Regulating the Game conference arriving to London for the first-time ever in just a month

Australian gambling law firm Senet will be hosting its first-ever London edition of Regulating the Game. The conference, already established in Australia, is set to take place on September 25-29, featuring a 5-day immersive program that focuses on leading-edge research, regulatory policy and practice, and ethical leadership in the gambling sector.

The inaugural London edition comes at a key point in time for the sector. The gambling policy landscape in the UK, much like Australia, remains under intense scrutiny, and uncertainty persists regarding potential reforms and the risk of cumbersome intervention stifling the sector without improving safer gambling and compliance outcomes.

Senet's regulatory and gambling specialist Paul Newson described the event as "one-of-a-kind worldwide" which will "deliberately bring all stakeholders together" to hear leading regulatory and industry speakers, challenge thinking, contest ideas, and help build a deeper understanding of the sector.

According to Newson, the event is about stimulating conversation and engagement with evidence-led policy development that can advance efficient and effective regulation, as well as foster an invigorated, innovative, and sustainable sector.

"In the face of regulatory headwinds and associated public policy uncertainty, it is increasingly important for the industry to maintain a persuasive voice, engage in policy discussions, contribute to the regulatory discourse, build capability, and nurture a workplace culture of ethical leadership and social responsibility," Newson said.

Newson further shared that Senet has partnered with the International Centre for Gaming Regulation, UNLV, to deliver Regulating the Game London, "which enables us to bring another international lens to the conference including unique knowledge and experience from Las Vegas, Nevada."

The company has also confirmed that its next Sydney conference will take place from March 10-15, 2024. Applications for Pitch! @RTG Sydney are now open.

"We are inviting applications from organizations and individuals interested in delivering short quickfire pitches to stimulate innovation, inspire compliance, and showcase ethical leadership as part of this exciting networking event," he concluded.
