The 26th edition of the Canadian Gaming Summit is set to offer a robust deep dive into financial practices in the Canadian market, during its dedicated Payments & Compliance conference track.
Running throughout Thursday 15th June, this track will offer delegates the opportunity to discuss a variety of topics based around financial institutions, payment technology’s role in user experience, alternative currencies and how the industry can work with the Federal Government whilst simultaneously modernising AML Regulations.
Opening the conference track is the panel Integrating Cashless Systems across Products: Omnichannel Technology Paving the way for Customer Choice and Compliance/Security’, discussing the pressure that land-based casinos are under to switch to completely cashless payment and reward systems and whether omnichannel payment systems are the desired middle ground.
The industry-led panel will consist of Bob McDonald (River Cree Resort), Nasr Sattar (NRT Technology), Lindsay Slader (GeoComply) and Tamara Tenenbaum (Sightline Payments).
Continuing the agenda is The World of Gaming Finance in Canada, featuring finance leaders presenting ways in which companies can work seamlessly with financial institutions and both public and private investors to finance Canadian operations.
Scott Secord (Cardinal Sports Capital), Julian Kolb (BFL Canada), Aadam Tejpar (Segev LLP) and Dani Lipkin (TMX Group) will make up the panel, with Mark Silver (The Parleh Group) moderating.
Cybersecurity: Managing Risk in a Brand-New Market will delve into the lack of strategy new online operators have in tackling cybercriminals and hackers.
Sunil Chand (OLG), Jarvis Pelletier (SIGA) David Brace (Continent8) and Carmi Levy (Step Software) will explore lessons learned from land-based operators and outside industries in safeguarding revenue, reputation and most importantly, customers.
