In the 1980s, the company went public and began its international expansion. Over the decades, IGT built a reputation for quality, reliability, and creativity-attributes that have made them a dominant force in the industry.<\/span><\/p>\n

In 2015, IGT merged with the Italian gaming company GTECH, creating a new entity under the name International Game Technology PLC. Today, the company is headquartered in the UK and operates in over 100 countries.<\/span><\/p>\n
