SBC Events has announced a collaboration with media production and content company +More Media to present The Earnings+More: Capital Markets Forum as part of SBC Summit North America 2024.

Taking place on the pre-event day on May 7, 2024, the forum will bring together 500 senior executives from the gaming industry and investment world to discuss a range of topics affecting the North American betting and gaming sector.

Through a series of conference sessions, several discussions will take place on a variety of topics including the industry’s trajectory, the position of market leaders, competition from challenger brands, M&A opportunities, and supplier evaluations.

Aidan Brain, VP of Conference Production (Americas) at SBC, said: “M&A activity is experiencing a remarkable upswing within the industry, especially in the US. This underscores the need to set aside time for deliberations on how the global economic situation and the intricate regulatory environment influence the industry’s overarching landscape.

“Furthermore, the discourse surrounding emerging markets and strategic investments is highly relevant. We’re thrilled to collaborate with AndMore Media to make these conversations possible.”

The forum is set to act as a utility for C-suite executives focusing on M&A activities, advisers from banking and gaming backgrounds, banking professionals, and investors to come together and discuss the state of play.

+MoreMedia publishes a series of industry newsletters including Earnings+More, which serves as a hub for news, views, and insights for the gaming sector. The newsletter covers M&A trends, as well as emerging markets and releases from regulated jurisdictions.

Scott Longley, Managing Director of +More Media, commented on the partnership: “We are truly excited to combine our subject matter proficiency with SBC’s expansive industry network to deliver high-level content and focused dialogues on where investments should be directed and where industry restraint is warranted.

“SBC has a strong track record of orchestrating outstanding events, granting access to industry leaders, and we possess the knowledge essential for driving these discussions.”

Scheduled for May 7-9, 2024, the 2024 SBC Summit North America will be held at the Meadowlands Exposition Center in New Jersey. The event is expected to host 5,000 delegates, feature over 75 exhibitors, and bring together 300 speakers to share their expertise on the expanding online betting and gaming industry in the United States and Canada.

The Earnings+More: Capital Markets Forum is set to be a key component of the pre-day conference, featuring the Player Protection Symposium among other additional elements.
