After the resounding success under the motto “Black is Back” at ICE, NOVOMATIC will participate at the upcoming GAT Cartagena Expo under the slogan “The Future is bright”. This year’s edition of the show will be most prominently marked by the Latin American launch of the NOVOVISION™ Casino Management System: With this powerful system, NOVOMATIC introduces biometric technologies and unprecedented functionalities for the modernisation of the region’s gaming venues.
NOVOMATIC celebrated its return to the annual trade fair calendar with a very successful return to ICE, delighting its customers and partners with an exceptional stand and a wide range of solutions, including the extensive “Black Edition” product range. Moving on to the upcoming trade shows, GAT Cartagena arrives on March 29th and 30th at the Las Américas Convention Center located in the Caribbean coastal city of Cartagena de Indias. In this setting, NOVOMATIC will wow the gaming industry with a wide variety of products and with the Latin American launch of its revolutionary NOVOVISION™ Casino Management System.
The NOVOVISION™ casino management system goes far beyond the traditional Accounting, Jackpots, Player Tracking, CASHLESS and TITO functionalities offered to casino providers. This highly competitive solution takes all areas of the business to another level while bringing a fresh, modern feel to the gaming floor with the incorporation of biometric technologies. Its modular design facilitates customisation and allows full flexibility to respond to all kinds of operator requirements and legal obligations.
Worldwide, more than 40,000 gaming machines, 3,000 betting terminals and 1,300 ATMs are already running on this comprehensive software package, and the numbers are increasing. The performance and excellence of the NOVOVISION™ system has also convinced the industry’s top experts and was awarded the “Best CMS/Software Product” category at the recent European Casino Awards in London.
“The NOVOMATIC Colombia team is proud to bring to the country a casino management tool that surpasses all technologies currently in use,” says Manuel Del Sol, Managing Director of NOVOMATIC Colombia. “NOVOVISION™ will captivate our customers and will undoubtedly set a new standard in the Colombian industry. We invite everyone to get to know it and be dazzled by this tool. There is nothing like it in Colombia”.
The NOVOMATIC stand A24 at GAT Cartagena will simulate a real casino operation by connecting the gaming equipment exhibits to the NOVOVISION™ system. Visitors will be able to learn about the power and large scope of its functionalities, including those related to automation, analysis and optimisation of floor performance, as well as experience its various access solutions based on biometric technologies.
