ECA’s new partnership to strengthen the European gaming market
The European Casino Association (ECA) has announced a new partnership aimed at strengthening the European gaming market.
The ECA Strategic Supplier Partnership, launched at the ECA Casino Industry Forum in Slovenia, will facilitate closer cooperation between the ECA and key industry players, including Aristocrat, IGT, Light & Wonder, and Novomatic. These four suppliers have become the first members of this initiative, which is designed to boost collaboration between operators, suppliers, and policymakers.
The goal of the partnership is to motivate positive changes in the gaming industry by promoting responsible gambling practices, improving equipment standardization, advancing security measures, and combating illegal gambling. The partnership will also allow the professionals to network and share their knowledge with each other, enabling them to address mutual challenges and opportunities.
Erwin van Lambaart, chair, ECA, said:
“This collaboration allows us to share diverse perspectives and work towards solutions that benefit the entire gaming community while respecting the distinct roles of operators and suppliers.”
ECA monitors the gaming market
Earlier, ECA announced another partnership with American and European partner companies AGA and BGC to combat gambling challenges. Scheduled to take place in January 2025, it will bring together industry leaders, regulators, and law enforcement officials.
