Time: 09:00 - 17:00
Address: ARA Palác, Perlová 5, 110 00 Prague

This year’s edition of the International Conference on Gambling will once again provide a platform for open discussion on gambling regulation, current legislation, and market developments. As in previous years, it will connect the Czech environment with international experience and bring to Prague experts who will offer new perspectives on challenges shared across different jurisdictions.

The second day will be followed by the conference Prague as the Heart of Responsible Gambling, focusing in particular on social responsibility, prevention, and tools for safer gambling, with a strong emphasis on the protection of vulnerable groups of players.

Consumer protection, with a particular focus on vulnerable groups of players, will be the connecting theme of both conference days.

Together, the two conferences will address key current topics such as match-fixing, illegal gambling and its enforcement, digital addiction, and education.

This year’s edition is also symbolic for us. It marks the 5th conference we have organised, and at the same time the Responsible Gambling project celebrates its 5th anniversary.

The Institute for Gambling Regulation (IPRH) is a neutral expert platform that connects stakeholders of the legal gambling market, public administration, academic institutions, addiction specialists, psychologists, counselling centres, and other helping professions into one functional ecosystem. It brings together 95% of the licensed market in the Czech Republic and has been operating since 2018 as a communication bridge between the state, the professional community, and the legal market. It does not replace professional associations nor represent the individual commercial interests of specific companies. Its aim is to promote rules that protect players, limit the illegal market, and are effective in practice.

The Responsible Gambling Project is a self-regulatory initiative of gambling operators that effectively complements the existing strict regulation. Instead of blanket bans that restrict players without problems, we believe in early identification and offering help to those who truly need it. Self-regulation within Responsible Gambling includes a commitment by operators to comply obligations that go beyond legal requirements, focusing on strengthening player protection, prevention, employee training, and responsible marketing and advertising. Together, we are working on the development of a unified software solution that identifies at-risk players and can be applied across the entire market.
