Today’s pioneering operators must forge strong ties with regulators, foster responsible innovation, and hold onto their customers in a progressively intricate global environment. This program provides the practical insights and expert guidance essential for success in Western Europe. Among the panels that promise to captivate audiences are dynamic discussions featuring noteworthy personalities, including Pascal Chaffard (CFO & Strategy Officer, FDJ), Axel Hefer (CEO, Tipico), Vlad Kaltenieks (CEO, BoyleSports), and Mattias Wedar (CEO, LeoVegas).
