Gaming Laboratories International (GLI) is expanding its testing and certification capabilities with the acquisition of gaming testing lab Trisigma.

Trisigma will continue to operate its network of testing laboratories independently while coordinating its efforts with GLI’s larger sales, operations, and back-office staff globally.

Following the acquisition, Esther Ballart will continue to lead and manage Trisigma’s offices in Geldermalsen, Netherlands, and Barcelona, Spain.

“Trisigma will continue to carry the Trisigma brand and continue to operate as it has for the past 14 years, now bolstered by the strength of GLI’s global network,” said GLI president and CEO James Maida. “We are pleased that Esther Ballart will continue as managing director, and that all Trisigma teams will continue to operate and be licensed in the jurisdictions in which they work.

“My thanks to Rob Hubregtse and Frank Otte for their years of excellent leadership and service to Trisigma.”

Trisigma co-founder Frank Otte commented: “Trisigma achieved an excellent position in the world of gaming testing in the last 14 years since Rob and I founded the company. We enjoyed the leadership, the people, the customer relations, and we are proud that Trisigma can access the next level with accelerated growth and strengthening its position worldwide.

“While Trisigma has achieved great success independently over the past many years, with the GLI Group’s support, we are confident that growth will be enhanced and thereby benefit our people and customers.”
