Gaming Innovation Group is closely monitoring the progress of the coronavirus outbreak and considering contingency measures to reduce the risk for its staff and to ensure business continuity.
Last week, GiG successfully deployed its business contingency plan, with all systems and operations performing well. GiG operates from various offices in several countries and local measures have been taken based on the recommendations from the various authorities.
GiG has a robust plan to ensure continuity of operations and working from home is an integral part of the day-to-day operations and it also forms an integral part of the plan. Proactive steps were taken at the end of last week to advise employees to work from home prior to any announcements by governments.
As part of the plan all changes to production environments will require an extra level of approval to protect both the company’s and the customers' businesses even more. GiG is an agile company, remote development and operational teams are part of day-to-day operations and will continue to work business as usual.
Casino operations have not been affected by the turmoil and daily net gaming revenues in March are in line with January and February for both the company's own B2C operations, B2B platform clients and for media services.
Richard Brown, CEO of GiG, comments: “Our focus is on protecting our employees and our customers, as well as securing a stable continuation of service to our partners. Board and management are continuously monitoring the situation and further measures will be taken if necessary to protect employees, customers and shareholder value through these turbulent times.
"In these times of turmoil GiG has so far proven that our technology is robust, staff agile and that there is an increased demand for our services across different verticals.”
