Global Gaming Expo

Well, congratulations as well on getting named into the next cohort at Zero Labs.

I do know, and through talking to a lot of people, there is a bit of unfortunate circumstance with the timing of the SPC conference in Lisbon and the Zero Labs cohort in Vegas, which usually sits alongside the G2E conference.

Sounds like you're going to try and do both.

Tell us real quickly about just your travel plans to do that.

Exactly.

G2E is rolling into town in a couple of weeks.

We have invites to several of the booths.

And we're going to get to

Again, I am so grateful for this opportunity you have provided us today, and I am truly looking forward to seeing the innovation that we have coming and hopefully see more states expand in the years ahead.

You, of course, can get in touch with anyone at Games Global by going to our website at gamesglobal.com. And in a very, very short time, we will all be at G2E, which seems to come around quicker every year.

We are always happy to talk more about our goals, our intentions, and the future of Games Global and how we can continue to help level up the industry as a whole.

No, but definitely a big thank you, guys.

It's a lot going on.

And I think, you know, when we think about transformation, I think, you know, one of the areas I'm really interested to talk about today is we're heading into as we record this, we're heading into a G2E conference where, you know, when I was there last year, there's a story I've told a lot, which is I was walking down like, you know, if you picture yourself at any trade show, there's that line of all the rooms of all the trainings and sessions.

And as I was walking by when I saw these two people come out and the one person said the other, Oh, my God.

Another thing about AI.

[laughs]

No, this is the pre-G2E episode.

Mm-hmm.

This is the episode that everyone will listen to, and by everyone, I mean the few people-

the neighbors.

Yeah.

They will listen to ahead of G2E.

Yeah, and the thousands and thousands of MaxBet viewers on the center.

So this is exciting for us.

We tried to have her on a G2E podcast, but our audio, of course, didn't work.

So I think

I think, no, we're doing it justice because I think she deserves this conversation.

So I've been part of the organization for a few years now, and it is with great pride that I get to be on the mentorship committee.

And I have great joy actually supporting that initiative and really working for mentorship for women in gaming because there is such a need in that area.

So it's everything in that space of covering our Lean In program, our Circle program, one up, one down, connecting mentors to mentees, and everything in between, including some G2E work, which is up and coming.

And I'm very, very excited about what my colleague Megan has under the hood prepared for G2E.

We all know.

I decided we should just make up our own awards, and we'll put them out, and everyone will get a very underwhelming fridge magnet at G2E if I see them.

If you're on this list and you would like your magnet, Please chase me down.

So this list is very comprehensive.

No. It's automatically him.

It's pure class.

I met him, I think, at about 1 in the morning last G2E at some random...

The Carousel Bar.

Measured over 10 years instead of one, that guess is in the database you still have in 2035 when a lot of your current core has aged out of the building entirely.

I'm building out a full session on this exactly for G2E in September, so consider this segment a little preview.

Now your fourth component is people.

But before we get to your people, I want to go back and finish something I only mentioned at the top.

This is actually their third annual Tribal Leadership Council Fairway Classic.

And this is being held in Vegas in conjunction with G2E.

So all of those attending G2E out there, if you want to fly in a day early, get some golf in and also support a great organization as well, I would encourage you to look them up.

And last we have here is what we discussed with Judy, and that is the 30th anniversary of the Nahara Annual Conference.

That will be held on September 28th through September 30th at the Hilton Hawaii Village and Waikiki Beach Resort in Honolulu.
