The State Lottery of Paraíba (Lotep) brought together operators, gaming experts, and stakeholders in the gaming sector during the “Lotep Day – Governance, Technology and Responsible Gaming” event, which took place yesterday (11) in João Pessoa.
The event was designed to improve and strengthen the current regulatory practices and technological and responsible gaming strategies within the regulated betting market in Paraíba.
Strengthening Dialogue Between Regulator and Operators
At the opening ceremony of the event, Lotep’s Superintendent Petrônio Rolim highlighted the importance of maintaining a continuous and updated relationship between the gaming regulator and the operators.
“The betting sector increasingly requires institutional responsibility, technology, and regulatory clarity. Lotep Day was designed precisely to strengthen this technical dialogue with operators and consolidate a model based on legal certainty, effective oversight, and consumer protection”, he stated.
This is just one more initiative from the state gaming authority to strengthen its relationship with the regulated gaming market and develop its regulation strategy.
Governance and Responsible Gaming at the Center of Discussions
The morning sessions focused on the importance of governance and responsible gaming as key aspects to be taken into account to develop a sustainable gaming industry.
Graziele Batista, president of Lotep’s Responsible Gaming Commission (CJR), highlighted the current regulations in place and emphasized the importance of shared responsibility between the gaming regulator and operators to avoid abusive gaming practices and protect consumers.
Subsequently, a lawyer named Fernanda Queiroz was invited to make a presentation on the theme “Betting Marketing in Paraíba: Obligations, Risks, and Best Practices.” In the lawyer’s speech, the legal parameters related to the advertising and communication of the activity were addressed, based on the parameters established by the Lotep Ordinance No. 36/2025 and the State Law No. 15.325/2026.
Time was given to the participants to ask their questions and contribute their points of view, thus fostering interaction among the participants before the start of the afternoon session.
