GameAccount Network opens new North American Office – Tripling Staff Capacity for New Customer Service Team
ISE: GAME LSE: GAME
London & Dublin | September 2, 2015: GameAccount Network plc, an award-winning developer and supplier of enterprise-level B2B internet gaming software, services and online gaming content in the United States, has opened its state of the art North American Headquarters in Las Vegas, Nevada. The new space is over three times larger than the former campus, and is scalable to support the expanding game publishing and U.S. market dedicated end-user customer services. The office expansion within Las Vegas was aligned with the personal relocation of CEO Dermot Smurfit and his family from the company’s headquarters in London.
The high-tech space will offer an online-to-offline showroom facility serving as a powerful demonstration venue for casino operators interested in the GameAccount’s innovative and market-leading Simulated Gaming™ enterprise solutions designed for land-based North American casinos.
GameAccount’s innovative online-to-offline showroom is also designed to support strengthening relationships with an increasing number of third party gaming content vendors currently integrated with GameAccount, many of whom are also based in Las Vegas. This new space also allows GameAccount to demonstrate to other potential U.S. based gaming content vendors the expanding world of both Simulated Gaming and regulated real money Internet gaming.
Dermot Smurfit, CEO of GameAccount Network commented:
“Opening a long term office facility in the glittering heart of the casino Industry matches our company’s long-stated ambition to enable America’s casinos to move online and extend their valued patron relationships into the online environment. We look forward to hosting our commercial and Tribal partners in the new space to more intimately explore all of the exciting road-mapped innovations that we’ll soon be bringing to life on our Simulated Gaming and Real Money Gaming partner’s sites.”
Located just west of the Las Vegas strip in Summerlin, the new facility will enable GameAccount to centralize US operations across the commercial, operational, business development, and customer services teams. The move also marks the strong commitment of GameAccount to the North American marketplace, with the belief that Simulated Gaming and the supporting services around the product will be a material business line both for GameAccount and licensed operators- regardless of the regulatory landscape for Real Money Gaming in the US ahead.
