In April 2023, Endeavour invested $3 million in esports company Fortress.[4]
In August 2023, the Victorian Gambling and Casino Control Commission fined Australian Leisure and Hospitality Group $550,000 after finding the company had ran 220 gaming machines across 62 venues in the state without installing the mandatory harm reduction technology YourPlay.[5]
