Newgioco Becomes First Certified Provider of Online Virtual Games in Colombia
Virtual Generation Limited (VG), the wholly-owned subsidiary of Newgioco Group, has become the first certified provider of online virtual games in Colombia.
Coljuego, the national gaming authority in Colombia, has approved the use of VG products for online distribution through PC, tablet, and mobile applications. This authorization allows VG’s partner operators to offer virtual games online throughout Colombia effective immediately.
“Colombia remains at the forefront of online i-gaming and sports betting regulation in Latin American countries. Reaching this regulatory accomplishment in such a short period of time is made even more rewarding considering the ongoing logistical challenges due to the global health and economic crisis,” Michele (Mike) Ciavarella, Chief Executive Officer of Newgioco, said.
“The temporary suspension of live sports has drawn appeal and captivation with the unique features virtual gaming and esports. Virtual sports impart characteristics of live competitions and bring the sensations and emotions that would be experienced in live events down to the most minute detail. We continue to strive to provide entertaining, feature-rich products and caring customer service during this sensitive time and are very proud of all of our teams accomplishments,” he added.
