Better Health for All

Inspired Entertainment's core business of providing gaming and betting solutions is directly linked to gambling, which has severe, widespread negative health impacts, including addiction, mental health issues, and an increased risk of suicide.

The company's products and services are therefore considered to cause severe, widespread health damage with no redeeming health benefits, and 100% of its revenue is derived from activities with scientifically established serious health harms. The incidence of gambling disorder, affecting millions of adults in the U.S. with a 15x higher suicide rate for problem gamblers, constitutes a severe adverse event rate. Gambling addiction disproportionately affects vulnerable populations, including young male adults and ethnic minorities, with the company stating it works with regulators to protect these groups but providing no specific data on reach. While the company mentions transparency in RTP (return to player) accessibility, the broader industry is described as a 'Wild West' environment lacking sufficient regulation regarding health risk transparency. The company mentions developing responsible gaming software but provides no specific investment figures for health improvement. The company's products contribute to significant negative health externalities, with millions of adults experiencing gambling problems in the U.S. and a 23% national increase in searches for gambling addiction help since 2018. The company mentions financial contributions to charitable gambling organizations but provides no specific amounts or program details, indicating token equity programs. The need for increased treatment services for gambling disorders suggests a need for healthcare workforce capacity, but the company provides no specific initiatives. The company emphasizes responsible gambling practices as a preventative measure, but the overall industry's focus remains predominantly on treatment. The potential for gambling addiction to lead to financial hardship and suicide attempts suggests a need for public health interventions, but the company's response to this public health crisis is reactive. The company acknowledges problem gambling as a mental health concern and provides resources, but the articles do not detail specific, comprehensive mental health initiatives or their impact. The company's addiction mitigation efforts include responsible gaming software and features, but the overall industry is noted for insufficient controls and a need for legislative action. The company provides guidance on signs of problem gambling and intervention advice, but this is basic health education reaching limited audiences.
