Company Novomatic is commemorating 40 years of successful operations
Novomatic, a world leader in the field of gambling technology that operates in our country under the brands “AdmiralClub” and “AdmiralBet”, is this year marking 40 years of successful operations. This anniversary represents the result of the dedicated and responsible work of all employees of this company, but also excellent cooperation and trust built with numerous business partners.
As a company, Novomatic continuously sets high goals for itself, not only when it comes to expanding its business, but also in the segment of corporate social responsibility, which is a strategic commitment of the company. In accordance with that, company founder Professor Johann Graf and the board of directors donated, during the height of the pandemic, 10 million dinars to Serbia for the fight against this coronavirus outbreak. These donations came in the form of respirators and medical equipment sent to the National Health Insurance Fund and KBC Kragujevac. What is also important is the fact that Novomatic retained all its employees, around 1,300 of them, and their jobs are safe, which is undoubtedly the biggest help to the country, which is still awaited by the struggle to handle the economic consequences of the coronavirus crisis.
