Ontario’s regulated iGaming and sports betting market is just in its infancy after launching on April 4, but an interesting discussion on the future of online sports betting took place earlier this month at the Canadian Gaming Summit in Toronto.
A four-person panel headlined by Conor Murray, vice president of marketing at FanDuel, and Tristan Wootton, director of growth at Fitzdares, shared their visions of the future of online sports betting landscape around the globe, with a particular focus on Ontario. The panelists discussed a number of important issues, including sports betting demographic shifts, the role of fantasy sports, developments in sports betting products, and some recent comments regarding sharp sports bettors.
