Events 26 maltatoday, SUNDAY, 1 MARCH 2015 As from 1st March onwards Voda- fone is changing the way it charges for mobile data by slashing the price of data to only €2 for every 100 meg- abytes – this is 80% cheaper than any other rates available on the is- land! 'Relax' is the name being given to this new charging system. This is the first local pricing solution that offers you complete peace of mind. It allows you to use the In- ternet on your mobile without con- stantly worrying about exceeding your limit since Vodafone will now charge only€2 for every 100 MB of mobile data that is used above the limit specified in your Pay Monthly plan. With Relax you will also be in full control over how much mobile data you are using since you will be notified via sms every time you use 500MB. This new rate will be automatical- ly implemented and means that you can now do so much more with mo- bile data for far less than you ever spent before. For example, accord- ing to the UK-based site RECOM- BU, a100MB of mobile data allows you to browse 360 web pages, read and reply to around 400 emails and watch eight three-minute Youtube videos. With Vodafone there is now no longer any reason to hold back from being online anytime and any- where. For more information, visit www. vodafone.com.mt/relax.

The Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) par- ticipated in the annual ICE Gaming Expo 2015, which was held between 3 and 5 February, 2015, at the London Excel Expo Centre. The MGA was represented by a team of staff members who manned the stand and provided information about Malta's regulatory framework to all those visiting the stand. The MGA's Executive Chairman also re- ceived The Gaming Intelligence Award af- ter being listed as one of the Hot 50 2015 Backstage Heroes, just 15 months into his role as the Regulator of Malta's gaming in- dustry. Gaming Intelligence described Mr Cuschieri as follows, "He has had a huge impact since being appointed as Executive Chairman in 2013. He has impressed both employees and licensees in equal measure. "Some of his key achievements included cutting licensing time and player support time by 50%. He has instituted the Respon- sible Gaming Foundation and is set to fol- low that with a new Gaming Academy. He is hell bent on making the regulator the very best it can be on every single level." The MGA's stand, which was prominent- ly set on two-levels, featured the Author- ity's new logo and brand. Around 550 com- panies from 60 countries displayed their products and future innovations at ICE 2015, in an event which attracts thousands of people from all over the world. GSD Marketing Ltd employees from different departments took part in the Malta Marathon 2015 on Sunday February 22, joining a record number of participants aiming for the finish line after ei- ther the full 42-kilometre mara- thon or the 21-kilometre half marathon in aid of Inspire. GSD Marketing Ltd, local agents for Powerade in Malta, are an official partner of the mara- thon and set up two stations, one in Pieta' and another one at the finish line in Sliema, from where athletes could grab a Powerade to replenish their strength levels during and after the run. Powerade ION4 isotonic sports drink is best suited for those who compete in endurance events. It helps athletes to perform at their best for longer. Powerade ION4 isotonic sports drink con- tains both sodium, which is lost in sweat, and carbohydrates. In combination, these help the body absorb fluid more effec- tively from the stomach into the bloodstream. Because Powerade ION4 is isotonic, it's balanced with body fluids and absorbed at an optimal rate. "Powerade is a product of The Coca-Cola Company, which is always at the forefront to support sport events and promote an ac- tive lifestyle," said GSD Market- ing and Sales Manager Martin Agius. "It is part of our product's phi- losophy to support these athletes with the drink they need to keep going till the very end," he said.
