GLOBAL GAMING BUSINESS PODCAST: Geoff Freeman, President & CEO, American Gaming Association

Geoff Freeman last week announced he was departing the American Gaming Association after five years at the help. Freeman was appointed president and CEO of the American Gaming Association in 2013, succeeding the founding CEO Frank Fahrenkopf. Freeman immediately began transforming the AGA into an aggressive proponent of the gaming industry, changing the strategy of playing defense to being totally proactive. Today, the AGA presents a positive image of the gaming industry to the world, and won a major victory with the Supreme Court decision to legalize sports betting in the U.S. in May. He spoke with GGB Publisher Roger Gros in Las Vegas in October, well before the Supreme Court decision.
