LONDON
, Nov. 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Brightstar Lottery PLC (NYSE: BRSL) (“Brightstar”) announced today the release of its 2024 Sustainability Report, showcasing the Company’s continued commitment to global sustainability under its new pure-play lottery brand.
“The 2024 Brightstar Lottery Sustainability Report highlights our ongoing mission to advance lotteries by delivering insights-driven, future ready solutions that bolster our customers, inspire their players, and contribute to a sustainable future,” said Vince Sadusky, Brightstar CEO. “Along with the evolution of our business, our sustainability strategy was enhanced to focus on our most important stakeholders. This strategy serves as the foundation of our 18th annual report, demonstrating how we are Empowering Our People, Collaborating with Partners and Preserving the Planet.”
Brightstar’s new sustainability strategy is guided by three key elements: Empowering Our People, Collaborating with Partners, and Preserving the Planet. These elements are activated through six spheres of impact, which are dedicated actions that ignite change, including employee engagement, human rights, responsible gaming, community engagement, sustainable procurement, and climate action, biodiversity, and circularity.
Sample highlights of the 2024 report, aligned with Brightstar’s three elements of sustainability, include:
