The day has come! Between 17 and 23 November, the European Safer Gambling Week, organised by the European Gaming and Betting Association (EGBA), will take place alongside Safer Gambling Week in the UK and Ireland.
Together, we will share and exchange industry best practices and participate in discussions on developments in regulation and research. Most importantly, we will promote player protection across the industry through the prominent display of safer gambling messages in marketing materials and during sporting events.
Mattias Wedar, LeoVegas Group CEO, said: “We are very happy to be collaborating with field experts and world-leading sports brands throughout the week to promote these important initiatives. Safer gambling is a topic that should always be at the top of the agenda. iGaming is a great source of entertainment, but it’s important to gamble responsibly and make use of all the tools available.”
To raise awareness about the importance of responsible and safer gambling, we will feature safer gambling messages across our marketing in the UK and Ireland. Most notably, we will replace our logo on Tottenham Hotspur Football Club’s training kit with the Safer Gambling Week logo. Football fans will also see safer gambling messages displayed on LEDs during the Newcastle United Football Club and Wolves matches. Moreover, our race titles during the Arena Racing Company’s All-Weather Championships will be renamed to names such as “Set Deposit Limits at BetMGM” and “Take Time Out During #SGWeek25!”.
LeoVegas Group Director of Player Sustainability, Maris Catania, will also feature in several sessions with leading experts on safer gambling, that are open to the public. Don’t miss the chance to expand your knowledge on these important topics!
