Happening on the 10th of September 2019, at the InterContinental Arena Conference Centre, iGaming NEXT is the go-to, one day, one venue event for the industry’s key decision makers. An exclusive concept where next-generational ideas, products and technologies will be revealed, iGaming NEXT is a one-stop-shop for iGaming suppliers, operators and media. Bringing together some 700 delegates, iGaming NEXT will present six of the largest, tier-1 iGaming suppliers, who will take to the stage in 20-minute slots. To add to the significance of the day, Dhiraj Mukherjee, Shazam co-founder and experienced digital business executive with a proven track record in both corporate and start-up environments, has just been confirmed as celebrity keynote speaker at the event.
Pierre Lindh, Founder, iGaming Idol commented, “We are excited and proud to have Dhiraj Mukherjee, one of the world’s most influential tech entrepreneurs with us for our first edition of iGaming NEXT. One of the goals of this conference is to inspire the iGaming industry by hosting influential professionals and innovators from outside of the industry, to help the iGaming industry take the next leap into the future of innovation. Having a name like Dhiraj with us certainly gives our first edition of iGaming NEXT a push in that direction and I personally am very excited to hear Dhiraj’s keynote!”
