Gambling Everywhere and Chaos in the Law
Sports wagering is legal again! In 2018 the U.S. Supreme Court declared unconstitutional the 1992 Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (PASPA), allowing states to regulate sports wagering. The UK and US regulate gambling entirely differently. Our speaker is former regulatory counsel to sports betting company Kambi, with services on six continents. He’ll cover those differences and explore how gambling companies are currently operating on either side of the pond, and on both at the same time.

Tech Is Changing Everything: AI, Privacy, and More
The EU and UK have taken on a holistic approach to privacy and technology, while the US has implemented legislation incrementally.

This presentation will compare the significantly different frameworks, including varying agency oversight. Tied into everything tech are the rules and protections for intellectual property. We’ll hear about these issues from the General Counsel of one of the widest-reaching legal technology companies in the world.
