Mission

Carda Consultancy is a research institution (onderzoeksinstelling) dedicated to preventing harm caused by gaming and gambling through the development of innovative technologies grounded in mathematics and deep domain expertise.

We pursue this mission by:

• Advising policymakers on effective strategies to reduce the negative impact of gaming and gambling.

• Developing predictive models to help identify individuals at risk of gambling-related harm.

• Demonstrating how easily bots can outperform human players in certain settings—such as online poker—to raise awareness about the machine-like nature of such activities and discourage excessive, high-volume play.

Carda Consultancy collaborates closely with several universities and operates in accordance with the principles outlined in the Netherlands Code of Conduct for Research Integrity (Nederlandse Gedragscode wetenschappelijke integriteit).
