download on the company’s website. Now, it goes further, expanding its vision to 2050, exploring topics such as predictive artificial intelligence, quantum cryptocurrencies, and neurais interfaces.

“With so many changes happening, we noticed many questions and few answers. How will technology impact the player experience? How can operators and regulators prepare? These are some of the questions that guided us in this study. Now, with this in hand, we can fulfill our goal of providing information and predictive scenarios that offer strategic guidance for operators, regulators, and global stakeholders,” states Fernandes.

In this exclusive SBC presentation, Oddsgate’s CMO will reveal the study’s key findings for the first time. Attendees will also be able to access the complete material firsthand before its official release.
