  • Deron Hunsberger, Chief Commercial Officer, Ainsworth Game Technology
  • Grant Johnson, Chief Executive Officer & Chairman, Esports Entertainment Group

The conference will kick off with an opening reception on Wednesday, Sept. 21. There also will be three keynote addresses during the conference and a networking cocktail party on Thursday evening.

Additional panel discussions will focus on issues facing the industry, including:

  • Sports Betting: Which Model is Working Best?
  • Is Gaming Growing Responsibly?
  • The Northeast Cauldron
