iGaming content supplier Play’n GO is set to take a key role in international gambling policy discussions as it joins world leaders at the G7 Leaders Summit this week in Calgary.
The company is participating in the first-ever Global Forum on Responsible Gaming and Gambling Policy, a new initiative launched alongside the G7. This is the first of three international events, with Play’n GO also set to join the G20 Summit and the United Nations General Assembly later this year.
Shawn Fluharty, Play’n GO’s Head of Government Affairs, will lead a key session on the opening day of the G7 forum, scheduled for June 13. He is expected to engage directly with global policymakers, regulators, neuroscientists, and public health experts on critical issues at the intersection of gambling, mental health, and regulatory policy.
Play’n GO is the only online supplier invited to the forum, highlighting its commitment to responsible gaming and global regulatory leadership.
“Positioning responsible gaming at the world’s premier policy forums is vital to ensuring regulation keeps pace with rapid innovation and effectively protects consumers,” said Fluharty.
“As the only online supplier engaging directly at the G7 Forum on Responsible Gaming and Gambling Policy, and soon at the G20 Summit and United Nations General Assembly, Play’n GO’s presence will showcase the critical value of early collaboration with lawmakers and regulators in forging cohesive, global standards,” he continued.
The result of the three meetings will be recommendations that will be formally presented through policy channels, helping to define the next generation of international policy on public health, youth protection, and innovation.
Play’n GO has been a vocal advocate for increased regulation in the online gaming space for many years, recently announcing it will never supply its content portfolio to sweepstakes casinos.
