Weike Gaming Technology, Singapore’s only domestically-based gaming equipment manufacturer, has been drafted in to advise the city-state’s government on how to develop the fledgling casino industry.
Weike was certified in April as an Approved Manufacturer and Approved Supplier of gaming machines and gaming equipment by Singapore’s Casino Regulatory Authority (CRA). Less well known is that for the past 18 months the company has also been a member of the Singapore Accreditation Council, helping to draw up standards for gaming testing laboratories wishing to operate within the jurisdiction.
As a Singapore business, Weike also qualified for financial support from SPRING Singapore, the city’s enterprise development agency.
“Singapore’s standards for gaming regulation and for accreditation as an approved supplier are probably the most exacting in the world. But if a company follows the rules, then Singapore plays fair in return,” says David Kinsman, Weike’s CEO.
“Weike—both as a recipient of government support and as an advisory partner to the Accreditation Council—is very honoured to have been singled out for special mention as a SPRING Singapore success story.”
