Online casino giant Betano contracted the consulting firm Imaginacción, led by former minister Enrique Correa, in early 2024. The hiring was done directly by Betano’s parent company, Kaizen Gaming, based in Greece. The purpose of the engagement was to closely monitor legislative discussions regarding online casinos, as Kaizen reportedly distrusted information coming from the online casino association led by Carlos Baeza. While no public lobbying records with lawmakers exist, Imaginacción’s Public Affairs department handled the advisory work for Betano. This department specializes in bridging connections between the public and private sectors. The move suggests a strategic effort by Betano to proactively influence the regulatory landscape surrounding online gambling. The arrangement raises questions about transparency and access in legislative processes.
