CasinoBeats Summit 2023: SBC goes around the world with its ‘Global Casino’ conference track

The eagerly awaited 5th edition of CasinoBeats Summit is nearly upon us and is set to deliver its highly coveted ‘Global Casino’ conference track. Situated across both days of the event (24-25 May) the track will be showcasing an in-depth analysis of the ever-changing gaming industry on a global scale with roundtables and panel discussions covering jurisdictions such as Malta, Germany, Sweden, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, the UK and Ontario, among others.

The best and brightest minds in the casino industry will come together at the InterContinental Hotel in Malta, the hub of iGaming, to discuss the evolving landscape of iGaming. Attendees will be given the opportunity to learn and participate in an assortment of discussions, including: the navigation of restrictive markets, the intricacies of several iGaming jurisdictions, how to grow player databases and how local innovation can have a global impact.


Opening the summit will be the unique opportunity to participate in our ‘Emerging markets roundtables’, which alongside a vast array of industry experts, will be discussing everything from the technological landscape in Africa, to the value of casino expansions in a sports betting dominated LatAm market. With such a variety of industry experts, attendees will have the opportunity for an intimate and first hand account on everything they need to know about the evolving markets in LatAm, Africa and Japan.

 

The panel discussion “UK Focus - mitigating the increased cost of compliance” will examine how operators can intelligently adapt to continuous regulatory change and how this can be integrated into their compliance departments.
