Gaming Laboratories International started in the spare bedroom of founder James Maida when he was working for New Jersey’s Division of Gaming Enforcement. Today, it is the industry’s premier testing lab with over 1,500 employees around the world. Maida is a member of the American Gaming Association’s Gaming Hall of Fame for his massive impact on the industry by making technology testing a centerpiece of gaming’s integrity.
