Global Markets: North America event schedule unveiled by SBC Summit
The SBC Summit 2025, set to take place in Lisbon from September 16 to 18, promises to be a global gathering of 30,000 gaming industry stakeholders. The three-day event will delve into technology, regulatory issues, player protection, market innovation, and strategic future planning across all gaming sectors [1][2].
The focus of the summit will be on sports betting and iGaming in North America, with a special emphasis on the booming popularity of alternative betting models amid a slowdown in U.S. states legalizing igaming. The alternatives include sweepstakes casinos, daily fantasy sports, and peer-to-peer betting [3].
One of the key panels, "The Social Side of Betting - Peer-to-Peer, Gamification & Community", will examine peer-to-peer wagering and its potential to reshape how players engage with betting. The discussion will focus on the rise of alternative betting formats in the North American region [4].
Another panel, "Tribal Gaming: Blurred Lines or Commercial Collaboration", will delve into how alternative betting formats are affecting North America's tribal gaming sector. The panel will include industry leaders such as Tony Amormino, CEO of Apache Nugget Corporation, Robert Davidman, CEO of World Golf Series, Will Griffiths, Founder, Investor & Tribal Partner at Level Media, and Jamie Hummingbird, Chairman of the National Tribal Gaming Commissioners & Regulators [5].
The "Sweepstakes Boom - Sustainable Growth or Short-Lived Trend?" panel will discuss the rise of sweepstakes and live casinos across the United States and their potential for a lasting market. The panel will also explore how responsible frameworks could impact the sustainability of these formats [6].
The Global Markets: North America track, which will take place at the Feira Internacional de Lisboa, will cover three days of market-focused content. The track will feature panels on payments, affiliation, player protection technologies, and strategic debates about the industry's future [2].
Notably, the panelists for discussions on alternative betting models in North America are not specified in the search results. However, the SBC Summit 2025 includes a "Global Markets North America" stage, which likely includes discussions on alternative betting models [4].
