Per Eriksson, President and CEO of NetEnt, said: “I am very pleased that we have reached yet another important milestone in our expansion on regulated markets.

“We are the online casino supplier with the largest presence on regulated markets in terms of number of licenses and certifications that we hold, and entering the province of British Columbia in Canada is another important step for us.”
