The Fourth Annual Ethical Gambling Forum: A Focus on Sustainability, Accountability, and Culture in Gambling Industry

The highly anticipated Fourth Annual Ethical Gambling Forum will take place in Gibraltar aboard the Sunborn Yacht Hotel on April 29-30, 2025. This year’s conference promises to be an exciting and thought-provoking two-day event centered on the critical themes of Sustainability, Accountability, and Culture. Under the theme of “Why ESG Really Matters”, the forum aims to put safer gambling at the heart of what it means to be an ethical operator in the evolving gambling landscape.
With the increased importance of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices across industries, many companies have already started reporting on ESG using the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). The forum goes beyond traditional reporting methods to inspire more intuitive actions, helping operators to incorporate ethical and responsible measures into their daily operations in 2025 and beyond. From workplace culture to staff recruitment, duty of care, and collaboration, this year’s event will explore a comprehensive range of essential topics.
Key Themes of the 2025 Forum Include:
- Why Sustainability is Paramount: Understanding the role of sustainability in the gambling sector.
- How to Be an Ethical Operator: Moving beyond compliance to true ethical responsibility.
- Collaboration is Key: Exploring the need for seamless collaboration between services to create a safer environment for all.
- Lived Experience in Gambling: The importance of amplifying the voices of those affected by gambling.
- Education, Education, Education: Addressing the critical need for continuous education in ethical gambling practices.
- Why Good Governance Matters: Understanding the significance of governance measures such as AML, SARs, and Regulatory policies.
- Why ESG is the New Bottom Line: Discussing how ESG initiatives shape financial performance and the future of the industry.
Delegates attending the forum will have the opportunity to hear from a stellar line-up of industry leaders, C-level executives, regulators, safer gambling teams, HR professionals, and other experts. Through practical advice, case studies, and open discussions, participants will gain insights into how operators can take action to build a more responsible, ethical, and sustainable gambling industry.
Attendees will also have the chance to engage in discussions and share their perspectives on the most pressing issues facing the gambling industry today.
Join us for this exciting event and be part of shaping the future of ethical gambling.
