The twenty-first edition of SBC Leaders Magazine is being released this week with a brand-new editorial structure. In accordance with the publication's mandate to cover news and developments across many markets, it now contains a Canada-specific section.
Shelley White discusses her path into the betting industry and how the Canadian Responsible Gaming Council is leading the way in building a collaborative approach to safer gambling regulations in this introductory interview.
The issue's front cover, meanwhile, features Glitnor Group CEO David Flynn, who reflects on his tenure in the online gaming business and predicts where it will be in ten years.
On the North American front, SBC Leaders interviews Joanna Lambert of Yahoo Sports, who discusses the possibilities of the New York market. Joe Asher, president of IGT's sports betting division, inquires as to whether sports betting is the next great potential for tribal operators.
Thomas Carvalhaes of Hero Gaming evaluates the untapped potential of the Brazilian market prior to the highly expected formalisation of a regulated gaming framework before departing for Latin America.
The Netherlands has been selected as the newest addition to the sports betting area of Leaders. As the past few years have demonstrated, the Dutch gaming sector has had a rocky ride. Peter-Paul de Goeij, managing director of the Netherlands Online Gambling Association, elaborates on the market's inherent potential, but cautions that it is not for the faint of heart.
