Loteria Mineira authorizes Intralot, Thorsborg and IGT/SG to continue in PMI

The Loteria Mineira (LEMG) made public the results of the companies authorized to present studies, data and projects to obtain the concession that allows them to operate the Conventional Lottery and the Lottery of Numbers, Individual and Immediate Draw (Instant). Intralot, Thorsborg and the IGT / Scientific Games consortium were considered suitable according to what was requested in the Notice of Procedure for Expression of Interest (PMI) opened in March.

The preparation and presentation of feasibility studies, surveys, investigations, data, technical information, projects or opinions must comply with the terms of item 7 of the Notice: To be delivered within 45 (forty-five) days from the publication of this authorization, and may be extended, at LEMG's discretion, upon reasoning.

Intralot's subsidiary, Intralot Brasil, started operating in 2010 with Loteria Mineira with the launch of its first game, Keno Minas. Then the partnership gave rise to new games: Multplix, Minas 5, Totolot, Totogol and Speed Race. All of them are available in more than 2,500 lottery terminals located in several points of sale in the State of Minas Gerais. The distributed prize is one of the reasons that explains the good performance of the games. Of the total collected, at least 60% goes to prizes.

For their part, Internacional Gaming Technology (IGT) and Scientific Games (SG) presented themselves as an association of interested parties without formal ties. It is worth remembering that both companies, two of the most important in the world lottery market, already form the Estrela consortium in Brazil, which obtained in October 2019 the concession to operate LOTEX (Instant Lottery). This process is still on hold and without definition as the companies threatened to withdraw if Caixa did not negotiate sharing its points of sale (lottery chain).

Thorsborg Institute, LLC is a private consulting firm founded to be a global resource for the development of international trade for public and private sector organizations. The clientele includes multinational companies, international development agencies, NGOs, governments, financial institutions and more than 500 private companies in 100 countries, including Brazil. Global strategic consulting includes analysis of proprietary services for the lottery, sports betting, and gaming industry. Captain Kip Peterson, CEO of Thorsborg Institute LLC, started nineteen lotteries worldwide and assisted dozens of others in organizational, structural and improvement processes.

The application of the company Am & Fpa Comércio de Equipment and Computer Programs Ltda, CPNJ 40.217.712 / 0001-81, was rejected, as it did not fully comply with the documentation delivery requirements provided for in item 4 of the PMI LEMG Notice No. 001 / 2021. The curious thing is that this company was founded in December last year by the former Secretary of Valuation, Planning, Energy and Lottery of the Special Secretariat of Finance of the Ministry of Economy, Alexandre Manoel da Silva, who resigned from office in March 2020.
