Lucien (Lucas) Wijsman

With over 35 years of experience, I help casinos deliver better service, stronger results, and happier players.

Through my three companies, I offer a unique combination of training, Advisory & Mystery Guest Audits and Industry Conferences.

Most clients don’t just choose one — they combine them. Training makes advice more effective, audits uncover insights, and COS brings the entire industry together.

ONE PARTNER. THREE SERVICES. PROVEN RESULTS.

“At the crossroads of consultancy, training, and industry networking, I help casino operators and suppliers achieve excellence.”

Through FleXpeQt, the Electronic Gaming Academy (EGA), and the Casino Operations Summit (COS), I deliver tailored advice, operational audits, training programs, and one of the industry’s leading Land-based Casino conferences.

What makes my approach unique is the combination of services: most clients don’t just “consume” one. An audit becomes more effective when combined with training, and advice is only actionable if management understands the concepts. Together, these services create measurable improvements in operations, customer experience, and profitability.

SOME HISTORY

About me

Since starting at Holland Casino in 1987, I have built a career of more than 35 years in land-based casino operations, consultancy, and training. Today, I operate three companies: FleXpeQt, the Electronic Gaming Academy (EGA), and the Casino Operations Summit (COS) serving clients on four continents.

I have worked with some of the world’s leading operators, including SBM Monte Carlo, PARX Casino (USA), SUN International (South Africa), Olympic Entertainment Group, Casinos Austria, and Grupo COMAR, among many many others.

As a trainer, consultant, and conference organizer, I am recognized for my edutainment style: simplifying complex concepts, engaging audiences, and making knowledge stick. My passion is helping casinos adapt to changing player expectations and achieve sustainable success.
