The BSA-AML Compliance Group announced the return of the Annual BSA/AML Gaming Conference, the most respected and comprehensive anti-money laundering compliance event in the gaming industry. The 2025 conference will be held at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas from September 9–11, with a dedicated “Fundamentals Day” on Monday, September 8 for newer professionals or those seeking a refresher in core BSA/AML principles.

Headline Keynotes and Distinguished Guests Announced

This year’s event features presentations from some of the most influential figures in financial crime enforcement and policy:

Guy Ficco, Chief of IRS-Criminal Investigation (CI), who oversees a global agency of more than 3,200 employees and 2100 special agents. In his keynote address, Chief Ficco will provide insights into the critical role of Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) and Currency Transaction Reports (CTRs) in federal investigations. He will also highlight CI’s role in recent, high-profile financial crime cases.

Carole House, former Director for Cybersecurity and Secure Digital Innovation at the White House National Security Council and senior advisor at FinCEN, will deliver a keynote exploring the intersection of AML compliance, national security, and emerging technology. A leader in cybersecurity and digital asset policy, Ms. House will speak to the future of risk, regulation, and innovation.

For the first time ever, the 2025 conference will host two former Directors of the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) — the bureau of the U.S. Treasury responsible for enforcing the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA). They will share unique perspectives on how BSA policy has evolved over time and what the future holds for AML regulation for the gaming sector. Several other high-level government officials – state and federal, civil, regulatory, and criminal – will be announced in the near future.

The BSA/AML Gaming Conference continues to be the leading annual forum for compliance professionals in the gaming industry. Last year’s event welcomed more than 550 attendees from 39 states, three foreign countries, dozens of tribes, and over 160 gaming entities, with overwhelmingly positive feedback about speaker access, practical insights, and cross-sector networking.

The conference will also feature in-depth studies of recent enforcement actions, emerging issues involving know-your-customer and source of funds, a presentation regarding data analysis and player risks, and new and unregulated gaming models. As in previous years, it will highlight on emerging risks, new illicit finance typologies, and actionable compliance solutions.

“Our goal has always been to bring together the best minds from government and industry to share real-world solutions. With keynote speakers like Guy Ficco and Carole House, and the participation of former FinCEN Directors, this year’s event will be our most impactful yet,” said James Dowling, Co-Founder of the BSA-AML Compliance Group and President and Managing Director of the Dowling Advisory Group.

Context Networks Rolls Out Deep Intelligence Marketing Strategy

Context Networks Inc, the first programmatic advertising platform engineered for the gaming industry, announced the rollout of its groundbreaking Deep Intelligence Marketing strategy, redefining how brands engage consumers in bars, taverns, and on-premise slot route operations. Leveraging the power of AI-driven data analytics, machine learning, and context-aware digital couponing, Context Networks is turning local venues into the next frontier of high-impact retail media.

Through its Contextual Promotions Media Network (CPMN), Context is converting digital screens—such as slot machines in bars—into dynamic, smart advertising surfaces. These systems use advanced data signals to deliver highly targeted promotions based on real-time factors like venue type, consumer behavior, time of day, and even emotional context, moving far beyond traditional static or cyclic Digital Out-of-Home (DOOH) advertising.

“At Context Networks, we see a future where advertising isn’t just present—it’s personally relevant. Deep Intelligence Marketing allows us to understand and respond to the emotional, behavioral, and environmental signals from the casino patron when they’re at the machine, allowing the mass personalization of contextual ads to be presented to each individual consumer in real time, delivering campaigns that truly resonate,” said Douglas Abbott, Chief Marketing Officer of Context Networks.

Key features of Deep Intelligence Marketing include:

• Emotionally Tuned Advertising: Ads dynamically adjust based on audience mood, time, and activity—engaging patrons when they are most receptive.

• Precision Targeting: Context Networks treats the environment as a targeting signal, ensuring that the right message meets the right patron at the right time.

• Integrated Digital Coupons: Real-time QR codes embedded within ads allow patrons to claim personalized offers instantly, seamlessly connecting screen engagement to mobile interaction.

• Enhanced Metrics: Real-time dashboards provide advertisers with pixel-level tracking and engagement analytics, delivering the same performance insight expected from digital campaigns.

Bars and taverns—environments with regular clientele and prolonged social engagement—offer an ideal proving ground for this transformative approach. Early results suggest that coupling CPMN displays with QR code-driven digital coupons dramatically increases engagement, purchase rates, and brand loyalty compared to traditional DOOH approaches.

Context Networks is actively building a network of national and regional advertisers across key consumer categories—including beer, wine, spirits, rideshare, food and beverage, and other lifestyle brands—who recognize the value of reaching consumers in highly personal, real-world environments.

“Today’s consumers expect experiences, not just ads. By bringing AI, behavioral analysis, and real-time environmental awareness together in Deep Intelligence Marketing, we’re helping brands create high-intensity, high-relevance moments with their audiences,” said Matt Olden, CEO of Context Networks.
