The three operators – Camelot, Sazka, and Sugal & Damani – that have placed their hat in the ring for the UK Gambling Commission’s tender for a fourth National Lottery licence are examined in the final 2020 issue of SBC Leaders, formerly known as SBC Magazine, which is now available to view online HERE.
An exclusive interview with Snaitech CEO Fabio Schiavolin kicks off the final SBC Leaders issue of the year, as he opened up on adapting his approach to leading the Italian multichannel operator through the pandemic.
However, he’s far from the only leader to feature this time, as we hear from Casey Clark, SVP for Strategic Communications at American Gaming Association, on the fight to turn sports bettors against illegal operators. Are we doing better than expected?
Meanwhile, Betsson’s Andrea Rossi (Commercial Director for Southern Europe and Latin America), is looking to the future, as he explains why the momentum shared by the betting industry and football (post-lockdown) has given a glimpse into the ‘successful coexistence’ for operators and teams in the region.
