The condensed version of the SGS 2019 agenda includes:

Day One – Thursday, 5 September

On day one, discussions will cover topics relating to:

  • The Gaming Code of Conduct in Denmark.
  • Marketing of gambling adverts in the Scandinavian countries – how to self-govern in order to avoid inappropriate or excessive legislation being imposed.
  • The greatest threat to the gaming industry is possible stricter regulation and illegal/ irresponsible operators creating a bad name and repercussions for legal operators. Recent new UK legislation and penalties is a good example. Further, new legislation normally comes with increased operator costs. Will this roll over into Scandinavia?
  • Channeling of the grey market in Scandinavian countries – effective shutdowns, especially where such set-ups are not simply black and white.
  • How to securely grow your business with bigger payouts
  • Gender diversity and the gambling industry: Using diversity to increase responsibility and market-share.
  • An action plan for responsible gaming in Scandinavian countries and beyond.

Day Two – Friday, 6 September

Day two will present delegates with an insightful agenda including presentations and discussions about:

  • How to best handle technical compliance in both Denmark and Sweden where a prescribed process of change management is in place.
  • Insights into the changes in brand strategies of different companies within the industry
  • Review of Compliance Requirements from KYC, AML to EDD – How it is changing and what operators can practically do to better know their customers to make the industry safe, profitable and sustainable.
  • Payment blocking and restrictions in Norway: Success or failure?
  • Affiliates: Rogue affiliates, and how to apply gaming and marketing legislation effectively to these.
  • Emerging / New Products: Now Poker is over, Fantasy sports is live and Bingo is no longer a monopoly. What is the next growth product?

Leverage this must-attend event to brush shoulders and network with the most prominent operators and gaming specialists in the Scandinavian market.
