Six Weeks Until The Scandinavian & Nordic Gaming Show 2025 Chairperson Shares Key Market Developments
The Nordics are at the forefront of a fascinating transformation. With evolving regulations, licensing reforms, and emerging technologies reshaping the landscape, SNGS 2025 provides attendees with a unique chance to understand these changes firsthand. Expect to discover new market opportunities, gain insights into innovative approaches, and connect with key decision-makers driving the industry forward.
Exclusive Take on the Future of Nordic Gaming: Early Insights from Our Chairperson
As we approach SNGS 2025, Peter-Paul de Goeij, Managing Consultant at Quod Bonum and Chairperson of the event, offers a first look at the trends, challenges, and opportunities shaping the Nordic gaming landscape.
On the trends most transformative for the next 1–2 years in the Nordic markets, Peter-Paul shared:
“The Nordic markets are maturing fast. Channelisation and consumer protection will dominate the coming years. Sweden is debating further restrictions, Denmark is fine-tuning, Finland is moving towards licensing, and Norway remains an outlier with its monopoly, with a chance to change after the upcoming election next week. The real transformation is in how regulators balance strict controls with maintaining high channelisation. That will define success or failure.”
Turning to sustainability and responsible gaming, he added:
“Sustainability and responsible gaming are non-negotiable. The Nordic region is ahead of many others in demanding transparency, monitoring player behaviour, and strict marketing standards. I expect more harmonisation across markets, more use of data-driven monitoring, and a sharper focus on early intervention. Operators who invest seriously here will keep their licence to operate.”
With expansion beyond the Nordics in focus, here's his advice for operators scaling internationally:
“Think global, act local. Scaling beyond the Nordics means respecting local rules as much as Nordic regulators demand at home. There is no one-size-fits-all. My advice: build compliance into the core business model, not as an afterthought. Invest in legal expertise, engage with policy makers, politicians and regulators early, and prioritise reputation over short-term growth.”
Peter-Paul also reflected on the role of SNGS in strengthening the Nordic market:
“For years now, SNGS has been bringing regulators, operators, suppliers, and experts together in one place. It is not just a Nordic gathering, it is a lighthouse for the entire European online gaming arena. The show strengthens the market by creating dialogue and by positioning the Nordics as a reference point for the highest standards.”
As for what makes SNGS 2025 a“must-attend” event, he said:
“Professionals should attend SNGS to get a clear, unfiltered view of what is coming. The event combines regulatory updates, business insights, and real networking opportunities. If you want to understand where Nordic regulation and innovation are heading, you cannot afford to miss it.”
Finally, Peter-Paul shared what he's most looking forward to:
“As Chairman, I look forward to facilitating frank and constructive debate and meeting with friends and colleagues from all over the industry again. I also want to thank and recognise Jan Feuerhake, who has been an excellent Chair and set a very high bar. For me, the highlight will be seeing the Nordic community continue to lead the way in shaping sustainable, transparent, and competitive markets.”
