EGT’s jackpot Bell Link has established itself as an absolute bestseller in Panama. The four-level solution is already installed and is successfully operating in a number of reputable casinos in the country such as Royal Marriott, Star Bay, Cirsa, Codere, Sortis, Golden Lion.
It is housed in slot cabinets of the latest General Series of the company: G 32-32 VIP, G 27-27 St, and G 50 J2 St. Powered by Exciter III and Exciter IV platforms, they caught the attention with their contemporary design with frameless HD displays providing exceptional visual clarity and many ergonomic features and quickly ranked among the players’ favorite gaming machines.
“We are very proud that Bell Link has achieved such a great success in Panama,” commented Yana Mihaleva, Director at EGT Central America and the Caribbean. “The performance it has been demonstrating so far is excellent. The combination of the selection of one of the most popular EGT’s titles, included in the Bell Link 1 multigame, with the numerous opportunities of winnings and bonuses makes the jackpot a preferred choice everywhere it is present. I want to express my immense gratitude to our long-term partners who once again have trusted us and have supplied their gaming establishments with our jackpot allowing it to unfold its enormous potential. I’m happy to say that very soon Corporation BBT will also join the operators offering our jackpot solution to their customers. I believe that the positive trend will continue and Bell Link will keep on being among the products of ours which arouse the greatest interest and for which we will accomplish the biggest number of installations by the end of this year.”

Continent 8 Technologies expands with strategic sales professionals focusing on South/Central American markets
Sebastian Fernandez and Luana Monje join the global digital infrastructure provider to drive further strategic efforts in the region
Continent 8 Technologies continues to grow its global commercial team following the appointment of Sebastian Fernandez and Luana Monje as Sales Executives.
Sebastian will be based out of Buenos Aires in Argentina and joins Continent 8 from IT giant Dell Technologies, where he spent more than 12 years across several roles including a Senior Systems Engineer and most recently Account Executive.
Luana comes to Continent 8 from AWS (Amazon Web Services) where she held the role of Demand Generation Representative. Based in Sao Paulo, Brazil, she has a deep understanding of the region which has just passed legislation to legalise online sports betting and casino.
Both Sebastian and Luana will be responsible for nurturing relationships with Continent 8’s existing Latin American customers, helping them to maximise the potential of its solutions and services from cloud hosting and connectivity to layered cybersecurity.
They will also support new customers looking to make a move in the region, particularly Brazil which is expected to generate approximately $2.6bn per year (gross gaming revenue) by 2026 according to KPMG. Continent 8 will be live in Brazil to support customers with its full suite of solutions in the coming months.
Brian Koh, Chief Commercial Officer at Continent 8 Technologies, said: “I would like to extend a very warm welcome to Sebastian and Luana who join Continent 8 at a pivotal time for the LATAM gambling market.
“Latin America is a thriving market with a lot of latent potential, something that the opening of Brazil will help to unlock. We are well positioned to help customers looking to launch into this market, and Luana will undoubtedly play a significant role in ensuring they go live with the best infrastructure and security in place.”
Sebastian Fernandez, Sales Executive at Continent 8 Technologies, added: “I’m excited to be joining the Continent 8 team and to bring over a decade of IT experience to this role. This is an incredibly exciting region with huge potential on the table, but organisations must have the right infrastructure in place if they are to maximise the opportunity. This is something that Continent 8 is renowned for, and we look forward to working with businesses across the region.”
Luana Monje, Sales Executive at Continent 8 Technologies, added: “I couldn’t ask for a better start to the year. I look forward to sharing my AWS expertise and knowledge of the LatAm market with the team and of course our customers.”
