The first edition of ICE North America will feature thought leaders, manufacturers and operators from North America, Europe and beyond, including Bet Invest Ltd, BetGenius, Continent8, GLI, Gain Affiliate, Intralot, Paysafe Group, SB Tech, SG Digital and Sportradar. The conference’s agenda will focus on five key verticals – Sports Betting, iGaming, Affiliate Marketing, iLottery and eSports – which will look at the upcoming opportunities for the shifting North American market.

The lineup of speakers at the event included William Hill US CEO Joe Asher; National Hockey League Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly; Milwaukee Bucks owner Wes Edens; Indiana State Senator Jon Ford; and American Gaming Association Senior Vice President Sarah Slane.

“ICE North America has struck a chord with brands wanting to establish a competitive advantage in a tremendously dynamic market full of opportunity for cross collaboration,” Clarion Gaming Event Director Rory Credland said in a statement. “We are delighted to have so many stakeholders from the international gaming, betting and wagering sectors participating, either as exhibitors, partners, speakers or sponsors.

“ICE North America will also feature influential regulators and trade bodies from across the region, including the Canadian Gaming Association, Entretenimiento y Juego de Apuesta de México (AIEJA), and Gambling Commissions from Michigan, Washington State and Massachusetts.”

Building on top of the foundations laid by ICE Sports Betting USA and GiGse, ICE North America’s ‘Join The MVP’s’ theme represents a dynamic approach to the market and a chance to explore the emerging possibilities presented by recent regulatory changes.
