We are committed to continue building on the good business relationship established over the years with the Malta Gaming Authority”.
Hon. José Herrera said that the company, NetEnt is a typical example of a success story in the gaming industry in Malta, being a leading B2B supplier of digitally distributed casino gaming solutions.

The MGA has ambitious plans for the sector and will continue to innovate in order to address present and future challenges faced by this industry.
