Independent testing laboratory eCogra Monday announced the opening of a new office in Denver, Colo., and the appointment of Daniel Remmes as its U.S. director of compliance.
The U.K. company stated that the decision to expand into the United States was based on increased demand for its services due to the rapid growth of the igaming in North America.
The Colorado office will serve as a hub for eCogra’s operations in the U.S., supporting clients with services including software testing, random number generator evaluations, cybersecurity assessments, and regulatory compliance reviews.
