well-orchestrated symphony.

DALLAS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Theatro, pioneers of the world’s first voice-controlled mobile app
platform for the hourly workforce and Konami Gaming, Inc. a leading

conversational computing platform and Konami’s industry leading, fully
integrated, casino management system SYNKROS® to seamlessly interact
with one another. This leading edge integration enables incredibly
elevated and differentiated customer service experiences on the casino

casino management system
synchronizes entire facility operations,
improving Casino operations that enables client acquisition, ensures
loyal patron retention, and makes Casino businesses more profitable.

greeting, service or offers that surprise and delight.

“The gaming industry is rapidly evolving,” said Chris Todd, CEO,
Theatro. “Technology is accelerating at lightning speed to deliver more
