Leading experts will give voice to a “Certification Roundtable” on Monday, October 1 at 12:45 p.m. As operators push hard for certification of devices and systems to GSA standards, challenges still exist. In this session, experts will help operators and suppliers find common ground to help bring the concept of certification to reality. GSA President, Peter DeRaedt, moderates panelists:
• Dave Daniels, Senior Director of Engineering, GLI

• Mark Pace, VP of Networked Gaming Engineering and Operations, WMS
• Russ Ristine, President, Radical Blue Gaming
• Jeff Wyton, Chief Information Officer & Executive Director of Information Services & Technology, Alberta Gaming and Liquor Commission
Then at 2:30 p.m. on Monday, GSA turns its attention to iGaming as Mario Galea, President of Random Consulting, leads attendees in a 30,000-foot look at how standards can help new operators, suppliers and regulators avoid common pitfalls.
Then, GSA holds its Annual Meeting on Wednesday, October 3 at 11 a.m. This important annual event brings together the top thinkers in the industry for a gathering that helps chart the course of the industry’s future. This year Spielo International COO Victor Duarte keynotes, answering the question of how GSA standards have translated into success in the Canadian gaming market and how others can follow the example.
