A panel of Wall Street analysts will be offering a financial perspective on the gaming industry at the East Coast Gaming Congress and NexGen Forum from September 21-23. The event will take place at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, New Jersey, and the panel will be moderated by Spectrum Gaming Capital Senior VP David Isaacson.
The speakers will address traditional casino companies’ acquisition of digital providers, technology companies and media companies. They will question the financial logic for sports betting and iGaming operators' lavish marketing spending. Furthermore, they will look at the threat that traditional casinos – and even state lotteries – now face from digital gaming.
Isaacson will welcome Wall Street analysts and investors to the ‘Analyze This’ discussion. Notable participants include: Beach Point Capital Management VP Gabriel Fineberg; Fitch Ratings Sector Head US Gaming Colin Mansfield; Houlihan Lokey Managing Director Joel Simkins and Credit Suisse Managing Director Teddy Swigert.
The conference will begin with an opening reception on September 21. There also will be three keynote addresses during the conference and a networking cocktail party. This is not to mention a litany of additional panel discussions regarding a diverse range of topics.
The topics will include these questions designed to imbue attendees with valuable insight and education about this evolving industry. The debates devised by industry experts are: Sports Betting: Which Model is Working Best?; Is Gaming Growing Responsibly?; The Best Things in Gaming Right Now Are …; State Regulators: Keeping Their Promise to Keep Pace; Whither iGaming? and Creating One Industry: Lotteries, Gaming.
The East Coast Gaming Congress & NexGen Gaming Forum is organized and produced by Cooper Levenson, Spectrum Gaming Group, Sports Illustrated Sportsbook and Esports Entertainment Group.
