和暴力。根据黑森州宪法保护办公室的一项研究,这些团体利用以色列-哈马斯战争和更广泛的地区紧张局势作为借口,放大反犹叙事,声称加沙正在发生“种族灭绝”,并将以色列描绘成一个殖民国家。当局表示,此类言论正越来越多地被用来为对犹太人的敌意,甚至在某些情况下为暴力行为辩护。德国内政部长罗曼·博塞克警告称,这一趋势正在升级。他在一份声明中表示:“反犹主义是对我们社会凝聚力的最大威胁之一——尤其是来自伊斯兰主义和左翼极端主义阵营。”这些发展引发了更广泛的担忧,官员和犹太领袖警告称,与中东冲突相关的类似反犹主义言论模式正在包括美国在内的西方民主国家出现。鉴于德国因其历史和对仇恨言论的法律框架而被长期视为风向标,这些发现被视为主流话语如何从边缘走向主流的警示信号。博塞克委托黑森州宪法保护办公室撰写报告,他警告称社会氛围正在恶化,并表示:“反犹主义情绪在公共空间中变得越来越无法容忍。” “我深感羞愧,80年第二次世界大战结束后,德国的犹太人仍然要遭受这样的苦难,”他继续说道。“特别是我们德国人,有责任永远记住所发生的一切。”德国中央犹太人委员会的一份新全国调查报告显示,在被调查的102个犹太社区中,有46个社区报告了反犹主义事件,突显了威胁的日益扩大。该调查中最常见的事件包括言语辱骂、威胁电话、破坏公物和反犹涂鸦。68%的受访者表示,自2023年10月7日哈马斯对以色列发动袭击以来,他们感觉在德国生活不再那么安全。中央委员会主席约瑟夫·施特劳斯在一份新闻稿中说:“10月7日之后反犹主义激增,一种‘新常态’已经形成。”“在这种新情况下,犹太社区需要持续的保护,反犹主义已经成为公共领域的一种常态。”报告还发现,更广泛的地缘政治发展继续直接影响德国的犹太社区。62%的受访者表示,伊朗参与的近期战争加剧了他们的不安全感,而三分之二的受访者认为加沙停火并没有改善他们的安全状况。犹太领袖表示,这些影响正在日常生活中显现。许多犹太人越来越避免公开表明自己的身份,例如佩戴大卫之星或犹太小圆帽(基帕),因为他们担心受到骚扰。在某些情况下,由于安全考虑,一些活动已被取消。与此同时,报告强调感知到的社会支持大幅下降。只有35%的社区表示感受到更广泛市民社会的团结,而这一数字在2023年为62%。当局表示,此类言论的常态化正在改变可接受公共讨论的界限。这些发现凸显出日益增长的担忧,即曾经被视为局限于边缘的反犹主义正在公共生活中变得更加明显,使犹太社区感到越来越孤立和无助。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

Entain confirms Ricky Sandler’s exit after Eminence Capital closure

(AsiaGameHub) -   Entain has verified that Ricky Sandler, the founder of Eminence Capital, has stepped down from his role as Non-Executive Director. This announcement comes after the reported shutdown of the Eminence fund last week, during which Sandler noted that the business had “fallen short of our very high standard and your expectations”. Eminence was understood to be the third-largest shareholder in Entain, owning roughly 6.5% of the Ladbrokes Coral parent company. Sandler took his seat on the board in early 2024. Sandler’s history with Entain During that era, and indeed beforehand, he was highly critical of the company’s $766m (£565m) purchase of Polish operator STS Group, calling the move “perplexing on many levels”. However, he seems to have built a friendly rapport with Entain Chairman Pierre Bouchut and current CEO Stella David. David was the interim CEO when Sandler joined, taking over after Jette Nygaard-Andersen left. It should be noted that the STS Group deal was finalized under Nygaard-Andersen’s watch, following her departure amid claims she was losing favour with shareholders.Addressing Sandler’s exit, Bouchut remarked: “On behalf of the board, I thank Ricky for his support over the past two years. “Thanks to his contributions the company is in a stronger position and is well equipped to capitalise on the many opportunities in the global sports betting and gaming market.”Entain was not the only gambling firm in Eminence’s portfolio; they also held stakes in US-listed DraftKings and Flutter Entertainment, though Sandler did not sit on the board of either. Since joining Entain, Sandler witnessed the company navigate numerous challenges, including tax hikes across Europe—especially in the UK—as well as management changes and store closures. Nonetheless, in his final statement as an Entain Director, Sandler reiterated his belief in the company. “It has been a pleasure to have served on the Entain board for the last two years,” he stated. “During that time, Entain has seen significant operational transformation, and the business is well positioned to deliver continuing strong growth. I have the utmost confidence in Entain’s management and board to deliver enhanced shareholder value. “Entain shares are held in accounts and funds managed by Eminence Capital, which will be liquidated in an orderly manner, without any pre-determined time constraints, with the intention of maximising value realisation.” Ricky Sandler. Credit: Eminence Capital Sandler’s departure arrives shortly after Entain released its Q1 2026 results, which showed resilience despite the tax issues mentioned earlier. The firm posted a 3% rise in group-wide Q1 revenue, with strong showings in the UK, Ireland, and Australia. The company stays on the FTSE 100—the London Stock Exchange’s leading index—and executives are confident about gaining market share, even though it now sits as the 94th most valuable company on the index with a market cap of about £3.63bn.

Meridian Holdings Reports $2.3m Net Profit in Q1 Under New Identity

(AsiaGameHub) -   Meridian Holdings has achieved a significant milestone, reporting its initial profitable quarter since adopting its new corporate identity. In the first quarter, Golden Matrix Group Inc (GMGI), listed on NASDAQ, finalized its rebranding to Meridian Holdings, also changing its ticker to MRDN as part of a broader strategic shift to become a multi-market gaming entity. Upon releasing its Q1 financial results, Meridian disclosed total group revenue of $50.1 million (£37 million), representing a 17% increase year-over-year from $42.5 million. Gross profit climbed to $28.1 million (a 16% rise), with profit margins remaining consistent at 56.2%, largely mirroring the previous year's figures. Meridianbet, which stands as the largest gambling company in Serbia and Montenegro, remains the primary engine of growth. This segment contributed $34.9 million in Q1 revenue, a 26% year-over-year increase, making up almost 70% of the group's overall revenues. Meridian's corporate financial statements revealed a net income of $2.3 million, marking its inaugural profitable quarter since adopting the new identity structure. This indicates that its restructuring and rebranding efforts are starting to yield positive financial outcomes. Chairman William Scott characterized this quarter as a pivotal moment for the company. Scott stated, “This quarter represents a significant achievement in our trajectory of growth.” “We achieved revenues consistent with our projections, surpassed our profitability forecasts, and further solidified our balance sheet, all while investing in our proprietary technology and extending our presence into regulated markets,” he added. Enhanced balance sheet performance was a prominent aspect of the report. Net debt decreased by 62% year-over-year to $13.4 million, and total debt was reduced by over 50%. The group concluded the quarter with $16.2 million in cash, demonstrating a more prudent financial position post-transformation. Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) showed new customer registrations climbing 41% year-on-year to almost 500,000, with active users growing 21% to 333,700. This underscores sustained demand across both physical and online platforms. In other areas, RKings Competitions recorded $7.7 million in sales within the UK, bolstered by better per-customer economics. In Australia, Classics for a Cause surpassed 10,000 VIP subscribers, and Mexplay, the group's brand targeting Mexico, saw its registrations more than triple year-on-year to 74,000. For the upcoming period, Meridian projects Q2 revenues to be between $51 million and $53 million, suggesting ongoing double-digit year-over-year growth of 18% to 23%. Meridianbet identifies substantial growth prospects in its core markets of Serbia and Montenegro, which are undergoing regulatory changes in the second half of the year. To conclude the update, Chairman William Scott reiterated the company's commitment to profitability as Meridian proceeds with its search for a new CEO, following Brian Goodman's departure in December 2025. Scott further stated: “These outcomes affirm that our transformation efforts are yielding results. Meridian Holdings now operates with enhanced discipline, more robust cash flow fundamentals, and a distinct path toward sustained long-term expansion.” This article is provided by a third-party.

BET99: Alberta’s affiliate playbook should mirror Ontario’s model

(AsiaGameHub) -   Securing a competitive edge in Canada remains a primary hurdle for operators. We sat down with Andrew Garven, Head of Affiliate Marketing at BET99, to discuss why authenticity has become a vital component for affiliates aiming to drive player engagement. iGaming Expert: How has the affiliate marketing landscape in Canada transformed as the market has reached maturity? Andrew Garven: If you are still relying on traditional SEO volume tactics in Canada, you are already falling behind. The industry has moved away from a focus on CPA and search rankings toward a model built on trust, quality, and accountability. Regulation didn't stifle the market; it refined it. Today’s leaders are affiliates who cultivate genuine relationships with their audience rather than simply operating as traffic funnels. How vital are affiliates in guiding players toward the regulated market and away from unregulated alternatives? Having experienced both sides of the operator-affiliate dynamic, I believe affiliates hold more influence than most regulators or operators are willing to acknowledge. They serve as the primary gatekeepers at the top of the funnel, dictating discovery and establishing trust. When executed correctly, they steer players toward regulated platforms; when handled poorly, they can just as easily direct them toward unlicensed sites. In a landscape like Canada, where both regulated and unregulated ecosystems exist, the role of affiliates in educating users and fostering trust is essential—provided they prioritize quality and compliance. Why is authenticity such a key tool for affiliates to engage players and support the growth of regulated markets? Authenticity is paramount because affiliates operate at the intersection of discovery and trust. Users in regulated markets are more sophisticated and have higher expectations; they can easily spot generic or purely transactional content. Authentic affiliates distinguish themselves by providing genuine insights, transparent comparisons, and evidence-based recommendations, which fosters long-term credibility. This is particularly critical for toplists: if inferior or obscure brands are ranked above reputable, industry-leading operators, it erodes trust in the platform. Once that credibility is gone, users won't return. In regulated markets, authenticity is more than just a differentiator—it is a direct driver of retention, engagement, and the long-term viability of the affiliate ecosystem. What impact will the World Cup have on the ability of affiliates to engage the market and capture market share? Soccer is already the world’s leading sport for betting, so the 2026 World Cup will not necessarily create new demand, but rather concentrate existing attention. You will see casual bettors re-engaging, lapsed users returning, and experienced players becoming significantly more active—all simultaneously. For Canada, the fact that it is a co-host elevates the tournament from a global event to a domestic cultural phenomenon. That is significant. It brings betting into the mainstream conversation in a way we haven't witnessed before, perhaps with the exception of Canada vs. USA hockey at the 4 Nations and Olympics. For Canadian affiliates, this creates a uniquely favorable environment to capture market share quickly, but I would emphasize that this is a temporary spike, not a structural change. Success will go to those who can convert this surge in interest into lasting user value before the market stabilizes. Which types of iGaming affiliates have been most effective at engaging the Canadian market? The most successful affiliates in Canada are those that have transitioned into multi-channel, personality-driven media brands. The top brands are backed by real people—creators, analysts, and voices that audiences trust and return to consistently. While SEO and comparison tools remain important for discovery, they are merely the starting point. The user journey is no longer linear. A user might land on a site, but then check their social media, watch a video, read comments, and get a sense of who is behind the brand. That is what builds the trust that ultimately leads to conversion. It is no longer about a single channel. The winners are those who integrate multiple channels to build relationships, because in this market, while attention may be fragmented, trust remains personal. In a newly regulated market like Alberta, should affiliates that previously operated in the grey market be welcomed into the regulated space? Yes, provided they adhere to regulatory and compliance standards. In Alberta, grey-market affiliates bring established audiences, local expertise, and proven acquisition strategies, which are valuable in a new regulatory environment. However, we must see a definitive shift toward transparency, responsible gambling, and compliant operations. Those who adapt quickly can become trusted partners in the regulated ecosystem, while those who do not pose a risk to operators and the market should not be included. As Alberta opens up, what role will affiliates play in helping new operators gain market share? As Alberta launches, affiliates will be essential to capturing market share, and the strategy should mirror the Ontario model. However, unlike the early days of Ontario, category awareness is already high due to the significant marketing budgets of Tier 1 operators in Ontario and the U.S. This makes the affiliate landscape more competitive, not less. SEO alone will not suffice. The winners will be those who build trusted brands across content, social media, and community platforms, helping users decide where to play rather than just where to click. Garven is scheduled to speak at the SBC Summit Canada, taking place from 19–21 May at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre. The event will gather operators, suppliers, regulators, and affiliates at a critical juncture for the Canadian gaming industry as Alberta moves toward a regulated market expected to follow the Ontario framework.

SBC Summit Canada 2026 Welcomes Back Cybersecurity in Gaming Summit, Centred on AI and Risk

(AsiaGameHub) -   As artificial intelligence broadens the attack surface and cyber threats become increasingly sophisticated, the gaming industry faces growing pressure to enhance oversight and control. The Cybersecurity in Gaming Summit returns in 2026 to tackle these challenges, with a strong emphasis on risk management, regulatory compliance, and organizational resilience. The event will take place on Wednesday, May 20, as part of the SBC Summit Canada 2026 conference programme. Developed in collaboration with the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG), it unites cybersecurity professionals, legal and compliance experts, and industry leaders for an in-depth exploration of one of the sector’s most pressing concerns. Beyond identifying potential risks, the summit will examine how organizations can respond effectively—ranging from managing AI-driven threats to establishing governance frameworks capable of withstanding rising regulatory demands. “Gaming operators manage vast amounts of player data and financial transactions, making cybersecurity a top priority across the industry,” said Graham Reed, Vice President of Cyber and Information Security at OLG. “Each technological advancement brings new risks that evolve in tandem. With AI, the key difference today is the unprecedented speed and scale of those threats. The question of whether we’re moving quickly enough has never been more critical. This summit aims to ensure Canadian operators are actively planning for what lies ahead.” As the industry navigates these complexities, the summit will feature prominent voices in AI and ethics, including Nell Watson, a philosopher, engineer, and author who will participate twice during the day. With decades of experience spanning ethics, emerging technologies, and artificial intelligence, Watson has held leadership positions at the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the European Responsible Artificial Intelligence Office (EURAIO). She has advised major organizations such as Apple and Amazon and delivered talks at leading institutions including the World Bank, the United Nations General Assembly, and the Royal Society. Watson will open the day with a keynote address titled “The Agent in the Machine: Trust, Capability and the New AI Era” on the Leaders Stage. The session will explore how agentic AI is transforming cybersecurity and compelling organizations to rethink concepts of trust and control. It will also address how operators can responsibly deploy AI while maintaining robust governance structures. She will also join OLG’s Graham Reed for the fireside chat “Bonus Level: An Interactive Conversation with Our Keynote.” Together, they will discuss strategies related to agentic AI before opening the discussion to a live audience Q&A. The session “Cybersecurity in Gaming: Emerging Risks and Opportunities” will analyze how cyber threats are becoming more automated, coordinated, and influenced by AI—including the emergence of agentic systems. Experts Rick Carville (VP, Cybersecurity & CISO, Great Canadian Entertainment), Bryan Pollitt (Associate Partner, Consulting, EY Canada), and moderator Graham Reed (Vice President, Cyber & Information Security Office, OLG) will discuss key vulnerability points, evolving attack methodologies, and strategies to strengthen overall resilience. “Mastering Agentic AI: The Playbook for Safe & Scalable Autonomy” will examine how agentic AI is reshaping operational models, necessitating a shift from passive risk management to proactive, organization-wide capability building. Led by Graham Reed and moderated by Tom Nightingale (Editor, Canadian Gaming Business), the session will focus on aligning cybersecurity, IT, and business teams to securely implement autonomous systems. The panel “Proving Control: Compliance and Accountability in a Changing Risk Environment” will address how organizations can transition from merely understanding risks to demonstrating concrete control and accountability amid rapid technological change. Participants include Graham Reed, Tony Wong (General Counsel, OLG), Karl Rempel (Senior Manager, Technology Regulation and Compliance, ACGO), and Danielle M. Bush (Senior Counsel, McCarthy Tétrault), who will explore adaptable compliance frameworks suited to evolving regulations and new technologies. “Cybersecurity is rapidly becoming one of the defining challenges facing the gaming industry,” stated Aidan Brain, VP of Conference Production at SBC. “Collaborating with OLG enables us to anchor this programme in practical, real-world experience and focus on the actual risks organizations are confronting today.” OLG is a Crown agency responsible for overseeing lottery, casino, digital, and charitable gaming operations in Ontario, as well as supporting the province’s horse racing sector. Since its establishment in 1975, OLG has contributed nearly $64 billion to the people and government of Ontario, funding vital initiatives such as healthcare, problem gambling treatment and prevention, and amateur sports. Its proceeds also benefit host communities, Ontario First Nations, lottery retailers, and local charities throughout the province. All of OLG’s profits are reinvested directly into Ontario. SBC Summit Canada will run from May 19–21 at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, uniting operators, suppliers, regulators, and affiliates at a crucial juncture for the Canadian gaming landscape, especially as Alberta prepares to launch a regulated market expected to mirror Ontario’s model.

Greentube Acquires Kingsbet CZ for Czech Expansion

(AsiaGameHub) -   Greentube has further advanced its European expansion by acquiring Kingsbet CZ in the Czech Republic. Pending regulatory approvals, the developer will assume full ownership of the online sportsbook and casino operator, marking its entry into the Czech Republic’s B2C gaming sector. David Vaněk, CEO of Kingsbet, stated: “We are enthusiastic about joining the Greentube group. This collaboration provides us with opportunities for growth and investment, as well as access to cutting-edge technology and globally recognized game studios. It will enable us to enhance the player experience and continue expanding within the Czech market.” Following the acquisition, Greentube aims to leverage Kingsbet’s expertise to grow in a market valued at over €2.7 billion. Kingsbet was established in 2023 and commenced operations in the Czech Republic one year later. It became one of the initial operators to obtain approval under the country’s revised regulatory framework in 2024. Still in its early stages, the brand is striving to compete with more established names such as Tipsort, Fortuna, and Sazka. Through this acquisition, Greentube also intends to strengthen its existing B2B presence in the Czech Republic, where it has supplied games to Kingsbet for several years. Ronald van den Brink, CCO of Greentube, remarked: “Entering the Czech market aligns with our long-term growth strategy. The Czech Republic ranks among Europe’s most progressive and strictly regulated gaming markets. By partnering with Kingsbet, we gain a skilled local team that will support our continued expansion.” This marks another move by Greentube into the B2C sector. In the UK, Greentube operates the Admiral Casino brand, while it also owns StarGames in Germany. Meanwhile, Novomatic—the parent company of Greentube—has extensive experience managing both online and retail-based gaming operators. This article is provided by a third-party.

Hub88 gives operators control through the latest upgrade

(AsiaGameHub) -   Hub88 has enhanced its product lineup by introducing My Products. This new feature is now integrated into the company’s HubConnect solution, providing operators with a dashboard where they can view their complete product catalog, track activation status, adjust preferences, and enable multiple games in bulk. According to Hub88, the launch of My Products highlights its commitment to giving operators greater control and aligns with its ‘one-stop-shop’ approach. Ollie Castleman, Managing Director at Hub88, stated: “As operators grow and build more robust lobbies, managing game offerings can quickly become a complex and inefficient process. “My Products offers our partners a faster, more intuitive way to take charge of their content—from discovery to activation—all within a single, streamlined experience. Using the new feature, Hub88’s partners can now launch new titles with a single request, eliminating the need for manual follow-ups. Bulk activation also allows brands to roll out multiple products at once. Hub88 expands content via new studio partnership Alongside its new product launches, Hub88 has also strengthened its aggregation platform through a fresh partnership with ScatterKings, an emerging iGaming studio. Through this collaboration, ScatterKings’ content portfolio will now be available to Hub88’s network of operator partners. This includes games like Big Bob’s Gold, Coins Forged in Fire, and Coins of Cleo. ScatterKings is a relatively new player in the iGaming space, founded in 2024. The studio’s Chief Commercial Officer, Steve Cross, called partnering with Hub88 an ‘important step’ in expanding the company’s global distribution reach. On the deal, Castleman added: “ScatterKings has quickly made an impression in the sector, and we were drawn to their portfolio because of its focus on creating truly engaging entertainment. “The product quality and commercial benefits of these games will help us continue to provide operator partners with unique content that has lasting appeal in their lobbies.” This article is provided by a third-party.

Stake launches in Mexico as country considers gambling reform

(AsiaGameHub) -   Stake is welcoming a new regulatory era in Mexico as the nation continues moving away from its semi-regulated framework and takes stricter action against unlicensed operators. Gambling reform has been a high-priority discussion topic in Mexico over the past year, with widespread calls to modernize the country’s 1947 Federal Law of Games and Lotteries to put proper oversight measures in place for online casinos. Proponents of this reform argue it will improve player protection, boost industry investment, and crack down on criminal activity in the lead-up to the FIFA World Cup, which Mexico will co-host alongside the United States and Canada. While a gambling reform bill is expected to be introduced imminently, the Morena administration has added the gaming sector to the Special Tax on Production and Services (IPES), raising the tax on gaming revenue from 30% to 50%. Even so, this tax hike does not appear to have dissuaded Stake from launching its services in the Mexican market. Stake will run its operations in Mexico under a permit-based structure regulated by SEGOB (Ministry of Interior), functioning as an agent under Uno Capali’s existing licensing agreement. Securing approval to operate in Mexico marks another step in the operator’s expanding footprint across Latin American markets, where it already maintains a presence in Colombia and Peru. Stake Director, Jarrod Febbraio, said: “Mexico is an important and dynamic market for us – one that pairs strong underlying growth with a deep-rooted cultural passion for sport, which aligns perfectly with Stake’s core offering. “We have built considerable traction across Latin America in recent years, including in markets such as Peru and Colombia, and Mexico represents a logical next expansion step given its scale and long-term growth potential. “With Mexico set to co-host the 2026 football World Cup tournament, the timing of this launch reflects our ability to strategically enter high-value markets at the optimal moment. It gives us the opportunity to establish a strong foothold ahead of one of the biggest sporting events in the world and deliver a world-class experience for Mexican players.” This article is provided by a third-party.

美国在船只打击中再击毙两名涉嫌毒品走私者

(SeaPRwire) -   美国南方司令部(U.S. Southern Command)表示,美军在加勒比海对一艘与涉嫌毒品贩运活动有关的船只进行了打击,造成两人死亡。U.S. Southern Command (SOUTHCOM) 在社交平台 X 上发文称,Joint Task Force Southern Spear 在指挥官 Francis L. Donovan 将军的指示下,于 5 月 4 日执行了一次“致命的动能打击”。该司令部表示,情报评估显示,该船只当时正沿加勒比海已知的毒品贩运路线航行,并涉嫌从事毒品贩运活动。声明补充称,该船只由官员所称的指定恐怖组织运营。据声明,两名涉嫌“毒品恐怖分子”的男性在打击中丧生,没有美军人员受伤。此次打击是针对拉丁美洲水域涉嫌毒品贩运船只的持续行动的一部分。该行动自 9 月初以来一直在进行,总计已造成至少 188 人死亡。其他打击行动也曾在东太平洋发生。据官员和此前的军方声明,尽管美国目前仍卷入与伊朗的冲突,但这些行动在最近几周再次升级。美国官员将此项工作描述为针对政府所称的西半球“毒品恐怖主义”的更广泛行动的一部分。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

Gold Basin Resources Refutes Helix Resources April 29, 2026 ASX Annoucement

Vancouver, BC, May 5, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Gold Basin Resources Corporation ("Gold Basin" or the "Company") (TSX.V:GXX) alerts the market that the purported joint venture between Gold Basin and Helix Resources Limited ("Helix") (HLX) (the "Invalid Helix Joint Venture") announced by Helix in its ASX Announcement on April 29, 2026 (the "Helix Announcement") is not valid and has no standing. Accordingly, it is the Company's opinion that Helix has no interest or rights in the Gold Basin Property.The Invalid Helix Joint Venture was approved and signed by Gold Basin's prior management contrary to a court order from the Supreme Court of British Columbia issued by Justice Baker on February 2, 2026, restraining Gold Basin from selling, transferring, disposing of, leasing, or encumbering any property of Gold Basin. Furthermore, the Invalid Helix Joint Venture did not receive the required approval of the TSXV and the Company is of the view that the Invalid Helix Joint Venture did not disclose the required Canadian related party transaction disclosures including Kevin Lynn being a director of Helix and a director of Gold Basin Resources (Australia) Pty Ltd., and constituted an improper defensive tactic in response to the announcement of an unsolicited offer by Mayfair Acquisition Corp. to acquire Gold Basin in contravention of National Policy 62-202 - Take-Over Bids - Defensive Tactics.Accordingly, for the above noted reasons, it is the Company's position that no valid joint venture has been formed between Helix and the Company.The Company provides further particulars below with respect to the Invalid Helix Joint Venture and the Helix Announcement which the Company believes shareholders should be made aware of in considering the propriety of the Invalid Helix Joint Venture.Kevin Lynn, a director of Helix was also a director and secretary of Gold Basin Resources (Australia) Pty Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Gold Basin, this was not publicly disclosed by Gold Basin to the market.The purported "Initial Binding Letter JV offer" dated November 12th, 2024 and issued by Helix was on Helix letterhead and was signed by Michael Povey as Chair of Helix. The agreement is dated 52 days before Mr. Povey became a director of Helix on January 3, 2025, and 18 days after Mr. Povey resigned from the board of Gold Basin, and while he was still an advisor to Gold Basin. Mr. Povey falsely claimed to be the Chair of Helix in the November 12th, 2024, document.On March 27, 2025, Helix Resources announced a deal to purchase the White Hills project from companies owned by Charles Straw (Gold Basin's CEO at the time) and Gold Basin's former Consulting Geologist and Project Manager Calvin Heron, a deal which granted the vendors cash consideration and a right to become a material shareholder in Helix Resources.Mr. Straw was appointed as President of Gold Basin on March 19, 2021. It is not clear when Mr. Straw acquired the White Hills project, but Gold Basin referenced this project in a November 2022 press release as containing exploration targets of interest to Gold Basin. Mr. Straw acquired a State lease on a portion of the White Hills project in early 2023 referred to as "Section 2". This acquisition appears to have violated the non-competition and area of influence provisions in Mr. Straw's consulting agreement with Gold Basin and would therefore be in breach of his fiduciary duty to Gold Basin.A little over a month following the announcement of the transaction between Mr. Straw and Helix, Gold Basin issued a press release announcing that Helix, the very Company that Mr. Straw, Gold Basin's CEO had agreed to sell properties to, had purportedly entered into an earn in agreement with Gold Basin to acquire a 40% interest and a 1% net smelter royalty in the Gold Basin Project.Mr. Povey, a close business associate of Mr. Straw (Mr. Povey and Mr. Straw were recently subject to an action in the Supreme Court of Australia by the liquidator of Ochre Group) and a former CEO and director of Gold Basin, was an advisor to Gold Basin and was Chair of Helix at all material times with respect to the negotiation of the Invalid Helix Joint Venture, except for the November 12, 2024 agreement when Mr. Povey represented he was the Chair of Helix but was not.In the Helix Announcement, Helix states as of 30th April 2026 it has no disputes or litigation recorded against it. This statement is not factual. On October 28, 2025, Gold Basin shareholders filed a petition to set aside the Invalid Helix Joint Venture with Gold Basin in the Supreme Court of British Columbia naming Gold Basin and Helix as respondents. The petition outlines the undisclosed related party nature of the purported transaction, the absence of proper approvals, the unfair and unreasonable terms, an improper defensive tactic to a take over proposal, and other breaches of procedures and policies.The Company has reserved all of its rights against the former directors of the Company and has initiated the appropriate steps to file appropriate proceedings to recover from them, personally, any losses the Company alleges it has suffered, and may continue to suffer, as a result of their actions The Company's controlling shareholder, CANEX Metals Inc., has advised that it intends to seek contempt orders against each of the former directors of the Company personally for any breach of the restraining orders issued by the Supreme Court of British Columbia preventing former directors from impairing the value of Gold Basin or its Arizona property.About Gold Basin Resources CorporationGold Basin Resources Corporation holds the 42 km2 Gold Basin Project in Mohave County Arizona. The project hosts large mineralized trends containing near surface oxide gold mineralization and has seen over 800 historic and current drill holes into mineralized deposits up to 1.7 kilometres in length.On Behalf of the Board of Directors"Shane Ebert"Shane Ebert, President, Chief Executive Officer and DirectorFor Further Information Contact:Shane Ebert at 1.250.964.2699info@goldbasinresources.caNeither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its regulation services provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.Forward-Looking StatementsExcept for the historical and present factual information contained herein, the matters set forth in this news release, including words such as "will", "intends", "may" and similar expressions, are forward-looking information that represents Gold Basin Resources Corporation's expectations or beliefs concerning, among other things: whether CANEX Metals Inc. will obtain a contempt order against the former directors of the Company; whether the Petition will be successful in setting aside the agreement with Helix; whether steps or proceedings against the former directors of the Company will recover losses the Company alleges it has suffered, and may continue to suffer, and recover the gains the Company alleges its former directors may have benefited from; and whether the new board will be able to address the current state of the Company and create value for stakeholders.

以军称已击毙一名参与“10·7”事件的哈马斯指挥官

(SeaPRwire) -   以色列国防军(IDF)声称击毙了一名参与10月7日事件的哈马斯指挥官。以色列国防军表示,在加沙地带的一次针对性打击中,哈马斯指挥官阿纳斯·穆罕默德·易卜拉欣·哈马德被击毙。该指挥官曾于10月7日潜入以色列境内并参与了位于诺瓦音乐节的屠杀事件。“以色列国防军于周一对加沙地带中心地区实施打击,击毙了隶属于‘努赫巴’部队的阿纳斯·穆罕默德·易卜拉欣·哈马德。此人系哈马斯恐怖组织的成员,在2023年10月7日的血腥屠杀中入侵以色列领土并袭击了诺瓦音乐节,”以色列国防军周二早晨在其X平台上发文称。以色列国防军指出,哈马德是“对以色列国防军在加沙地带行动的即时威胁”,并称其是在一次精确空袭中被“消灭”的。以色列国防军表示,其部队已“根据协议部署在该区域,并将继续行动以清除任何潜在威胁”。“努赫巴”在阿拉伯语中意为精英部队,它是哈马斯军事分支“卡桑旅”的特种部队。以色列国防军和“反极端主义计划”均表示,上述两个单位在10月7日的屠杀事件中发挥了重要作用。“卡桑旅”负责策划和执行此次袭击。据以色列国防军2024年8月发布的评估显示,在6,000名入侵以色列的恐怖分子中,超过3,800人是“努赫巴”战士。10月7日的袭击导致超过1,300名以色列人死亡,并引发了以色列在加沙地带的大规模军事行动。在此轮军事行动中,以色列国防军已击毙两名“卡桑旅”指挥官以及该组织领导层中的多名重要成员。2024年7月的一次针对性打击击毙了时任“卡桑旅”指挥官穆罕默德·戴夫。2025年5月,另一次空袭又将其继任者穆罕默德·辛瓦尔击毙。此次以色列对加沙地带的最新一轮空袭发生在特朗普总统斡旋达成的停火协议签署后不到七个月之际。以色列国防军指责哈马斯于2月份违反停火协议,利用救护车在加沙地带转运恐怖分子和武器。哈马斯也指控以色列频繁发动空袭,从而违反了停火协议。“特蕾西·英格斯特上周向国务卿马尔科·卢比奥提问,若哈马斯拒绝放下武器,是否意味着特朗普政府将支持以色列恢复在加沙地带的军事行动。”“我们希望可以避免出现这种局面。这不是我们期望的结果,”卢比奥告诉英格斯特。“我们希望的是,哈马斯能够解除武装,同时建立一个巴勒斯坦安全力量,并得到国际安全力量的协助,以确保加沙地带的安全。”Digital已向以色列国防军和白宫发出采访请求,但尚未收到回复。约纳特·弗里林为本报道做出了贡献。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

ATG Casino launches Fantasma Games titles in Sweden

(AsiaGameHub) -   ATG Casino has extended its partnership with EveryMatrix to introduce exclusive titles from Fantasma Games to players in Sweden’s regulated iGaming market. This collaboration builds on the existing agreement between the iGaming provider and ATG, which operates the Swedish online casino under AB Trav och Galopp, integrating a wide range of content through aggregation. The initiative is supported by EngageSuite Jackpots, a system offering ‘real-time, customisable in-game widgets that grow as jackpots increase’. Operators can set up four jackpots per game without altering base bets, while simulation tools help predict win frequencies. Jan Sonnevi, Head of Casino at ATG, commented: “Our partnership with EveryMatrix has enabled us to deliver high-quality content and innovative engagement features to our players. The success of these additions was evident in January, when one of our players achieved a record-breaking win.” Titles from Fantasma Games now available to ATG players in Sweden include Explosive Banana X, Thundra Hydra Coins Max, and Mission Coinplete. Image: SBC Media Carl Gatt Baldacchino, Account Management Casino at EveryMatrix, stated: “Expanding our partnership with ATG to include Fantasma Games titles was the logical next step.” “By integrating our aggregated and proprietary content with our premium jackpot solution, ATG will be able to offer a more engaging and unique experience to its players.” EveryMatrix’s expansion efforts are not limited to Europe; the company has also strengthened its presence in Africa through a new partnership with Betsson Africa. Last month, Matt Cowan, Commercial Director at EveryMatrix for Africa, shared insights with iGaming Expert on the growth of iGaming across the continent. He explained the shift toward online casino games and how operators can leverage evolving player habits. Cowan remarked: “Sports betting and Crash games remain dominant, but as players mature and seek more immersive experiences, the transition to slots is inevitable. It’s only a matter of time.” This article is provided by a third-party. AsiaGameHub (https://asiagamehub.com/) makes no warranties regarding its content.

阿尔伯塔分离主义者称已获得足够签名,可举行脱离加拿大的公投

(SeaPRwire) -   阿尔伯塔省的分离主义者宣布,他们目前已收集到足够的签名,足以触发该省脱离加拿大的公投。Stay Free Alberta 组织周一表示,他们已正式提交了近 30.2 万个签名,而触发该省考虑此类投票措施所需的签名数量为 17.8 万个。如果签名数量足够且经过核实,阿尔伯塔省省长 Danielle Smith 表示将推进相关程序,分离议题最早可能在 10 月份进入全省投票环节。“这对阿尔伯塔省的历史来说是重要的一天,”Stay Free Alberta 负责人 Mitch Sylvestre 周一抵达位于埃德蒙顿的 Elections Alberta 办公室时说道。他带领着一支由七辆卡车组成的车队前来递交名单。“这是迈向下一步的第一步——我们已经通过了第三轮,现在进入了斯坦利杯决赛。”据美联社(The Associated Press)报道,Smith 表示她个人不支持这个石油资源丰富的省份脱离加拿大,但她指责此前的联邦自由党政府出台的立法限制了阿尔伯塔省生产和出口石油的能力,称这导致该省损失了数十亿美元。她还指出,不希望联邦政府干预省级事务。周一,300 多名支持者聚集在埃德蒙顿,挥舞着省旗并高呼“阿尔伯塔强大”(Alberta strong)。“赞成”票并不会自动触发独立,因为这还需要与联邦政府进行谈判。蒙特利尔麦吉尔大学(McGill University)的政治学教授 Daniel Béland 对美联社表示,尽管存在独立诉求,但加拿大自由党总理 Mark Carney “确实很受欢迎,即使是在阿尔伯塔省也是如此”。“部分阿尔伯塔人推动独立的诉求早在他的总理任期之前就已存在,这与经济、财政和政治上的不满有关,即联邦政府对阿尔伯塔省似乎不公平的待遇,”Béland 说。“这些担忧在 Justin Trudeau 在任期间有所增加,但在他离任后已经达到顶峰甚至有所下降。”Béland 补充说,一些已经在利用法院阻止独立公投的原住民团体,将利用包括法院在内的各种渠道来阻止独立的发生。该公投请愿书本周可能面临障碍,因为埃德蒙顿的一名法官预计将对阿尔伯塔省原住民(Alberta First Nations)提出的法律挑战作出裁决,他们认为分离将违反条约权利。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

Cybersecurity in Gaming Summit to reconvene at SBC Summit Canada 2026, spotlighting AI and risk management

(AsiaGameHub) -   As AI broadens the attack surface and cyber threats become increasingly sophisticated, the gaming industry is under growing pressure to boost oversight and control mechanisms. The Cybersecurity in Gaming Summit will return in 2026 to tackle these challenges, with a focus on risk assessment, regulatory compliance, and operational resilience. Held on Wednesday, May 20, the summit is a component of the SBC Summit Canada 2026 conference agenda. Co-developed with the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG), it brings together cybersecurity leaders, legal and compliance experts, and industry specialists for an in-depth exploration of one of the sector’s most rapidly expanding areas of concern. In addition to identifying risks, the programme will examine how organizations can respond—from handling AI-powered threats to establishing governance frameworks that can withstand growing regulatory scrutiny. “Gaming operators manage large amounts of player data and financial transactions, which makes cybersecurity a key priority for the entire industry,” stated Graham Reed, Vice President of Cyber and Information Security at OLG. “Each time we advance with technology, the risks evolve alongside it. With AI, the current difference lies in the speed and scale of those threats. The question ‘are we moving quickly enough?’ is more crucial than ever. This summit is focused on ensuring Canadian operators are thinking about what comes next.” As the industry navigates these challenges, the summit will showcase prominent figures in AI and ethics, including Nell Watson—a philosopher, engineer, and author—who will participate in two sessions during the day. Watson has spent decades working in ethics, emerging technologies, and AI, holding leadership positions at the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the European Responsible Artificial Intelligence Office (EURAIO), and providing advice to organizations like Apple and Amazon. She is also the author of two AI-focused books and has spoken at institutions including the World Bank, the United Nations General Assembly, and the Royal Society. Watson will present a keynote on the “Leaders Stage” titled “The Agent in the Machine: Trust, Capability and the New AI Era,” which explores how agentic AI is transforming cybersecurity and pushing organizations to reevaluate trust and control. The session will also cover how operators can implement AI responsibly while upholding effective governance. Watson will also join the fireside chat “Bonus Level: An Interactive Conversation with Our Keynote”. Alongside OLG’s Graham Reed, she will respond to questions about agentic AI and strategy before opening the session to a live audience Q&A. The session “Cybersecurity in Gaming: Emerging Risks and Opportunities” will look at how cyber threats are becoming more automated, organized, and influenced by AI—including the growth of agentic systems. Experts Rick Carville (VP, Cybersecurity & CISO, Great Canadian Entertainment) and Bryan Pollitt (Associate Partner, Consulting, EY Canada), along with moderator Graham Reed (Vice President, Cyber & Information Security Office, OLG), will discuss the most significant pressure points, evolving attack methods, and ways organizations can enhance their resilience. “Mastering Agentic AI: The Playbook for Safe & Scalable Autonomy” will center on how agentic AI is changing organizational operations, necessitating a shift from risk management to building cross-organizational capabilities. Led by Graham Reed and moderated by Tom Nightingale (Editor, Canadian Gaming Business), the session will explore how to align cybersecurity, IT, and business teams to safely deploy autonomous systems. The panel “Proving Control: Compliance and Accountability in a Changing Risk Environment” will tackle how organizations can go beyond understanding risks to demonstrating control and accountability as new technologies develop. Graham Reed, Tony Wong (General Counsel, OLG), Karl Rempel (Senior Manager, Technology Regulation and Compliance, ACGO), and Danielle M. Bush (Senior Counsel, McCarthy Tétrault) will discuss strategies for building compliance frameworks that can adapt to regulatory changes and emerging technologies. “Cybersecurity is emerging as one of the key challenges facing the gaming industry,” noted Aidan Brain, VP of Conference Production at SBC. “Partnering with OLG lets us root this programme in real-world operational experience and focus on the risks organizations are facing right now.” OLG is a Crown agency responsible for overseeing lottery, casino, digital, and charitable gaming operations in Ontario, as well as supporting the province’s horse racing industry. Since 1975, OLG has contributed nearly $64 billion to the people and Province of Ontario, supporting critical priorities like healthcare, problem gambling treatment and prevention, and amateur sports. Its revenues also benefit host communities, Ontario First Nations, lottery retailers, and local charities throughout Ontario. All of OLG’s profits are reinvested into the province. SBC Summit Canada will be held from May 19–21 at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, gathering operators, suppliers, regulators, and affiliates at a critical juncture for the Canadian gaming industry—especially as Alberta progresses toward launching a regulated market that is expected to mirror Ontario’s model.

Adyton Reports High-Grade Interval at Gameta Development Project of 28.5g/t Au over 12.0m Including 226g/t Au over 1.0m, Fergusson Island, PNG

Brisbane, Australia, May 5, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Adyton Resources Corporation (TSXV: ADY) ("Adyton" or the "Company") is pleased to report the discovery of a new high-grade gold zone within the existing resource, from its 2025 infill drill program at the Gameta Gold development Project (50/50 JV), located on Fergusson Island in Papua New Guinea (PNG).The 2025 program included 4201 meters of largely infill drilling for a total of 36 diamond core holes. Drilling focused on areas within the existing deposit to better define and expand known mineralization. Prior to this drilling, the Gameta Project's Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) contained approximately 4.0 million tonnes (Mt) @ 1.33 g/t Au for 173 koz gold (indicated), and 10.5 Mt @ 1.01 g/t Au for 340 koz gold (inferred), within a conceptual open-pit shell.Hole GMDH009 returned 28.56 g/t Au over 12.0m starting from 146m downhole. This is the highest-grade intercept ever recorded by Adyton to date and highlights the presence of high-grade zones within the broader deposit. This result, along with other strong intercepts reported in this release, demonstrates the potential to enhance the overall grade of the planned open- pit at Gameta. These higher-grade zones could positively impact the upcoming Feasibility Study being advanced by Adyton and its JV partner EVIH.KEY HIGHLIGHTS Final assays from the 2025 infill drill program highlight the presence of locally high-grade zones at Gameta including the project's best intercept to date of 12m @28.56 g/t Au returning 342 g-m.Significant intercepts include:GMDH009 12m @ 28.56g/t Au from 146 m downholeGMDH008 13m @ 3.84g/t Au from 98 m downholeGMDH021 16m @ 2.2.07g/t Au from 51 m downholeGMDH010 6m @ 2.69g/t Au from 114 m downholeGMDH005 13m @ 1.88g/t Au from 49 m downholeGMDH013 13m @1.37g/t Au from 105 m downholeGMDH005 14m @1.05 g/t Au from 94 m downholeSeveral holes also intersected near surface mineralization with solid grades including hole GMDH001 with 9m @ 1.08g/t Au and hole GMDH002 6m @ 1.22g/t Au (see Table 1 below).These infill drill results have exceeded the Company's expectations and are expected to support an updated MRE, with several intersections returning grades above those reflected in the current model. The results may also support the conversion of a significant portion of the inferred resource to the indicated category."I am very pleased with these results, which have exceeded our expectations and highlight the strength of the Gameta Project," said Tim Crossley, Adyton CEO. "The project combines solid grades, near surface mineralisation, and favourable logistics, including access for barge transport to support envisioned development and concentrate shipment to end markets. We are now focused on advancing Gameta alongside the Wapolu Project, accelerating toward feasibility and permitting, with the goal of developing Gameta into a second production asset. Our vision for these projects is to unlock near-term cash flow through a disciplined Direct Ship concentrate strategy, while establishing a scalable foundation for long-term growth and value creation across the portfolio.""We are encouraged by the assay results at Gameta and, together with Adyton, plan to advance the project through MRE finalisation, Feasibility Studies, and permitting. Subject to permitting timelines, we are targeting a potential start of operations in the first half of 2028," said Gary Wang, EVIH CEO.Table 1: SIGNIFICANT INTERCEPTS, Gameta 2025 drilling 1To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/7416/295948_dce2c12474fa2a8b_001full.jpgFigure 1: Map view at Gameta showing 2025 drillhole locations against historical drilling and topographyTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/7416/295948_dce2c12474fa2a8b_002full.jpgFigure 2: Cross section looking northwest with significant drilling intercepts reported for GMDH009, GMDH010To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/7416/295948_dce2c12474fa2a8b_003full.jpgFigure 3: Cross section looking northwest with significant drilling intercepts reported for GMDH004, GMDH006, GMDH001, GMDH005, GMDH008, GMDH013To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/7416/295948_dce2c12474fa2a8b_004full.jpgTable 2 DRILL HOLE SUMMARYTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/7416/295948_dce2c12474fa2a8b_005full.jpgCATALYSTS & OUTLOOK1) Fergusson Island Project (PNG):Focused on advancing the Wapolu and Gameta deposits toward potential production and cash flow.

Ilkka Kosola Takes CFO Role in 2027 Gambling Makeover

(AsiaGameHub) -   Veikkaus has named Ilkka Kosola as its new Chief Financial Officer (CFO), with responsibilities that include supervising the regulatory overhaul of Finland’s gambling sector. Kosola will assume the position at the end of September 2026, becoming part of the executive leadership team to reshape Veikkaus prior to Finland’s shift to a multi-licence online gambling framework, set to launch at the beginning of next year. First launched in 2024, this regulatory reform will see the Finnish government roll back parts of the monopoly rights awarded to Veikkaus, meaning the firm will no longer act as the sole provider of online gambling services in Finland. His hiring is directly tied to Veikkaus’ 2030 strategy, which outlines the group’s goals to evolve into a more flexible, commercially competitive, and globally reputable operator. Core pillars of this strategy include stricter financial governance, enhanced capital efficiency, and the capacity to implement structural adjustments – all areas where Kosola is slated to take the lead. CEO Olli Sarekoski stressed the significance of this appointment. He stated: “Ilkka’s extensive, global experience leading finance and IT departments, paired with his demonstrated track record of delivering change and carrying out strategic deals, makes him an ideal match for Veikkaus as we steer through this era of major transformation. “We are certain that his expertise will be an enormous asset to our company and our executive leadership team as we progress toward our 2030 strategic objectives.” Kosola joins Veikkaus from Reaktor, where he held the post of Group CFO, and has previously occupied senior positions at Adven Group, TietoEVRY, Basware and Fortum. His professional background covers leading financial restructuring efforts, building digitally powered finance teams, and incorporating cutting-edge technologies like AI into financial workflows. Commenting on his new role, Kosola said: “I am excited to join the Veikkaus team and to be given the chance to contribute to the next stage of this well-known Finnish institution’s development. “Veikkaus stands at a critical juncture in its history, and I am keen to put my experience to use to support the company’s transition and the rollout of its new strategy amid the opening up of the licensing market.” The CFO appointment coincides with wider governance overhauls at Veikkaus, pointing to a planned restructuring of the operator’s leadership team in preparation for the upcoming regulatory changes. During its March 2026 Annual General Meeting, the company updated its Board of Directors, keeping Kaisa Olkkonen in the role of Chair while adding new members to boost its expertise in international business and transformation projects. Olkkonen remarked on the board update: “Our preparations for the new licensing framework and the introduction of competition in the Finnish market are progressing smoothly, and at the same time we are working toward our target of becoming a respected, successful international gambling group by 2030. “The Board has been enhanced with deep experience from firms that operate in global markets as well as those that have navigated complex transformation scenarios, which will greatly support Veikkaus as it continues its transition.” Combined, the changes at both the executive and board level highlight Veikkaus’ aim to align its governance, overall strategy and financial strategy – positioning the operator as a top brand before the new regulatory rules come into force. As Finland moves closer to implementing its multi-licence system, the operator is faced with the twofold challenge of upholding its public remit while demonstrating that it can compete effectively amid commercial pressures.

Stake launches in Mexico as its second market entry of 2026 prior to FIFA World Cup

(AsiaGameHub) -   Stake has launched in Mexico, just weeks ahead of the country hosting the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Stake already operates across Latin America, with established markets in Colombia and Peru. This latest launch marks its second market entry of 2026, coinciding with industry forecasts predicting significant growth in Mexico’s betting sector as the tournament approaches. The platform will be accessible via the stake.mx domain, offering Mexican players its globally recognized online casino and sportsbook products. A time of regulatory reform in Mexico The expansion takes place during a period of regulatory change in Mexico. Earlier this year, the Special Tax on Products and Services (IEPS) on bets increased from 30% to 50%, often referred to as a sin tax, while operators are also subject to a 30% corporate income tax (ISR). In addition, gambling advertising has faced stricter regulation in 2026, with proposals introduced to ban such advertising between 06:00 am and 10:30 pm. … but Stake still sees opportunity Despite these challenges, Stake remains confident about capitalizing on what it expects to be a major betting market surge this summer. Mexico has drawn attention from several betting brands aiming to expand in the region, with interest intensifying ahead of the World Cup. Carolina Diniz Flauzino, Business Development Manager at SOFTSWISS, recently commented on an SBC webinar: “I think Mexico is going to be the next up-and-coming country globally that will boom this year and in the next few years, especially as physical operators begin integrating with online casinos. “It’s particularly important given Mexico is co-hosting the World Cup this summer—this event is expected to bring substantial new exposure.” For Stake, Mexico presents key opportunities for commercial growth and brand development. In Mexico, the company operates under a permit-based system regulated by SEGOB (the Ministry of Interior), functioning as an agent under Uno Capali’s license agreement. While Stake has previously attracted regulatory scrutiny—including a UK ban following controversial advertising involving an adult actress near Nottingham Trent University—it continues to pursue global expansion. Recent milestones include a launch in Denmark, a partnership with Belgium’s football legend Eden Hazard, and profits exceeding £100 million, reflecting sustained upward momentum. Jarrod Febbraio, Stake Director, stated: “Mexico is a vital and exciting market for us—one characterized by strong growth potential and a deep cultural passion for sport, which aligns perfectly with Stake’s core mission. We have built significant traction across Latin America in recent years, including in Peru and Colombia, and Mexico represents a logical next step due to its size and long-term prospects. With Mexico set to co-host the 2026 FIFA World Cup, this timely launch enables us to establish a robust presence ahead of one of the world’s largest sporting events and deliver a top-tier experience to Mexican players.” This article is provided by a third-party.
