Kobetron, LLC announced that it has acquired the assets of Gaming Informatics (GI), which includes the IRIS software suite.
The Gaming Informatics software suite allows casinos and regulators to track the inventory of electronic gaming equipment throughout the casino property, whether the equipment is on the floor or offline. This transaction combines Kobetron, the leading specialized gaming verification tools company, with GI, the leading enterprise-resource planning software company.
As part of the transaction, it was announced that Grant Stousland, president and CEO of Gaming Informatics, will remain in a strategic leadership and business development role with Kobetron overseeing the ongoing sales, support and product development of the GI line of products.
“This transaction solidifies the future of IRIS,” Stousland said, “placing it into the hands of a company that can continue to support and develop the product beyond today.” Kobetron, which recently debuted Verify+ by Kobetron, the leading multi-purpose signature tool in the gaming industry, announced that it will provide IRIS, the industry-leading ERP system with respect to the managing of the regulatory needs of the casino floor, with expanded capital and resources to provide scale throughout the casino industry.
“In addition to the acquisition of GI’s technology and tools, I am pleased to welcome Grant, a highly respected gaming industry veteran, to the Kobetron team,” said Kobetron founder Greg Kobe. “We are equally passionate and committed to supporting all those who have purchased or will purchase the GI software and tools going forward.”
