Sustainable Gambling Zone

Sustainable Gambling Zone

Formerly known as the Consumer Protection Zone, this award-winning feature at ICE is back, bigger and better than ever. Recognized by both the Vixio Regulatory Awards and Casino Guru Awards, it’s one of ICE’s most valued and impactful showcases.

In 2025, the Sustainable Gambling Zone has nearly doubled in size, solidifying its role as the leading platform for advancing safer gambling practices, driving policy discussions, and fostering collaboration. Beyond safer gambling, it embraces a holistic approach to sustainability, integrating pillars such as Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG).

Join us as we set new standards, elevate sustainability, and shape the future of responsible gaming.

  • Interactive interventions for real-time player support
  • KYC and onboarding innovations to enhance player safety

Additionally, the zone will highlight the latest developments in:
