From the Canadian Gaming Association (CGA) and MediaEdge Communications Welcome to Niagara Falls and the 2018 Canadian Gaming Summit – “Canada’s premier annual conference and exhibition for gaming professionals”. We are thrilled to be back in this vibrant city, home to both Fallsview Casino and Casino Niagara. It is fitting that a city that welcomes the world is our destination to bring the Canadian gaming industry together. It’s an exciting time to be working in this industry, as we are in a period of expansion and renewal – look no further than the numerous developments in progress here in Ontario. We are also focused on our customers and the quality of their experience, and how technological innovation may open up new options for entertainment.

You put in long hours to make sure you’re delivering on your promise to guests, and we’re here to do the same for you. We want to partner with you to help you grow your business, along with providing you delicious, carefully crafted foods.

The Summit is the only national gaming event attended by all of Canada’s major players – crown agencies, gaming property owners and operators, the charitable gaming sector, First Nations, food and beverage professionals, the horse racing industry, and manufacturers and suppliers of gaming equipment, systems, and services. Once again, Summit program development has been driven by dialogue with delegates, sponsors and exhibitors about how we can deliver the highest quality event for the best value. This year, we have refined the number of programs being offered to improve the depth and quality of the information and education experience. Our working partnership for the development and delivery of the gaming education component of this Summit involved: Atlantic Lottery Corporation, British Columbia Lottery Corporation, Lotto-Quebec, Manitoba Liquor and Lotteries, SaskGaming, and a wide array of gaming industry manufacturers and service providers. We encourage all delegates to take advantage of information and content on hand, as well as the many formal and informal networking opportunities to exchange information and catch up with colleagues from across the country and around the world.

KEYNOTE SESSIONS Wednesday June 20, 2018

Tuesday June 19, 2018 Blockchain and The Power to Transform Exhibit Hall A and B A lot of hype surrounds blockchain technology and how it may impact or disrupt industries. Anthony Lacavera draws on interviews he has conducted for global media outlets with industry leaders and innovators from around the world to cut through the noise and identify where the business opportunities are. With over 20 years of experience in founding, growing and selling companies, Anthony shares his key strategies on being competitive, innovative and ensuring your business evolves to keep pace with technology, including the latest advancements in artificial intelligence. Anthony goes beyond the crypto craze and showcases companies leading the charge in developing blockchain technology to transform everything from payments, to loyalty programs and smart contracts. Presenter: Athony Lacavera, Chairman Globalive

1:45pm - 2:30pm Gaming with XYZ Exhibit Hall A and B Present day and future implications in the gaming environment told by the unique perspectives of three demographic cohorts, Generations X, Y and Z. Gain a thorough understanding of how to leverage the distinctive needs across three generations in order to be relevant. For many years one of the biggest challenges facing gaming entities was how to grow market share. In recent years, it has become more clear that the challenge may be shifting to ‘how to maintain share.’ In light of the changing gaming and entertainment landscape, the uncertain social and economic conditions, the increased popularity of digital and e-commerce, and the rapid rise of the omni-channel consumer, gaming entities are facing significant challenges in retaining market share as consumers age through demographic cohorts. Join Paul Lauzon (Gen X) and Paige Schoenfeld (Gen Y) from Ipsos as they provide perspective on what XYZ differences exist and why these differences may matter to you based on national survey-based research. Specifically: • Get the stats on gambling participation across XYZ. • Understand XYZ’s union of gambling, social gaming, lottery, fantasy sports, and Esports in the context of entertainment or leisure resulting in a murkier competitive landscape for gaming entities. • Get to know how XYZ align on their outlooks on life, shopping behaviours, entertainment, media consumption, and communication differences. • Dig deep on XYZ’s views in popularity of mobile gaming, sports betting, casino gaming, or buying a draw game lottery ticket. • Place your bets on the likelihood of XYZ to buy an instant ticket, pay for an in-game/ app feature, or sports wager. • Double down on differences in motivations and barriers to visiting a casino, playing the lottery, or gambling online.

8:45am - 9:45am The Future of Marketing: From 4Ps and 7Ps to 15Cs and A Framework for Creating Customer Loyalty Exhibit Hall A and B

​

This seminar will focus on how marketing has involved over the years and how this new view of marketing can help create great customer experiences and also drive profits to the firm. Part of the new marketing is the focus on creating great customer loyalty. A way to think about creating customer loyalty is The Loyalty Circle©. The three main functions on the circle are Process, Value, and Communication. At different points along the circle, there are places were the customer might exit the circle and hence the relationship. The goal of operators is to keep the customer in the circle by executing equally well the three functions of the circle. Equality is the key to the Loyalty Circle. If hoteliers are great on creating value for instance, but do not effectively communicate with the customer, then that customer may leave the relationship. Shoemaker will detail the Loyalty Circle and show how different hospitality and gaming companies are using this model in their daily business practices. Presenter: Stowe Shoemaker, PhD Dean, William F. Harrah College of Hospitality Michael D. Rose Distinguished Chair University of Nevada, Las Vegas ​

TECHNOLOGY AND INNOVATION Tuesday, June 19, 2018 10:25am – 11:10am The In-Room Technology Revolution and How it Will Impact Your Guests Ballroom B

3:05pm - 3:50pm How to Build a Culture That Embraces Innovation: Lessons From the Frontlines Ballroom B

Technology has entered the guest room and everyone needs to be ready to respond to these trends. Voice command and remote access from your smartphone is everywhere, from ordering room service to controlling the temperature with tablets. Hospitality TVs are almost a standard and the option of having robots bring towels to a room is real. Guests will have less opportunity to interface with your staff, so it’s critical to know what and how to implement these emerging technologies.

Companies today talk about being innovative but few are actually able to build a culture that embraces and encourages innovation. This plenary will explore how Atlantic Lottery Corporation, British Columbia Lottery Corporation, Foxwoods Resort Casino and Aristocrat Technologies are working to build and foster innovation. We will explore the challenges, opportunities, and success that these organizations experienced on their respective journeys.

GAMING COMPLIANCE Tuesday, June 19, 2018 10:25am - 11:10am Embracing Technology From A Gaming Regulator’s Perspective Theatre B As new technologies are being introduced at a reasonably rapid pace to the gaming marketplace, gaming regulators must also embrace technology and fundamentally change their approach.

3:05pm - 3:50pm

11:15pm - 12:00pm Leveraging Technology to Strengthen and Enhance Compliance Focusing on Three Unique Perspectives Theatre B Compliance is not a new concept to the gaming industry, however the concept of leveraging new technology to more effectively and efficiently manage compliance-related activities has not kept pace with industries. How can gaming regulators, manufacturers, and operators leverage technology tools to better develop, manage, and respond to gaming compliance requirements? What tools have others used that are leading edge and could be leveraged by other gaming organisations? This session will provide three unique perspectives: a regulators enablement of technology to better

Compliance & Security Theatre B Cyber-security is no longer an issue that impacts the IT and or Security departments. Executives, General Managers and all operational staff need to be aware of the risks and threats to the sensitive data at their properties as well as the controls in place to protect this information. Casinos collect a lot of sensitive information, such as names, addresses, dates of birth, driver’s licenses, and payment card data of their patrons. This information is stored within the various systems, such as player tracking systems. Data breaches are common news occurrences these days, and the information stored on Casino networks

are exactly what malicious employees and hackers are looking for. This session will provide information on threats impacting the casino industry in which fraudsters and hackers are accessing information systems and stealing data. We will also discuss the cybersecurity controls and best practices that need to be in place to protect information in the casinos custody as well as outline the importance of Cyber Education for an organization and how managing their compliance of this training is paramount.

10:45am - 11:30am AML Theatre B AML compliance continues to be a hot topic in both the global gaming

The topics for discussion will include: • What are the highlights and implications of the recommendations coming from the BC Attorney General’s independent review (the German Report)? • What has been discovered in BC and is it different or similar to what is occurring in other countries facing similar issues? • What can the Canadian gaming industry learn from other jurisdictions when it comes to combatting money laundering? • What are the fundamental issues that casino executives and government need to understand in formulating best practices for AML compliance? • What constitutes a culture of compliance & the 8 elements of a culture of compliance? • What are some of the most common failures in AML compliance at casinos? (i.e., review of any recent enforcement actions) • How can technology be used to assist in AML compliance? • What are the current priorities for federal and provincial regulatory agencies with regard to AML compliance? • What sort of challenges could casino operators face in complying with regulatory changes? • A look ahead for the next year in casino anti-money laundering compliance.

First Nations – Indigenous Gaming Regulatory Issues, Challenges and Potential Frameworks Ballroom C

21st Century Responsible Gaming – Marijuana Impairment, Self-Exclusion and Duty of Care Ballroom C

The Legal Dilemma of Daily Fantasy Sports Ballroom C

Indigenous Regulation – what could it look like? This panel will review Indigenous regulation of gaming from a practical perspective, examining how it could work based on past experiences and potential.

The vast majority of people who gamble do so responsibly. While the percentage of people who develop problem gambling issues is not large, the impact of those issues upon the minority that suffers from them may be severe, and responsible actors in the industry have long agreed that this merits a proactive response. With that in mind, this panel will address emerging issues in the promotion of Responsible Gambling, consider how gaming industry professionals and regulators should prepare to address them, and review recent developments in the law concerning the circumstances in which gaming venues may be liable for the negative impact of problem gambling. Topics will include:

Moderator: Donald Bourgeois, Principal, Gaming & Regulation Group Inc. Panelists: Professor Kathryn Rand, Dean, School of Law, University of North Dakota Professor Steven Light, Dean, College of Business and Public Administration Murray Marshall, General Counsel, Kahnawake Gaming Commission Matt Jamieson, Chief Executive Officer, Six Nations of the Grand River Economic Development Corporation Pat Brett, General Manager, Golden Eagle and Gaming File Lead, Wauzhushk Onigum Nation Gary White, Senior Manager, Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario

• Social Media and RG – How do social media campaigns change behaviour? What does an effective Responsible Gambling promotion campaign look like? • Game Design: Implementing RG initiatives in VLT environments. Characterizing game features, including those features associated with harmful impacts • Player Incentives: Can the practice of providing players with incentives to generate casino revenue be done in a manner that is consistent with the goals of Responsible Gambling? • Cannabis Use and Responsible Gambling Moderator: Kevin Weber, Partner, Dickinson Wright LLP Panelists: Dr. Jeffrey Derevensky, Professor McGill University Judith Glynn, M. Sc., Principal, Strategic Science

Fantasy sports leagues and, in particular, daily fantasy sports leagues (“DFS”) have been the subject of significant debate in many countries, including Canada and the United States for a number of years. DFS sits on the boundary between legal sports competitions and illegal gambling. While its place on one side of that boundary or the other is a continuing point of dispute in some jurisdictions, other jurisdictions have moved forward and chosen to regulate and tax DFS as a legal form of entertainment. The panel will briefly review the nature of the legal dilemma in various jurisdictions and then move on to a review and discussion of the means by which governments of a number of countries and U.S. states have chosen to regulate DFS. Moderator: Danielle Bush, Partner, Miller Thomson Panelists: Jeffery Haas, CIO, Draft Kings Inc.

3:55pm - 4:40pm Financing Technology Companies in Canada: Legal Issues, Steps to Success, Approval Processes, and Funding Methods Ballroom C The gaming industry has undergone significant corporate and business restructuring over the course of the past year, including the addition of new entrants, the consolidation of existing participants, and the expansion and refinancing of a broad group of entities. Both public and private financing has played a key role in these events. A panel of individuals, representing lenders, borrowers and other industry experts will address the current and future state of gaming business financing, providing a unique perspective on related issues.

Artificial Intelligence, Big Data and Making Sense of it All Ballroom C

The Life and Times of Gaming Regulators Ballroom C

The collection, storage and analysis of data and the ability to manipulate it to the benefit of participants in the gaming industry (whether they be regulators, operators or customers), has increasingly become the dominant element underpinning who succeeds and who does not. The introduction of Artificial Intelligence (AI) will both simplify and complicate this pursuit. A distinguished panel, which will include a range of industry experts, will seek to provide answers to a host of key questions from critical perspectives. Moderator: Peter Czegledy, Partner, Aird & Berlis LLP Panelists: Craig Slater, General Counsel, Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario Simo Dragicevic, CEO, BetBuddy at Playtech Charles Ling, Professor, University of Western Ontario

This interesting panel discussion will focus on and analyze the everyday problems and issues that confront gaming regulators.

3:55pm - 4:40pm The Importance of Casino Amenities: How Technology Helped Bridge the Gap Between Player Behavior and Amenity Preferences Room 201 In a limited survey of two casino sites, we found amenities to be a critical part of that facility. Through statistical modelling, we found that players who participated in amenities visited more and spent more. Additionally, through the use of technology that combined research and player behaviour data, we found differences in amenity preference by segment, and that the highest value players simply wanted dining amenities.
