Aristocrat Gaming CEO Hector Fernandez emphasizes the importance of digital opportunities and protecting intellectual property. The company recently won a copyright infringement case against competitor Light & Wonder over their game “Dragon Train.” Shares of casino gamemakers, including Aristocrat, have outperformed casino operators this year, with Aristocrat’s shares up 41%.

Fernandez highlights the focus on digital opportunities as part of the company’s strategy, noting the growth of online casino gambling, or iGaming, in the United States.
