Forecast for the online gaming French market

After the announcement of a new Internet law in France which will finish with the existing online gaming industry monopoly and at the same time will legalize the sector, the consulting firm MECN undertook a deep research project to evaluate the impact of this news.

The study’s results forecast a considerable growth in the online gaming industry, including the online poker and online casino sectors. In fact, it is estimated that in 2015 the whole gaming industry will be valuated €17 billion.
Moreover, a good prove of how well is being received the new Internet law is the fact that two thirds of the operators interviewed by MECN have shown a clear interest in the opening of the French market, which they define as a key market.
