Dear EL Member,

Welcome to the 12th EL Congress in Bern, Switzerland, from 14 to 17 September 2025! 

Lotteries have always been a force for good - bringing people together, supporting communities, funding public projects, and evolving alongside society. As the world changes, we embrace progress while staying true to our purpose. 

With the theme "Building a Better World,'' the Congress will bring together lottery leaders, innovators, and policymakers to shape the future of lotteries. From responsible innovation to regulatory challengeswe will focus on ensuring lotteries remain relevant and trusted for generations to come. 

The Trade Show will showcase innovations shaping the sector, while the 2025 EL Advertising Awards will celebrate excellence in lottery marketing. The Congress will conclude with the EL General Assembly on 17 September

Bern, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a model of sustainability, blends history with progress, making it the ideal setting to drive innovation and reinforce our societal role.

On behalf of the EL Executive Committee, our hosts Loterie Romande and Swisslos, and the EL Partners, I look forward to welcoming you to Bern. 

Romana Girandon
EL President
