This holiday season, our team came together in the beautiful city of Prague to celebrate in style! We enjoyed a fantastic party at the historic Fantova Building and took a memorable ride on an incredible steam train. But that's not all… we also took on a 10-day step challenge and raised €8,425 for Wings for Life - Spinal Cord Research Foundation, a charity we support also as the global partner of the Wings for Life World Run. Our dedicated staff collectively walked over 4.4 million steps! A huge thank you to everyone who participated and made this holiday season so special. Here's to more amazing moments and achievements in the coming year! #Allwyn #WhereWeAllWin

Today we published our Q3 2024 preliminary unaudited financial results. We achieved Total Revenue of €2,143 million, +7% YoY, and Adjusted EBITDA of €411 million, an increase of 12% YoY. Across geographies, the digital channel continued to be a key driver of revenue growth, while the physical retail channel also performed well in the quarter. Robert Chvatal, Allwyn CEO, commented: “I am pleased to report another quarter of good progress and financial performance. We delivered strong top-line growth, with standout performance in Greece and Cyprus, and once again achieved solid profitability and cash flow generation. “Total Revenue increased 7% year-on-year, with the continuing growth of the digital channel, our ongoing efforts in product development, and our focus on bringing best-in-class content to customers being the key drivers.” “Overall, I am pleased with our continued progress and believe we are well-placed for the remainder of 2024 and the next chapters of our growth story.” Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/e5meY7QS

Why is it important to put player protection at the heart of digital environments? That was the question Allwyn’s Head of Responsible Gaming, Nicole Garrett, and a panel of experts discussed at a recent event hosted by Brussels media house Euractiv. “Building a safer digital environment – Protecting consumers in the EU" explored what the EU’s forthcoming Digital Fairness Act will mean for consumers, industry and legislators, how strict national regulation of the lottery industry interacts with EU-level legislation, and how new technologies and AI further enhance protections and empower consumers online.

Over the course of three inspiring weeks last month, The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts welcomed visitors to the Dvořák Dreams exhibition, each eager to experience the intersection of culture and technological innovation. It was a privilege to witness such a diverse and engaged audience exploring Refik Anadol's groundbreaking work. The enthusiastic response to the exhibition highlights the importance of supporting the 0xCollection’s mission to publicly showcase pioneering digital art—a role Allwyn is proud to have played by helping make this innovative piece accessible to a U.S. audience. #Allwyn #0xCollection #DvořákDreams #KennedyCenter #whereweallwin

Bridging the cultural institutions of the past with emerging technology of the present to help realise the future of art, renowned artist Refik Anadol continues to push the boundaries of creativity.    We spoke to the Refik about the role he believes digital art plays in the world, his source of artistic inspiration, and how he brought to life the pioneering Dvořák Dreams installation that Allwyn was proud to have supported as it debuted in the United States last month.    #Allwyn #0xCollection #DvořákDreams #KennedyCenter #whereweallwin
