Representatives from Appleby (Isle of Man) LLC and Appleby Trust (Isle of Man) Limited will attend one of Europe’s largest gaming conferences later this month.

Excellence in iGaming (EiG) is being held in Berlin from 21 to 23 October, and more than 250 operators will be exhibiting, including many well-known online gaming names.

Representing Appleby’s Isle of Man office will be Sandra Georgeson, Client Director in the Fiduciary & Administration department, and Claire Milne, partner in the Corporate & Commercial department.

Claire, who is also the Isle of Man Team Leader for the Telecommunications & Technology and Intellectual Property teams, is a respected figure in the gaming community and in August was appointed as a full general member of the International Masters of Gaming Law.  Claire was also Chair of the Isle of Man Gambling Supervision Commission from 2007 to 2012.

Claire and Sandra will meet delegates at the Isle of Man Government stand at EiG, assisting other leading figures from the Island’s egaming industry to promote the Isle of Man as a centre of excellence.

Claire said: ‘EiG is a major conference and exhibition for the gaming and gambling industry and a chance to explain to existing operators and related businesses, as well as start-up businesses, the benefits and attractions of the Isle of Man.

‘It is an opportunity to explain more about the Island’s unique offering, including its highly-respected licensing regime, player protection mechanisms and the professional services available to operators considering the Isle of Man as a place to do business.

‘There are important topics for discussion in the industry, and I expect the potential impact of emerging licensing regimes on the Isle of Man, as well as the Island’s attitude towards crypto-currencies, will be raised.’
