May 5, 2010 (CAP PR Wire) — GamblingCompliance, the London-based regulatory information publisher, is delighted to announce the opening of its first US office in Washington, D.C.
Set within the heart of the nation’s hub for regulatory, legislative and policy developments, GamblingCompliance’s D.C. presence will provide its subscribers with unrivaled analysis of critical state and federal developments affecting the global gaming sector.
Establishing a presence in the nation’s capital will enable GamblingCompliance’s respected team of journalists and legal analysts to have invaluable access to key lawmakers, lobbyists and decision makers, and allow GamblingCompliance to enhance the scope and depth of its coverage of the North America gaming market.
The timely launch of the US office comes as a constant stream of states continue to assess expanded gambling measures to mitigate severe budget pressures, while momentum towards regulated Internet gaming continues to build at both state and federal levels.
“GamblingCompliance has always been very proud of its ability to deliver first-class analysis of regulatory and market developments in the US gaming sector from its headquarters in London,” said David Morgan, GamblingCompliance’s founder and Chairman.
“Using our reputation for independent and impartial insight as a launch-pad, we expect to see our American coverage grow from strength-to-strength from our new base in Washington, D.C.”
Leading GamblingCompliance’s US editorial and legal analysis will be James Kilsby, Tony Batt and Elizabeth Cronan.
James Kilsby has been GamblingCompliance.com’s deputy editor in London since the site’s launch in 2007, while Tony Batt previously covered congressional developments affecting the gambling sector during more than 16 years serving as reporter in Washington, D.C. for the Las Vegas Review- Journal.
Elizabeth Cronan is a lawyer admitted to practice in Minnesota. Prior to moving to Washington, Elizabeth worked for GamblingCompliance in London and has tracked legal and regulatory developments across the US market since joining GamblingCompliance in 2008.
Tony, James and Elizabeth all co-authored GamblingCompliance’s acclaimed ‘Market Barriers – US Internet Gaming’ report which was released in January 2010.
GamblingCompliance’s new office is located at 1250 Connecticut Ave. NW in Washington DC.
