OUR HISTORY

The legacy of innovation started in 1958, when Malcolm Steinberg founded Leisure & Allied Industries (LAI Group) in Perth, Western Australia. LAI Group was an early pioneer of the Family Entertainment Centre (FEC) concept, founding the Timezone brand of FECs in 1978.

In the 1990s,  the LAI Group expanded into additional services: developing a cashless business management system that became Embed; a full range of amusement machines that became LAI Games. These businesses form the core of Helix Leisure today.

Further milestones along the way have included:

1998: Matahari Leisure was established in Indonesia to deliver manufacturing capability for LAI Games in the growing Asian markets.

2013: The Locker Network was established offering best-in-class electronic locker storage solutions to entertainment operators globally.

2014: Helix Leisure was created, merging Embed, LAI Games and The Locker Network into a single operating company.

2017: Helix Leisure’s acquisition of Booking Boss solidified its technology backbone across its entire enterprise, extending into Saas (Software as a Service) cloud-based business solutions that integrate and manage every aspect of the Family Entertainment and Attractions business.

2022: Launch of our first direct-to consumer VR title:  Arcade Legend, an authentic arcade experience featuring officially licensed games, that lets players build, manage and socialise in their own entertainment venue.
