Australia – IAGR conference to head to Sydney
By Phil - 24 Mai 2016
The International Association of Gaming Regulators (IAGR) is to hold its 2016 Annual Conference in Sydney, Australia over October 31 to November 3, 2016.
Bei der Veranstaltung werden Themen untersucht, die Glücksspielregulierungsbehörden, politische Entscheidungsträger und Branchenführer auf Glücksspielmärkten auf der ganzen Welt betreffen.
Die Konferenz wird sich auf die Herausforderungen konzentrieren, mit denen die Regulierungsbehörden konfrontiert sind, wenn sie versuchen, die Wirksamkeit und Effizienz der Glücksspielaufsicht zu verbessern. Zur jährlichen Zusammenkunft werden IAGR-Mitglieder erwartet, die Glücksspielgerichtsbarkeiten aus der ganzen Welt vertreten, darunter Asien, Australien, Afrika, Mittelamerika, die Karibik, Europa, Nordamerika und Südamerika. Auch Branchenvertreter sind zur Konferenz eingeladen.
“As the gambling industry is continuously evolving, primarily due to rapid technological developments, our conference programmes must always be dynamic to ensure that we don’t lose sight of emerging opportunities and challenges facing regulators across the globe”, said Bheki Mlambo, President of IAGR and Chief Executive Officer of the Mpumalanga Gambling Board. “To this end, I’m confident that the programme for Sydney 2016 conference is being developed precisely with this in mind. Our membership in attendance would surely be richly rewarded with new knowledge and experiences to be able to keep up with this complex and ever-demanding task of regulating the industry.”
“The ability to deal with common problems and share strategies and information across jurisdictions is an increasingly essential element in ensuring integrity and probity of the gambling industry in a globalized environment. The International Association of Gaming Regulators’ annual conference provides attendees with a great opportunity to network and share experiences with other regulators and learn from industry experts. Australian regulators are excited at the prospect of the annual conference coming ‘down under’ and showing-off Sydney, one of the world’s great cities,” said Michael Sarquis, Conference Sub-Committee Member and Executive Director of the Office of Liquor and Gaming Regulation, Queensland, Australia.
IAGR is also pleased to bring the IMGL Masterclass series into the Sydney conference week activities. “IMGL is very excited to be a part of the IAGR annual conference and continue its collaboration with IAGR in providing global forums for the exchange and dissemination of knowledge of gaming law and regulation,” said IMGL President Mike Zatezalo, President of Kegler, Brown, Hill & Ritter Co., LPA.
The conference will take place at the ParkRoyal Darling Harbour Hotel.
