The Meridianbet Group, a premier force in sports betting and igaming, marked a pivotal moment on April 19 as it joined the Nasdaq Capital Market (Nasdaq CM) under the Golden Matrix Group Inc. (Nasdaq: GMGI) banner.
The Opening Bell Ceremony at Nasdaq MarketSite in New York Times Square featured key executives from both companies and symbolized the beginning of a new era for expanded market reach and global strategic opportunities.
This significant event follows the recent acquisition of MeridianBet Group by Golden Matrix Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: GMGI), further solidifying their integration within the global market.
The transaction between Meridianbet and Golden matched not only their operations but also their strategic visions, reshaping the igaming and sports betting industry in the following years. MeridianBet was founded in 2001 and currently operates across 15 jurisdictions.
“This is a defining moment for both entities,” stated Brian Goodman, CEO of Golden Matrix. “Leveraging MeridianBet’s impressive market presence, technology and expertise and our advanced diversified offerings, we are set to redefine industry standards globally.”
“Joining the Nasdaq as part of Golden Matrix will scale our operations significantly,” noted Zoran Milosevic, CEO of MeridianBet. “We are excited about the increased market visibility and the opportunities to expand even further into new territories. This partnership will leverage our combined strengths, focusing on innovation and profitability.
Operational synergies and future growth
The combined entity is now poised to be one of globally leading proprietary technology and gaming platforms, already known for their high-margin, asset-light business model. The integration will particularly underline competitive advantages, supporting over 650 third-party casino brands and millions of registered retail and online customers worldwide. The Nasdaq listing means greater efficiency and a stronger platform from which to launch further expansions and innovations.
The team behind success and impact
Both companies remain dedicated to their teams and communities, recognizing the efforts of over 1,000 staff members who have been integral to their success. “A heartfelt thank you to everyone who has contributed to this journey,” Milosevic expressed. “Your dedication has been key to our growth and will continue to be vital as we set new records and deliver significant shareholder value.”

With the GLI-19 and Brazil certification process successfully concluded in March, Blitzcrown has solidified its position as an industry pioneer in this dynamic and emerging market.
Crash games are a recent addition to the global iGaming market, featuring the dynamic evolution of real-time multipliers and immediate reward structures. Blitzcrown has stood out by establishing groundbreaking game mechanisms that offer different and exciting gameplay experiences. Standard Crash provides players with a standard multiplier-based gaming experience, and Fast Crash is optimized for users seeking quick, intense multiplier experiences. The Twin Crash is an original format allowing players to place simultaneous bets on two separate multipliers.
Building on this momentum, Blitzcrown has announced plans to expand its certified portfolio with two additional versions of its innovative Plinko games, demonstrating the company’s strategic commitment to market expansion. This forward-looking initiative underscores Blitzcrown’s dedication to continuous innovation and sustainable growth in the regulated gaming markets.
Blitzcrown is MVG’s edge-game studio focused on pushing game ideas beyond their norms through innovative and non-traditional gaming experiences. The studio has been particularly recognized for its groundbreaking approaches in various game categories, including its successful Crash and Plinko series.

Workers at Caesars Southern Indiana Casino Authorize Strike

More than 140 workers at Caesars Southern Indiana Hotel & Casino, represented by Teamsters Local 89 and Operating Engineers Local 399, have voted by a 98% margin to authorize a strike. The overwhelming vote is a direct response to management’s refusal to offer a fair contract.
“Our members are united and ready to fight for the strongest possible agreement. This vote sends a clear message — we will not back down. If management won’t negotiate in good faith, we’re prepared to take action,” said Avral Thompson, President of Local 89.
Caesars Southern Indiana, owned and operated by the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians (EBCI), pulled in more than $240 million in revenue last year, making it one of the most profitable casinos in the state. Workers are demanding a contract that reflects their essential contributions to that success.
“I’ve worked at Caesars for over seven years, and we deserve a contract that values our hard work and dedication. No one wants to strike, but if management keeps disrespecting us at the bargaining table, we’re ready to demand what we’ve earned,” said Sandra Ramirez, a slot attendant at Caesars Southern Indiana and a member of Local 89.
After months of negotiations, management at Caesars Southern Indiana continues to refuse to offer fair retirement benefits and remains far apart on other key economic issues.
“At this point, the ball is entirely in management’s court. If Caesars faces a strike, management will have no one to blame but themselves for the fallout. We stand ready to back our members every step of the way,” said Teamsters General Secretary-Treasurer Fred Zuckerman.
