First of all, Elys is an exciting organisation with a fresh approach and new technology that is filling a unique position within the market. The company has a proven and successful NUMBERS iGaming solution combined with a sound technology stack. More specifically, Elys has been operating in the sports betting and online competitive betting and gaming markets for several years. The product’s value proposition is what I define a “true cross-channel” offering, which not only allows the retail and digital/mobile channels to co-exist, as any typical model $9.7m of mobile and retail solution would, but it also allows the two models to interact and Q3 revenue work seamlessly together in more advanced ways. For example, you can go to a retail for Elys Game location and decide to top-up your digital account through either a manned terminal Technology or a self-service kiosk; choosing to use any payment method, even cash, without having (formerly Newgioco to jump through the hoops typically involved in this type of transaction. Such a model Group), a 44% is currently in use and distributed across thousands of retailers in Italy. This offering rise year-on-year construct, combined with a state-of-the-art sports betting platform, capable of operating in any regulated market and scalable but flexible at the same time, makes Elys’ a powerful gaming offering in the North American market. I am particularly impressed with the Elys team’s familiarity with the opportunities here in the US and of the progressive legalisation of many jurisdictions. Today, we see only a third of the potential market open and there is still a lot of expected growth – the news that Canada is also embracing a modern sports betting model further increases the size AU£56.2m of the addressable market we can cover. The price BetMakers Given the current competitive landscape and demand, I believe there is a place for Technology Group the Elys product equation to be a B2B2C player in the North American digital gaming announced as a binding agreement market. In fact, our go-to-market approach is to combine the Elys Game innovative tech to acquire solution with the B2C capabilities we honed working in Italy, one of the most competitive Sportech’s global markets in the world. We are offering a complete turnkey solution: Elys can be a Tote and digital one-stop-shop provider or, by leveraging our micro-services architecture, can be an business ($41.3m) iGaming and betting technology vendor to be integrated in third-party solutions. In this initial phase we can best serve mid-size operators, yet we have the clear capabilities to address large operators with multiple locations. We are focused on retail to start and then eventually mobile, passing through mobile on-premise; this is a unique model: we want to leverage this as a growth asset in the North American market. Given Elys Game Technology’s organic business in Italy, our organic growth Mid-2021 opportunity in Europe and the great fit for our business model here in the US, I see very solid foundations. So far, the team and the current leadership did a great job laying that When Caesars Entertainment plans foundation. My previous gaming experiences allow me to bring additional value to the close the deal to organization and the investors by moving the company to the next level. Incidentally, I’m sell Belle of Baton personally both a US and Italian citizen. I know the European gaming market and I have Rouge to CQ Holding spent the last 10 years working here in the US. It’s a unique alignment of the stars given Company (Casino the phase Elys is going through! Queen) What were the biggest lessons you learned at IGT and Sportradar to prepare you for the role? The biggest experience I gained at IGT is how to operate within a heavily regulated market locally as well as globally. IGT is both a gaming and lottery operator. My experience there allowed me to deal with the various regulated markets across the globe, not only those in the US. Market regulations have tremendous implications in AU$30,000 the way you design, build and market your product. The experience I gained has helped me understand how the regulated market competes, what products are needed The fi ne issued and the intricate business dynamics. At the same time, I had the opportunity to be a to Tabcorp by Sydney’s Downing part of a global company with thousands of employees. At one point, I was managing Centre Local Court, development teams in six different time zones, between Asia, North America, Europe and after being found Eastern Europe. I spent a lot of time turning around the business by aligning the product guilty of breaching portfolio, which resulted from a number of inorganic acquisitions, into a singular value New South proposition. That knowledge is something I can bring to Elys, because we see inorganic Wales gambling advertising law acquisitions as a way to grow over the coming years. (US$22,000) On the other side, Sportradar gave me a deeper view on two important aspects of the sports betting business. The first aspect is the relevance and importance of data. In particular, how official data is going to be extremely important in the evolution of 50% the sports betting offering in the US. The second aspect is the influential nature of the intersection of media and sports betting. The two verticals are not separate and they YOY fall in Spanish GGR for January- will morph into a different model here in the US than what we see in Europe. In Europe, October 2020, sports betting is very much a form of gambling full stop. In the US, sports betting will according to a evolve more and more as a form of entertainment simply due to the enormous amount study by Cejuego of sports content that is consumed in this country every day. and the University Additionally, there is a different sports betting ecosystem. In Europe, betting is Carlos III of Madrid, amounting to centred around soccer/football. In the US, you have American football, baseball, hockey, €4.4bn ($5.3bn) basketball and more, all available at professional and college levels – that diversity, combined with the influence of the leagues and interest of the media, will evolve the gaming offering into a new combination of content and betting. It’s not a surprise to see so many media companies get involved in the sector – look at Penn National with BarStool, theScore media, Yahoo with BetMGM, Bally’s have also just closed a deal with Sinclair, Fox Bet and so on. 1/4 What are your aims and goals as Elys Game Technology CEO? This is where things get really exciting and I look forward to our Q4 results; our Q3 How much Norsk Tipping has lowered was very strong and reflects the current shift into the online business. What was very monthly loss limits important is that we passed the mark of 100,000 gaming accounts in Italy. The digital for what it defi nes business is growing strong, helped by the COVID-19 at-home economy. And we are as high-risk games thrilled to have started rolling out several projects here in the US. for December and As I said, our foundation is very strong. We have an excellent team in Europe. I want January to replicate and build an equivalent high-performing team here in the US – that is one key priority. A strong team will be instrumental for the company to take advantage of the North American addressable market. I think we have the opportunity to significantly increase our financial performance by executing a few basic things very well. The market is there, a need for newer solutions exists and Elys Game Technology is here to deliver.

  • Chapter 6 Crisis Communication
    The Independent Investigation Commission on the Japanese Government’s Response to COVID-19: Report on Best Practices and Lessons Learned Part III Best practices and challenges Chapter 6 Crisis communication The most effective message to encourage “self-restraint” and response to public anxiety, discontent and criticism The “analysis and recommendations” released April 1 by the government’s Expert Meeting on the Novel Coronavirus Disease Control cited a change in citizens’ behavior as a key component of the “Japan model” to combat the COVID-19 pandemic. A key to the efforts to fight the novel coronavirus were the messages released by the government to prompt people at large to change their behavior to reduce the infection risk, such as voluntary restraint on nonurgent outings and avoiding the “Three Cs” (closed spaces, crowded places and close-contact settings). What also became important was for the government, in order to prevent confusion among citizens and seek their cooperation with countermeasures for the disease, to explain the situation to address public anxiety, discontent and criticism, such as by accounting for the poor access to PCR tests for the virus, and to send out messages for resolving the problems. In this chapter, we define these two as “crisis communication.” Several research and data indicate that the messages sent out via the government’s news conferences and other channels contributed to a change in citizens’ behavior, thus reducing the effective reproduction number of novel coronavirus infections, but that public evaluation of the government’s news conferences and messages was not necessarily positive. Based on such an analysis, this chapter tries to explore the messages that contributed to people’s behavioral change (best practice) and the factors that lowered public evaluation of the government’s news conferences and messages (challenges).

  • From the Desk of the Consul-General
    From the Desk of the Consul-General Consul-General Dr. Kazayuki Katayama September 2013-August 2015 The Consulate-General of Japan in Detroit Detroit, MI August 2015 From the Desk of Consul General of Japan in Detroit (Preface) I have served for nearly two years as the Consul General of Japan, in my jurisdiction of both Michigan and Ohio, from September, 2013 to August, 2015. I focused on the promotion of economics, politics, culture, public relations education and consular affairs, as well as the expansion of person-to-person exchanges in various areas between Japan and the 2 states. The consulate opened in 1993 and I am the 10th Consul General. During my term, I often visited local governments, companies, universities and colleges, Japanese weekend schools, branches of the Japan-America Society and the Japanese associations in various parts of the 2 states in order to foster the understanding of Japan’s policies, including its foreign policy, among the Americans here. I traveled to Ohio 66 times and Michigan (beyond Metro Detroit) 45 times. I visited universities/colleges 43 times, companies 24 times and Japanese weekend schools 14 times. I recited approximately 110 speeches and lecture and invited guests to my residence, to serve them Japanese food and Sake, about 200 times. My goals in participating in these activities were twofold. First, I aimed to convince Americans that Japan is a trustworthy and strong partner to the U.S. Second, I earnestly set out to provide quality services to local Japanese residence and portray the Consulate General as both conscientious and dependable.

Proceedings Conference-Roundtable—Coronavirus and International Affairs: Event Summary Description and Concept Note Coalition for Peace & Ethics Prepared by Larry Catá Backer This Section of the Proceedings is divided into two sections. Section 1 includes a short Conference-Roundtable description as it was prepared immediately before the event. Section 2 includes the more detailed Concept Note. Both were prepared by Parry Catá Backer for the Coalition for Peace & Ethics. 156 Emancipating the Mind (2020)15(2) (Special Issue) Larry Catá Backer for CPE Description and Concept Note 1. Conference-Roundtable Description The emergence of a new strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, one of a more lethal strain of a class of virus that cause disease in humans, has had a profound effect on virtually all aspects of human activity. As of 2 April 2020, worldwide 900,306 cases have been confirmed 45, 693 COVID-19 related deaths have been reported in 206 countries by the World Health Organization.1 But even those numbers are contested. For the same period through 28 February 2020, Worldometer reported 51,703 deaths of 1,007,103 confirmed cases.2 The pandemic appears in every corner of the world. While the medical and health implications of COVID-19 are profound and tragic, the effects of the disease on governance, law, and international affairs will likely be even more significant and long lasting. As states, institutions, and individuals respond to the challenges, always contextually unique, all of the structures of the contemporary world have come under stress, and principally the structures and normative frameworks of globalization.
