The SBC Summit North America is ready, set, and go for May 7th – 9th at the Meadowlands Exposition Center in New Jersey. The event will feature a ‘Sports Betting’ Track, designed so the top luminaries in the industry can share their thoughts on the latest sports betting trends, innovative technologies, and the evolving North American sports betting landscape.
The “sports betting” track will provide delegates the opportunity to bolster their educational prowess on key topics such as forging successful operator-league partnerships, exploring the emerging technology set to innovate the sports betting market, the intricate world of media partnerships, and much more.
Rasmus Sojmark, CEO & Founder of SBC, said: “Since the regulation of sports betting in 2018, an impressive 38 states now offer sports betting in some form, which is an amazing achievement. Couple that with the emergence of new sports betting technologies, products, and services, the sports betting track provides a unique opportunity to explore innovative strategies, regulatory updates, and market trends shaping the future of sports wagering. We believe that by hosting the sports betting conference track across both core days of the event, we will be able to provide delegates with comprehensive discussions encompassing every major development within the sports betting landscape, ensuring they are equipped to capitalize on one of the most exciting verticals in the market.”
