Responsible Gambling - Can a gambling company lead the way...?
Gambling is a very sensitive topic. While being an enjoyable activity, it is perched atop an all too slippery slope, one where customers often lose control and fall off into a downward spiral that often has tragic consequences.   But surely it is in every gambling company's interest that people go down that slope as it means more money, right?   In this conversation we speak with Maris Catania, the Head of Responsible Gambling & Research at Kindred Group who seems to disagree. This is part 1 of a 2-part interview.
