CONFERENCE CORNER

13 March 2009

Taxation, fair distribution of revenue and self-regulation

 

These issues are perenially red-hot topics, and Clarion Gaming intends to address then at its next European Gambling Briefing, scheduled for 22-23 April 2009 in Budapest.

Included on the agenda are the legal challenges to OPAP, Svenska Spel, the Dutch Ministry of Justice v Betfair and other individual legal battles taking place across Europe.

Has this litigation stagnated or is there the prospect of resolutions in the next year or so?

Do you know what the repercussions will be for your company and jurisdiction? Even where a decision is not in your sovereign territory?

And when was the last time you managed to sit down for an intimate talk with 8 government or regulatory decision makers, over 10 of Europe's top gaming lawyers, and over 100 operators, consultants, monopolies and media editors to get an unrivalled, detailed view of the regulatory landscape in Europe today?

Answers at EGB Budapest...in April.

CAC Amsterdam will have plenty to talk about

The momentous events and changes currently sweeping through the affiliate world will undoubtedly provide affiliate programs and affiliate marketers themselves with ample stimulus for conversations at the next big affiliate bash - the 7th annual Amsterdam Casino Affiliate Convention, which takes place March 30-31 at the NH Grand Krasnapolsky Hotel in the colourful Dutch city.

Organiser Marc Lesnick says that his company has finalised the agenda, which can be found at http://www.cac2009.com/agenda-amsterdam-2009.php, and that he anticipates that a good program, allied to the networking opportunities and the topicality of recent affiliate developments will bring out a record attendance. Last year saw a thousand delegates at the event.

"Apart from Gary Beal's 3 hour intense SEO session, we have our traditional advanced and informative European gaming sessions on Analytics, Web 2.0, and Video Advertising, Lesnick said this week. "CAC Amsterdam will also have the Black Hat/White Hat session and discussions on ethics in the industry."

Lesnick stressed that the get-together is free for all affiliates who are members of the GPWA, Poker Affiliate Listings and Affiliate Guard Dog, from which it appears that CAC intends to cock a snoot at the Casino Affiliate Programs organisation.
