Organizer
The primary objective of the IFGR activities is to work together with public authorities in the field of gambling to strive for a unified, conceptual, and modern development of gambling regulation in the Czech Republic. Equally important in our work is the long-term contribution to increasing social responsibility and reducing risks associated with gambling.
The Responsible Gambling Project is a self-regulatory project of gambling operators, which complements the current strict regulation appropriately. Instead of blanket bans that restrict problem-free players, we believe in early identification and offering help to those who truly need it. The self-regulation within Responsible Gambling involves the commitment of operators to adhere to 29 specific obligations beyond the legal requirements, focusing on strengthening player protection, prevention, employee education, and responsible marketing and advertising. Together, we are working on developing a unified software solution that identifies at-risk players and can be applied across the market.
