The recession could have a positive impact upon the way the gaming industry operates, Oliver Lofthouse, director and general manager of IGT-UK Gaming WagerWorks, told InterGaming.
"I think the industry is feeling the effects of it and constantly we’re challenging ourselves in terms of cost base, our effectiveness and the way we deploy our resources," Lofthouse said. "I do think we are resilient as an industry; certainly the online side of the industry is even more resilient and therefore, as a result, we’re still seeing quite strong revenue growth within this sector of the business."
Lofthouse said that despite the difficult times, there are still opportunities in the market and many companies are still finding their place within the industry.
