With the changes coming by April, the 4th edition of the Prague Gaming Summit will provide an opportunity for operators to hear more about the changes and what is to come in Greece in the future. Attendees should plan to listen in on the panel discussion titled Market Rundown: Ukraine, Poland and Greece to learn more.

Regulation Changes:

New regulations for the country were blocked for many years by the refusal of the region to follow EU laws. The Greek Ministry of Finance finally decided to accept the rules of the commission in December of last year, which led the way for new gambling reforms.
