Market outlook: The global sports betting opportunity 

In this session, speakers from leading industry research company VIXIO Regulatory Intelligence provided exclusive data insights from its recent forecasting work covering North America, Latin America and Europe. This was followed by an extended Q&A section with Kambi’s SVP Risk & Compliance, Oliver Lamb, where the panelists offered their expert perspectives on everything from the UK gambling white paper to opportunities in Asia to the regulatory roadmap for California, Florida and Texas. 

“Florida is the most likely to move quickly because, in theory, if the court decision goes the way of the Seminole tribe, then it could switch sports betting on immediately”
