Franceis the second major continental market to regulate the online gaming market following Italy.

Mr. Constantinos Antonopoulos, INTRALOT Group CEO, stated: “The online license that INTRALOT was granted in France is a very important step towards the implementation of our plans to capitalise on the major opportunity represented by the growth of the regulated European online gaming sector. With a population of 65 million and a strong tradition in the lottery and gaming industries, France will play a pivotal role for INTRALOT Interactive in the new era of regulated online gaming. We are looking forward to bringing our pioneering services and products, as well as exciting entertainment experiences to the French market.”
