Apogee partners Apex

Apex showcased its new Pinnacle Premium SL and the Pinnacle Premium Curved at ICE in London earlier this month and “took the show by storm,” said a company spokesperson.

Asked about the initial feedback from operators in North America, Jean-Louis “JL” Drapeau, the general manager of Apogee Gaming, said: “Operators here have told me time and again how happy they are that Apex Gaming is placing great focus on supporting them here.

“We have a lot of work to do, operators are looking for new solutions and the Pinnacle slots together with the Evo gaming platform as well as Dragon-Egg-Island solution have been received very well. The interest in the iDrop has been amazing. This product really makes a difference. The fact that it won two awards in the US and several in Europe last year, the year it was introduced, shows how innovative it is.”

Kubilay Özer, (pictured) global sales director at Apex, said: “We have found the perfect partner in JL. He has over 20 years of experience in the gaming industry and he is the key for opening doors for us. These are very exciting times for us”.
