Play’n GO will take centre stage at the G7 Leaders Summit in Calgary this week. The company is the only gaming supplier invited to join the inaugural Global Forum on Responsible Gaming and Gambling Policy. This marks the beginning of a notable global policy initiative. Play’n GO will also participate in similar forums at the G20 Summit and the United Nations General Assembly later this year.
These events aim to build international frameworks for safer gambling and industry growth. The company’s involvement highlights its role in shaping future gambling regulations. It reinforces Play’n GO’s position as an advocate for responsible gaming and consumer protection.
A Seat at the Global Table
Shawn Fluharty, Head of Government Affairs at Play’n GO, will lead a session on the opening day of the G7 forum on June 13. He will speak alongside global leaders, regulators, and public health experts on the link between gambling, mental health, and the importance of early regulation.
The session aims to spark conversations resulting in formal recommendations that will later be shared with global policymakers. Play’n GO’s presence at the G7 shows how the gaming industry can contribute to wider public health and innovation strategies. It is also a sign that top authorities are recognising to bring industry voices to the table.
Responsible Gaming in Action
This invitation follows Play’n GO’s recent move to cut ties with sweepstakes casinos. The company has publicly committed to never supplying its content portfolio to these platforms, further supporting its mission to promote fair gaming environments.
Fluharty emphasised the company’s vision in a statement. “Positioning responsible gaming at the world’s premier policy forums is vital, Play’n GO is proud to lead this conversation at the G7, G20, and UN. We’re showing that early collaboration with lawmakers is key to building global standards,” he said.
By participating in these forums, Play’n GO contributes positively to the future of digital entertainment. It is also supporting policy frameworks with a balance of innovation and consumer protection.
A New Era of Global Engagement
After the G7 forum, Play’n GO will continue its work at the G20 and the United Nations. The final outcomes will feed into global policies on youth protection, public health, and digital innovation. This initiative shows a growing demand for corporate accountability in gaming.
With this global policy push, Play’n GO is proving that entertainment and responsibility can go hand in hand. The future of gaming will be shaped by industry stakeholders who act early and Play’n GO is leading the way.
