But this pan­demic period cannot be compared to anything else, because it has reper­cussions not only at the business level, but also at the social, hu­man level… That is why the shareholders have made efforts to continue the long-term development plans and last but not least, to be able to maintain stability and good morale for every member within the Stanleybet team”.
