“Those who will create the future of gaming are best positioned to help us understand that future, and we are honored to offer such an array of visionaries,” said conference co-founder Michael Pollock, managing director of Spectrum Gaming Group.
“This conference rests on the principle of having leaders speak to an audience of leaders, and we will again abide by that principle,” said conference co-founder Lloyd D. Levenson, CEO of the Cooper Levenson law firm.
Other conference topics will range from sports betting and esports to the future of i-lotteries and the “slot floor of tomorrow.”
