SBC Summit Americas returns next week with the launch of SBC Connections, a new networking programme designed to transform how attendees meet, connect and do business.
Rasmus Sojmark, Founder & CEO of SBC, says: “The industry doesn’t necessarily need more networking opportunities; it needs better ones. SBC Connections was created to help attendees spend less time searching for the right people and more time having the conversations that can genuinely move their business forward.
“Combined with an agenda tackling some of the industry’s most pressing issues and an exhibition floor showcasing the latest products, technologies and services, we are focused on delivering an event experience that creates real value for every delegate.”
SBC Connections is designed to help attendees make more valuable business connections through a range of curated networking formats, powered by the SBC Connect app. SBC Connect Meets is a pre-arranged meeting service that enables attendees to identify relevant contacts, schedule one-to-one meetings and maximize their time onsite. The Hive is a series of themed speed networking sessions designed to help delegates expand their network through a high volume of targeted introductions. The Inner Circle is an exclusive post-session discussions, offering attendees 30 minutes of direct access to speakers and the opportunity to dive deeper into prediction markets and sweepstakes. The Exchange is five informal, topic-led networking meetups connecting delegates facing similar challenges and opportunities. The Briefings is 13 small-group breakfast and lunch roundtables focused on the issues shaping the industry. And The Walk Around provides guided exhibition tours designed to connect delegates with exhibitors aligned to their business objectives.
As prediction markets continue to gain momentum, the event will also feature a dedicated Prediction Markets Forum examining the sector’s rapid growth, evolving regulatory landscape and potential implications for the future of gaming and sports betting. The conversation will extend beyond the conference agenda through a series of dedicated networking formats, including prediction market-focused editions of the Inner Circle, Exchange and Briefing.
Networking and VIP Pass holders, including operators and affiliates, will gain access to two evening networking events across the week The Opening Party kicks off the week on Tuesday, June 9th, at The Wharf, while the INFINITY Florida Party returns to DAER Nightclub & Dayclub on Thursday, June 11th, with a headline performance from internationally renowned EDM artist, Oliver Heldens.
