INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION

Are you ready for the biggest challenge of your gambling career? It’s not facing down weekends when every single favourite in the top division wins. It’s not managing extortion demands as your website flickers on and off under a DDOS attack. It’s not trying to explain until you run out of oxygen why the latest rule change from a gaming regulator is in danger of making the whole industry unviable.

ANDREW McCARRON Managing Director SBC

It’s trying to work out which sessions to attend during a visit to Betting on Sports.

I joke of course, but many a true word is spoken in jest. One of the hallmarks of an SBC conference is to try and cram as much important and interesting content across a two day period as possible and this year I think we have outdone ourselves.

Across Betting on Sports on Level 2 and the CasinoBeats Summit on Level 3 we have seven conference tracks each day, covering as many key aspects of the business as we can to make sure there is always something interesting going on.

Coupled with the best event networking parties in the industry, bar none, the scope for improving your business is unparalleled and we are proud to bring this event to you.

Given its scale though, we understand it can be a bit of a daunting task to organise your precious time this week, which is why we want to give you the tools to succeed. The first thing you need is a Conference Programme. The good news is - you are holding it in your hands.

Secondly, you should also get hold of our small booklet with all the up to date session timings and speakers, which well help you work your way around when and where the discussions are being held.

Thirdly, you need SBC Connect. Our event app and website is the perfect accompaniment to Betting on Sports and allows you to see who is here, which companies are exhibiting and where, up to the minute session information, meeting planners and post-show videos of the conference sessions, allowing you to catch up on what you might have missed.

There is a step-by-step guide to SBC Connect on Page 12. But if you have any issues with the app, please visit us on Stand N1 and we will help you get connected.

Finally, don’t forget to join us on Thursday night where we will be inducting six people in the Sports Betting Hall of Fame in the magical surroundings of the Natural History Museum. It should be a great way to finish the week - by celebrating the unique entertainment that the industry brings to its customers.

WELCOME

FOREWORD

Hello there and welcome to our fourth and biggest Betting on Sports conference, our last one in London for the foreseeable future. Next year we will be introducing big changes to the format of our flagship global event, not least the relocation to another country.

In 2020 we have decided to move to Barcelona in order to bring the whole conference together on one level, incorporating all the different elements of this year’s show - CasinoBeats Summit, Digital Marketing Forum, Safer Gambling Forum, Payment Expert Forum and all our sports betting content - side by side.

RASMUS SOJMARK CEO / Founder SBC

We’ve other big changes planned to our portfolio of events - if you want to know more come and visit us on our own SBC stand N1 on Level 2 of Olympia. In fact, I recommend you do come and visit us and explore the areas in which SBC can help your business move forward. The organisation has grown considerably over the last two years and with it the services we offer to the industry.

We now have news portals covering the global sports betting market (SBCNews. co.uk), the North American sports betting market (SBCAmericas.com), the online gaming market (casinobeats.com), the payments sector (paymentexpert.com), the business of sport (insidersport.com), affiliate marketing (affiliateinsider.com), the business of esports (esportsinsider.com) and our newly launched Spanish language site SBCnoticias.com.

When you add in our magazines and our digital broadcast products, such as our webinars and increased video output, and of course the event that you are now attending, SBC is doing its best to keep the industry informed.

WELCOME

A warm welcome to Betting on Sports 2019! We’re really proud of the show we’ve put together for you and with you, offering you an event that is bigger – and more importantly, better - than ever in every single aspect.

JAAP KALMA Group Chief Commercial Officer SBC

Fresh from your summer holidays, you are about to immerse yourself in a few intense days of learning about the latest industry developments and connecting with the people that make it tick. The show offers you a platform to kick off the upcoming season in the best way possible. To make the most of your investment of time, it may be useful to briefly reflect on the reasons behind SBC’s continued growth.

One of the things that makes SBC unique in its approach is that it defines itself as part of the industry: We truly care about the industry’s development, and our partners’ growth reflects itself in our own growth. Our philosophy is that the industry is best served by events that offer a balanced mix of world-class content from the industry’s foremost experts, and a setting in which the industry’s most important companies can present their innovations. This mix attracts the people that move the industry into the future, and by offering an environment that offers ample opportunities to network during and after the show, a community is created that drives its growth. So our advice for the coming days is to divide your time across all the show has to offer: the conference sessions, the exhibit, and most of all the opportunities to connect with other players.

Meanwhile SBC is not resting on its laurels, but innovating its business in every aspect. The events and media we offer in 2020 will change dramatically, while the team with which we support our partners is doubling in size. My partnership colleagues Conall, Neil, Alyona, Reece, Nancy, Lorena and myself - as well as all our other colleagues at SBC - look forward to meet up with you during the conference to tell you more and to see how we can help you boost your business in the coming year. Please come and find us in Stand N1 on Level 2 of Olympia!
