The SBC Summit Americas will be held from June 9th to 11th, 2026, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The event will bring together operators, regulators, and policymakers to explore in depth state-level compliance issues in the gambling field.
The meeting’s primary goal is to provide guests with a thorough understanding of current legal standards and enforcement trends. The program will allow professionals to share experiences and discuss adhering to laws in the region.
Part of the Show’s Preliminary Calendar
One of the tracks stands out among other anticipated offers — North America Regulation & Compliance. This section will focus on common legal frameworks and address growing oversight pressure, as well as the emergence of new formats that do not fit into standard classifications. This category will be divided into several sessions, each exploring case studies.
SBC’s Founder and CEO noted that, for a long time, industry supervision has been viewed from the wrong perspective. In Rasmus Sojmark's opinion, businesses should stop perceiving rules as constraints and start seeing them as a foundation for growth and scalability. At the summit, attendees will explore the benefits of compliance as a key brand differentiator.
Let us share some details about the track’s 4 panels:
The M&A Playbook
This session will focus on strategic acquisition deals, iGaming affiliates, and ways to transform enterprises into more appealing targets for merger-oriented offers. Experts will discuss metrics that make projects stand out in a saturated, fiercely competitive environment.
The list of speakers comprises:
- Jefferies LLC’s Andrew Zarnett;
- Atlas World Sports' Robert Kraft;
- Third Planet Media’s Adam Small.
Regulators Rising
The panel will feature the following prominent figures:
- Delaware North’s Lee Terfloth;
- Level Media’s William Griffiths;
- Louisiana Department of Justice’s Dawn Himel.
The specialists will examine how operators are adapting to the evolving legal landscape. They also plan to explore the implications of new formats, such as prediction markets.
Innovation vs. Regulation
Among the invited speakers are:
- Betr’s Matt Kane;
- RCCB LLC’s Evan Davis;
- Prime Sports' Joe Brennan.
The delegates will discuss the supervisory and ethical uncertainties associated with emerging betting verticals. Case studies on balancing innovative solutions with traditional oversight compliance will be a key focus of the session.
Crackdown on Unregulated Gaming
Confirmed names to explore the situation are:
- Jon Ford, Indiana’s former Senator;
- George Rover from Princeton Global Strategies;
- Carl Herold, representing Florida’s Gaming Control Commission.
The experts will share their opinions on the effectiveness of campaigns to combat offshore operators. The session will help examine popular methods for identifying uncertified portals and the specifics of state-level regulatory response.
Expectations from the 2026 Edition
Oversight and compliance will be key topics at the summit. They are a cornerstone of the entire show, far beyond the track dedicated to the gambling business in North America.
Guests will be able to discuss the latest legal trends and shifts regarding:
- online payments;
- cryptocurrency supervision;
- event-based betting, and other areas.
The meeting’s organisers expect to host over 10,000 industry participants this year. Such a large scale indicates the prestige and importance of the annual gathering.
