Sissel Weitzhändler

Sissel Weitzhändler serves on the 1xCare Advisory Committee, where she leads the public policy and regulation stream. Her responsibilities include overseeing funding for public‑interest initiatives and NGO accountability, and collaborating with regulators and NGOs on evidence‑based interventions. She brings deep expertise in public policy and regulation to the committee, which provides independent oversight of 1xCare’s four pillars: the Research Hub, EduCare, TechShield, and Support and Well‑Being.

1xCare is a player protection initiative established by the owner of 1xBet. The Advisory Committee was formed to guide and supervise the programme’s efforts in promoting safer gambling. Weitzhändler’s focus on public policy and regulation ensures that 1xCare’s initiatives align with best practices and regulatory expectations in the iGaming industry. Her work helps bridge the gap between industry operators, regulators, and civil society organisations dedicated to harm reduction.

Although no prior career history is publicly available, her appointment to this high‑profile advisory role underscores her recognised expertise in the field. The committee’s formation was widely reported across iGaming industry media in early 2025, highlighting Weitzhändler as a key member responsible for shaping the policy direction of 1xCare’s player protection programme.
