News Quixant SBC interview: LatAm Market success is contingent on a proactive and engaging approach A multipronged, localised and targeted approach is what will ultimately lead to favourable outcomes across a number of Latin American jurisdictions for Quixant, says Patricia Souto Rial, VP of Business Development for Spain/LatAm. As a plethora of opportunities in the region lie in wait, the industry sits primed to take advantage as these future developments come to fruition. One of the many organisations looking to maximise this potential is Quixant, which has set the course for long-term growth and success. In conversation with SBC News, Souto Rial addresses where the company sees potential, what will ultimately be the keys for success, how Quixant will enable its customers’ success, and places a significant emphasis on the Brazilian gaming ecosystem. SBC News: Latin America has been a focal point for the industry for quite some time, but recent developments have ramped this up. What is Quixant’s current position within the region? Patricia Souto Rial: The Latin American market presents a crucial growth opportunity for Quixant. There is significant potential to be unlocked from 2025, and beyond. Despite the complexities of navigating a fragmented legal landscape across the different regions, the projected gross gaming revenue for the gaming market is expected to reach $8.8bn by 2028 according to data from H2 Gambling, which opens up new and great opportunities that we cannot ignore. Quixant’s team has been strategically focused on developing a comprehensive suite of products, offering dedicated turnkey gaming software solutions, and providing detailed customer support, all specifically tailored to meet the unique demands of the Latin American market. SBCN: How do you plan to enhance this through the next year and beyond? Which specific countries are Quixant [...]

News G3 Quixant podcast: Market trends and opportunities and the road to ICE Barcelona Tune in to the latest Pulse podcast, where Quixant’s VP of Business Development, EMEA , Leo Bateman, joins G3’s Managing Director, Lewis Pek. Together, they discuss market trends, key opportunities, and Quixant’s upcoming hardware and software innovations set to debut at the ICE Barcelona exhibition. With a new ICE show location in Barcelona, how is Quixant preparing for this year’s exhibition?
 Though we expect all our major customers to attend, I think Barcelona will introduce a slightly different ICE audience than previous years. European gaming tends to gather wherever the opportunity lies, and my view is that there’s been more enthusiasm across EMEA for Barcelona compared to London. For many exhibitors, the location offers logistical advantages for importing and exporting goods and has a refreshing appeal after taking place for many years in London. For Quixant, ICE is a cornerstone event. We continue in our focused efforts around the show, with a global team of gaming experts attending, including hardware and software specialist and representatives from the UK, US, Italy and Taiwan. Visitors can expect Quixant’s hallmark innovations in PC hardware, exciting software developments, and fully finished gaming cabinets. We will showcase solutions spanning the full spectrum from hardware platforms, software features, all the way to complete machines. What can visitors expect at the Quixant booth, and what do you have planned for EMEA customers?
 We are pushing forward with the same level of presence as the previous ICE London and G2E shows —the two leading gaming exhibitions worldwide. While the footprint remains the same, the way we display our products continues to evolve to enhance both intuitiveness and accessibility. Whilst historically the spotlight has been on our range [...]

News G3 Quixant podcast: Reflections on ICE, the launch of the IQ 2 and predictions for 2024 Hear from Quixant’s Abhinay Bhagavatula, EVP, CTO and Global Manufacturing Leader and G3’s Managing Director Lewis Pek in the latest Pulse podcast. We've just said goodbye to the final ICE London show. What was your overall impression of the show? We saw a huge turnout at this year's event, both from visitors and the 600+ exhibitors showcasing over 1,000 product launches. Just from a number’s perspective, it was enormous. We had a very busy three days with a lot of new enquiries, new connections, innovative discussions and further insights. What I saw personally was a lot of interest from online and sports betting companies displaying very creative solutions, with conversations focused on improving player engagement. It is always a positive step when companies in the gaming industry put the player at the core of the gaming experience. And I think from a lab-based perspective, it is great to see a wider range of products targeting a larger demographic space. It has also been very encouraging that we are seeing more product entering the market than we have seen in the last couple of years. Overall, there were a lot of positives to take from this year's ICE London show. At the show, Quixant launched its new IQ2 product. What were the key elements that excited visitors at ICE? Quixant offer three ranges of products, IQ, IQON and QMAX. IQ is our cost-effective entry-level product range. At ICE last year we launched our QMAX 3 product followed by our IQON 2 product at G2E this October passed. So, we were excited to launch our IQ 2 at ICE, and I can share that it was a [...]

News G3 Quixant podcast: The launch of the IQ 2 for cost-sensitive markets and 2024 outlook Ahead of unveiling our latest product range at ICE London 2024, Duncan Faithfull, Chief Commercial Officer at Quixant, describes the benefits of the new Intel-based IQ 2 platform, which delivers great power, performance and functionality, at an accessible price point. Quixant has a headliner this year at ICE. You're about to launch your new Intel-based IQ 2. What's special and why are visitors going to be excited to get their hands on the new platform? Quxiant offers three distinct product families; the high-end Intel-based QMAX range launched at ICE 2023; at G2E 2023, we launched the mid-range IQON; and now the IQ 2 is launching at ICE London to fully complete and complement the IQ family set. At ICE London visitors will experience the full suite of products from Quixant which are available with both AMD and Intel options. We are proud of our relationship built with Intel. It has been a year of hard work integrating Intel products onto our platforms, but this means we are now leveraging the 12th generation Alder Lake processors, which is exciting because it delivers great power, performance and functionality, at an accessible price point. The driving principle behind the Quixant product family is making sure that whatever your requirements cost wise, we will always deliver the ultimate power, the ultimate performance, and the ultimate ability to show your games in the best light possible. ICE London is an opportunity for our customers to explore the range and talk to us about what they are trying to achieve with their games in 2024. The launch of IQ 2 gives us the opportunity to offer an Intel platform at whatever price point [...]

News Abhinay Bhagavatula G3 Pulse Podcast: Reflection on G2E, the launch of the Intel based IQON 2 and what to expect from Quixant in 2024 Abhinay, what were your views and impressions of the recent G2E Las Vegas expo? G2E 2023 was once again a truly global event. At this year’s expo we were able to spend a lot of time with industry suppliers and customers, not just within the US, but from international markets. We met with visitors from the Philippines to London to Hong Kong and Bulgaria, among many others. I think this brought back the charm of G2E. It was also a very busy show this year, both from a visitor and exhibitor standpoint. Additionally, on the expo floor we saw manufacturers prioritising hardware and software from the perspective of the player. The player has always been at the core of this industry and both on the exhibition and casino floors in Las Vegas, we saw that products had become bigger, brighter and bolder. Payment systems, cashless solutions, digital wallets, and slot integration within the omnichannel experience was front and centre at this year’s show. So, I’d say my key takeaway from G2E 2023 was of an industry that is once again pushing the boundaries of innovation. Having taken the pulse of the US market whilst at G2E, what's your view of the North American market right now? How is it performing and how is Quixant capitalising on growth state side? Market movement has been very interesting. From both keynotes and speaking to industry experts at the show, there’s been a shift in macroeconomic trends in the global gaming industry, and the numbers have been staggering. Maintaining the momentum from last year, we have seen how operators benefited from [...]
