INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION Welcome to the second edition of the CasinoBeats Summit, an event that has grown dramatically since the first staging, 12 short months ago. It’s good to see you.

So what’s different this year? Well, the obvious change is one of scale. There are four content tracks, not two; two conference rooms instead of one; and, perhaps most notably, a large exhibition space filled with some of the sector’s most recognisable names.

STEWART DARKIN Managing Director CasinoBeats

Betting on Sports - bigger than ever - is once again taking place downstairs, while we are also co-located with the AffiliateINSIDER’s Digital Marketing Forum and the PaymentExpert Forum.

This year also sees the launch of the Safer Gambling Forum, taking place on day two of the Summit and featuring some of the leading names in the fields of responsible gaming and sustainability. But, since you’re here, you probably know all of this.

So what’s up next? Well, on Thursday night at the Natural History Museum Hall of Fame networking party, look out for the inaugural CasinoBeats Pride of Gaming Awards. We’ll be handing out three to individuals or organisations that have done the most to promote the good name and image of casino gaming, in whatever form.

We will also be giving out more casino gongs at the SBC Awards on December 3 at Battersea Evolution, in London’s Battersea Park. Into the New Year, things get really exciting with the second edition of CasinoBeats Malta in late March. As with the London event, our second Malta summit will be considerably bigger than in 2019.

The next big date in the diary is the return of Betting on Sports America, back at the Meadowlands Expo Center in New Jersey on April 28-30.

But let’s not get carried away with what 2020 holds just yet. We’ve worked hard with a wide range of stakeholders and supporters from across the industry to make this year’s Summit a watershed moment for CasinoBeats and to offer the sector something highly valuable, engaging and fun.

So please make the most of the opportunity - and thanks for joining us.

WELCOME

FOREWORD Hello and thanks for joining us at our second, much larger, CasinoBeats Summit, taking place alongside the biggest ever Betting on Sports.

This will be the last London staging for now, as we move our flagship events to Barcelona in 2020, complete with a number of key changes to reflect the growing, global nature of the shows.

RASMUS SOJMARK CEO / Founder SBC

This growth is also evident at Olympia, with the CasinoBeats Summit and Betting on Sports co-located for the first time with the Digital Marketing Forum and the PaymentExpert Forum.

We’re also very excited to host the first ever Safer Gambling Forum, the industry response to which has been nothing short of phenomenal. We’ve other big changes planned, so if you want to know more, visit the SBC stand, N1, on Level 2 at Olympia.

It will also give us an opportunity to update you on the many changes to the SBC portfolio of brands and events that have taken place in the last two years or so.

When you add to the mix our magazines and digital broadcast products, such as webinars and our dramatically increased video capacity, SBC - through CasinoBeats and our other platforms - is doing its best to keep the industry informed and move the conversation forward.

WELCOME Great to welcome you to CasinoBeats Summit 2019! Now in its second year as a combined event with Betting on Sports, CasinoBeats Summit has made a major leap, effectively doubling in size in content, speakers, exhibit, and delegates.

JAAP KALMA Group Chief Commercial Officer SBC

As you plan your upcoming days at the conference, I strongly suggest you to fully leverage the many different resources the show has to offer you: Besides the greatly expanded CasinoBeats Summit conference sessions in 4 tracks with some of the biggest names in the industry sharing their expertise, the many stands on the CasinoBeats exhibit floor with some of the most innovative companies, and the networking occasions during the day and during the classy evening events at Flight Club and the Natural History Museum, you will also have access to the Digital Marketing Forum, the PaymentExpert Forum, the new Safer Gambling Forum, and Betting on Sports of course. It will be impossible to partake in everything, but by balancing your time and connecting to as many of the show participants as possible, you are sure to spend some extremely valuable days and get off to a running start of the year.

In reaction to the gaming industry’s enthusiastic reaction to our offering, SBC will greatly increase its activities in 2020, expanding to two major events in gaming and a rapid development of our CasinoBeats.com channel, while growing our partnership team to support you. There will be many interesting, bespoke opportunities to boost your marketing and sales efforts and step up your company’s development. So please make sure to keep some time to come by our Stand N1 on Level 2 of Olympia, so we can sit down together and tell you more about it.

Thanks for joining us at CasinoBeats Summit, we look forward to meet with you!

PLAYER FOCUSED GAME DESIGN

Melanie Hainzer, Wildz Casino Simon Collins, MD, River iGaming Tom Wood, VP and Chief Creative Officer, SG Digital

Leading slots developers and operators share insights into the ways studios use data to inform product design and, crucially, whether that input is instrumental in what makes a slot a hit (or miss). Do we listen to players enough (or perhaps too much)? What precisely do players want? Does a sea of data on player habits lead to a risk that developers simply provide more of the same?

We deep dive the affiliate landscape as it stands and understand how the traffic ecosystem is currently being split. The rise of M&A and publisher networks as well as media conglomerates working in the affiliate channel changes the way digital marketers plan their acquisition. Affiliates are becoming more diverse and complex it’s not just about acquisition but also conversion and retention opportunities that they present as businesses as well as how they regulate and become socially responsible too. We discuss how the affiliate model will develop and what opportunities are arising for collaboration on a deeper level.
