Kalman Menyhart was an international football player, three-time Hungarian champion, coach, manager, entrepreneur, and innovator whose vision extended far beyond the world of sports.

Throughout his career, he pursued new ways to combine competition, entertainment, and audience participation. Drawing upon decades of experience in professional athletics, leadership, and international business, he developed original concepts designed to bring people together through skill, strategy, and engagement.

As a player, coach, and manager, he worked with athletes and professionals across Europe, South America and the United States, gaining valuable insight into both the competitive and business sides of sport. These experiences inspired a lifelong commitment to innovation and creative thinking.

His work became the foundation of IFCOKEMA and its portfolio of intellectual property, representing years of research, imagination, and development. Among his most ambitious creations were Casino Innovation and World Competition, concepts that reflected his belief that competition and entertainment could be combined in entirely new ways.

Today, his vision continues through the preservation, development, and future licensing of the concepts he created, ensuring that his ideas remain available for future generations to explore and build upon.
