CONFERENCE CORNER

The company is busy putting together the Poker Summit North America convention, which will take place at the Ritz Carlton in Montreal on October 3 and 4 this year.  It may be starting to get a little chilly in the Great White North by then, but we are assured that the trip will be worth it!

The idea behind Poker Summit North America is to bring together people from the diverse and interesting sectors that make up the overall poker industry. The organisers want to see representatives from online poker businesses, land-based casinos, iTV and the marketing industry all coming together to discuss regulations for poker, marketing campaigns, customer retention and a host of other topics that are of management and operational interest.

The speaker list, which is still abuilding includes: David Carruthers, BetonSports chief executive; Jeffrey Haas, Ongame Network director of product management; Liam Casey, Sports Interaction casino and poker manager; Mickey Charles, The Sports Network president and CEO; and Congressman Jim Kaster, North Dakota House of Representatives.
