Intralot has been awarded a renewable online sports betting licence by ARJEL in France for five years.
Intralot France will focus on opportunities in online sports betting, exploiting in particular its sports betting solution, and it aims to submit subsequent requests to the ARJEL for online horse betting and poker licences.
Constantinos Antonopoulos, Intralot Group CEO, commented: "The online licence 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."
