GLI Becomes First Laboratory Accredited in the State of Paraná, Brazil

Gaming Laboratories International (GLI) is now the first laboratory accredited in the State of Paraná and the first laboratory to be accredited following a formal laboratory accreditation process in Brazil. The milestone achievement builds on GLI’s 25 years of service to the gaming industry throughout Latin America and the Caribbean.

The laboratory accreditation authorizes GLI to perform testing and certification of lotteries and fixed-odd sports betting based on technical standards required by Loteria do Estado de Paraná (LOTTOPAR).

“This notice, for the accreditation of testing and certification laboratories, for the lottery gaming industry, demonstrates the commitment of LOTTOPAR and the Government of Paraná to provide a safe and responsible environment for lottery operations, thus guaranteeing global safety standards,” Daniel Romanowski, Director-president of Loterias do Estado do Paraná, said.

“GLI has worked closely with regulators throughout Latin America and the Caribbean for 25 years, when we obtained the first laboratory accreditation in Peru, becoming the first country to establish the process in the Region. Today, we are thrilled to achieve another historic milestone in our journey and to further assist the industry to move forward in Brazil. We are grateful to LOTTOPAR for their dedication to the regulated lottery and sports betting industry and for recognizing GLI for our accreditations, capabilities, and expertise,” said Karen Sierra Hughes, GLI Vice President of Latin America, Caribbean, and Spain.
