The Genting Group's membership in the GSA is represented by eGENTING, its technology arm.

GSA President Peter DeRaedt said, "We are thrilled by eGENTING's decision to upgrade to Platinum membership. GSA has been able to advance and accomplish our goals because of our unique cooperation between operators and manufacturers, working together to create a better gaming industry around the world. eGENTING is a proven leader, and we are excited about the potential standards will bring to the Asia Pacific region."

Derrik Khoo Sin Huat, Chief Operating Officer at eGENTING, has joined the GSA Board of Directors and is excited at the potential growth for standards in the Asia marketplace. "The Genting Group has upgraded its membership to Platinum status because it strongly believes that open standards will be good for the gaming industry as a whole. They should pave the way for more technical innovation, creativity and excellence. The availability and conformity to standards will, over time, lead to greater choice, faster time- to-market for new solutions and a lower cost-of-ownership for the business. Ultimately, this should improve the experience for our customers."
