There will be an enhanced focus on player protection at next year’s ICE London event, with a host of responsible gambling stakeholders set to join the exhibit.
The event at the ExCel London will include 20 stands at the Consumer Protection Zone (CPZ), up from 14 last year, including the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC).
With the Gambling Act review still underway, the White Paper on the legislative overhaul apparently due next year, and regulators becoming increasingly vigilant to player protection shortcomings, responsibility has taken on heavier importance for many industry stakeholders.
Ewa Bakun, Clarion Gaming’s Director of Industry Insight and Engagement, said: “The CPZ, which was recognised by the industry at the recent Global Regulatory Awards, where it won the Responsible Approach to Advertising/Marketing category, is one of the many success stories to have originated at ICE.”
