Introduction

The 2016 edition of the Gaming in Holland Conference concluded today in sunny Amsterdam. The main message of this year’s speakers, which included Holland Casino CEO Erwin van Lambaart and Dutch Gaming Authority CEO Marja Appelman, was that Dutch Parliament should make haste with regard to debating the long-awaited remote gaming bill.

Other major topics of conversation included the privatization of state-owned Holland Casino, the (future) funding of sports and charities in the Netherlands, as well as responsible gaming. In case you were unable to attend, this recap revisits these topics in great detail below.
