Cybersecurity Focus: Beyond Compliance
A three-part series helping leaders move from ticking boxes to building resilience.
Hosted in partnership with Firesand and guided by cybersecurity expert Alexis Cheshire, this series combines digital roundtables with practical action planning. Participants confront real challenges: board-level accountability, insider threats, vendor vulnerabilities, and rapid response strategies.
Why Vertical Focus Events Matter
The gambling industry faces pressure on every front: regulatory complexity, technological disruption, talent shortages, cybersecurity threats, and shifting consumer expectations. Generalist conferences can’t address these challenges with the depth practitioners need.
Vertical Focus Events deliver specialist knowledge, cross-sector perspectives, and practical tools that help leaders move from reactive compliance to proactive leadership in their domains.
