In its bid to curb the infringements of intellectual property (IP) rights in the online space, the European Commission has published a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on advertising and IP rights. The European Gaming and Betting Association (EGBA) is part of this initiative and has been involved in the discussions on the MoU right from the start.

“EGBA supports the protection of intellectual property rights and we are proud to be part of this initiative which aims to ensure that advertising revenue will not inadvertently sustain the infringement of IP rights. Together with operators in the online gambling sector we will share, encourage and educate on the principles of this memorandum and help play a part in EU efforts to crack down on the infringement of intellectual property rights online” – Maarten Haijer, Secretary General, EGBA.
