Commenting on this opportunity to bring fresh insight to another important gambling market in Europe, Gaming in Europe Founder Willem van Oort wrapped up:

"I am extremely pleased that we managed to bring all these experts together. If you are interested in the Finnish market and would like to personally meet with local stakeholders, the Gaming in Finland Evening Conference @ICE is undoubtedly the place to do it. I think Finland is going to be an exciting market and I am happy that – here, too – Gaming in Europe can play a role in creating important connections between domestic and international stakeholders."
