The regulated Dutch iGaming market is scheduled to open on 1 January 2021. From 1 July 2020 – just over six months out – the Netherlands Gambling Authority will start processing license applications from interested operators. Now is the time to get ready.
In order to keep interested parties fully informed of what is to come, Gaming in Holland will organize a FREE breakfast briefing on Tuesday, December 17 in Amsterdam.
As an added bonus, the GiH Breakfast Briefing will take place shortly after the General Consultation on gambling policy in the Dutch Lower House on November 27.

RegTech Workshop
The Breakfast Briefing will be followed by a workshop on technological innovations to facilitate regulatory compliance.
The RegTech workshop will feature sessions on player risk assessment through self-testing – as mandated by the Remote Gaming Act’s secondary legislation – as well as comprehensive and effective ID verification, which will be included in the Netherlands Gambling Authority’s prioritization criteria from January 1 onward.
The entire workshop will last ca. 75 minutes.

The GiH Breakfast Briefing will take place on December 17 at CIRCL, a new pavilion in Amsterdam's Zuidas district that was constructed by ABN AMRO according to sustainable and circular principles.
CIRCL is only a one-minute walk away from the WTC Zuid train station and easy to reach by public transport.
