About Beth

Beth Turner, Senior Staff Writer at Gambling Insider, has spent recent years delving into the ever-evolving global gaming industry. With prior experience in sports and crypto journalism, Beth has spent the last year leading the affiliate publication Trafficology, while also engaging in video interviews, panels and exclusive industry events.

Beth has found a particular knack for crunching numbers and understanding data, finding trends among financial results from operators and suppliers. She has a particular interest in the responsible gaming and regulatory side of the industry, often asking interview subjects for their takes on how they keep up with and remain compliant with developing legislation.

When people want something, they will get it – and gambling is no different. Beth is a believer in firm but fair regulation, to allow people to engage responsibly with gaming, and to do so with operators beholden to player safety and their local governments. To ban is to force users underground – and as history has shown us, prohibition rarely works.
