In response to increasing client demand, Gaming Laboratories International, LLC has opened its first office in the Caribbean. The new office is based in San Juan, Puerto Rico and former Puerto Rico Tourism Company regulator and island native Luis Del Valle will lead the office, to service GLI’s regulator and supplier clients in the region. The office was opened after the Puerto Rico Tourism Company signed an exclusive agreement for technical services with GLI related to gaming device and systems testing, field inspections and other technical services.

GLI President James R. Maida said, “We are thrilled with this new contract with the Puerto Rico Tourism Company. We have been working with the PRTC and with regulators, suppliers and operators in the region for years, and we wanted to have a daily presence in the region to better service our clients there. That is the reason for the new office, and we could not have found a better person to head the office than Luis. His experience in gaming and knowledge of the region, combined with GLI’s global expertise, will be extremely beneficial to our clients.”

GLI offers independent third party evaluation and certification of Gaming technology, devices and systems in addition to providing network and information security assessments. With 15 laboratories spread across Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, North America and South America, GLI is the only global organization of its kind to hold U.S. and international accreditations for compliance with ISO/IEC 17025, 17020 and Guide 65 standards for technical competence in the Gaming industry.
