Rasmus Sojmark, Founder and CEO of SBC, commented: “The opportunities for operators, suppliers and affiliates as new markets open across the U.S. and Canada and existing ones mature are huge, and also the subject of intense interest from the international gambling industry.
“So we’re delighted to return to New Jersey with an event that will offer expert insights that are not available anywhere else on those opportunities, as well as a much-needed chance for people from across the industry to connect face-to-face and do business.”
