Keeping Pace in a Fast-Moving Space
The rapid pace of technological change means that RG is constantly evolving as new opportunities to support players emerge. In this session, we will explore new strategies that make the most of these opportunities by providing easily implemented, scalable, engaging and interactive tools to help people manage their play. Attendees will learn how RG can be built into gambling products from the ground up, and what new tools they can use to enhance their RG offerings.
