SPECIAL BRIEFINGS
Can online gambling be regulated and taxed?
23 OCTOBER 2003 LONG BEACH HILTON | CALIFORNIA
27 OCTOBER 2003 CAPITAL HILTON | WASHINGTON DC
Regulators, legislators, government officials, operators, software suppliers, analysts and advisors will meet in Long Beach, Southern California on 23 October and at Washington DC on Monday 27 October at Special Briefings organised by World Online Gambling Law Report to discuss the regulation and taxation of online gambling.
The Special Briefing will explain how online gaming and sports books operate. Expert speakers will examine the key issues that drive the discussion on online gambling including, money laundering, problem gambling and under-age gambling.
Experts will discuss whether you can know your client with remote gambling, whether online casino software can be tested and verified to ensure that games are fair.
"The aim of the Special Briefings is to address the key issues that have been raised in the debate on online gambling", said Lindsey Greig, managing editor of World Online Gambling Law Report.
"Whatever you view of online gambling, this Special Briefing will provide you with a unique source of objective information and analysis to inform your judgment," Greig said.
"The main focus of the discussion in Congress and much of the media has been on prohibition. We thought the debate would benefit by examining the arguments for regulation, particularly those from jurisdictions such as the UK."
The briefing will provide a unique opportunity for gaming industry leaders and advisors to discuss the issues with legislators, state regulators and government officials at a crucial time in the development of the US and international regulatory structure
Regulators from the tier one jurisdictions will speak on their experience of trying to regulate remote gambling.
Blue chip companies and operators who have experience of both land and online gambling, will share their experience of the online world.
