PRESS RELEASE

Former NCR VOYIX Strategic Partnership Lead Jim Yantis Joins the ABACUS Solutions International Group as Head of Strategy and Retail Engagement

LONDON, U.K. (September 3, 2024) – ABACUS Solutions International Group (ABACUS) is pleased to announce it is strengthening its position in the Lottery industry by executing a consulting services contract with Jim Yantis who recently left NCR VOYIX after nearly thirty years of service.

Jim was the Executive Director of Strategic Partnerships at NCR VOYIX for the last four years where he got to know the Abacus team working closely on the Lottery Solution for NCR’s next generation Point of Sale Solutions.  In that time Jim became a champion of this new direction for both lottery and retail.  He brings with him over 30 years of retail software and Point of Sale experience with NCR.

Jim said “I'm thrilled to partner with the Abacus team as they build on their success in Europe and expand into North America. The Abacus lottery platform empowers retailers to offer consumers an improved lottery experience at a much lower cost. With my extensive background in retail technology, I’m confident that once consumers experience the convenience of purchasing lottery tickets at traditional or self-checkout lanes, it will quickly become their preferred method. Retailers are constantly searching for new innovation at the retail level. The Abacus solution provides that innovation and I look forward to using my background and relationships within the retail industry to help deliver this vision into retail stores globally.”

Simon Butler, CEO of ABACUS, said: “We are delighted Jim is joining us. He is a great addition to the team and will contribute hugely to the growth of the business. His market expertise will be an invaluable and formidable combination with our lottery team”.
