Leading gambling law and regulation conference Regulating the Game has announced Dr Bo Bernhard, Vice President of Economic Development at the University of Nevada Las Vegas, as a headline speaker at its 2025 edition, to be held in Sydney from 10 to 13 March.
A well-known industry figure, Bernhard is also a fifth-generation Nevadan whose global work has taken him from the glitz of Las Vegas to South Africa, Europe, Japan, Singapore and beyond. A Harvard graduate with a double major in sociology and psychology, his groundbreaking research on the socio-economic impacts of the Las Vegas Strip set the stage for a distinguished international career.
Paul Newson, Principal at event organizer Vanguard Overwatch, said, “Having Dr Bo Bernhard share his insights at Regulating the Game 2025 will be electrifying. His unique global perspective is sure to enlighten, provoke thinking and inspire. This conference continues to set the bar high with unmatched speaker line-ups and content that tackles the sector’s most pressing issues.”
By 30, Dr Bernhard had delivered key research addresses on six continents. He later took on the role of Executive Director at the UNLV International Gaming Institute, where he expanded the organization to include four centers of excellence. In 2021, he became UNLV’s Vice President of Economic Development, spearheading projects at the Harry Reid Research and Technology Park, Black Fire Innovation hub, and UNLV Incubator.
“We find ourselves at a fascinating moment in the global economy, as industries like gaming, tourism, sports, and entertainment are blending, growing, and converging like never before,” said Dr Bernhard.
“This conference convenes the leading thinkers in gaming and adjacent sectors, and never has it been more timely or more important to gather leading experts in an effort to tackle some of the most challenging issues in our fast-developing world.”
The Regulating the Game conference is a flagship event that bridges the gap between regulators, industry professionals and stakeholders. The conference is dedicated to introducing expert content, inspiring discussion and debate about policy and sector issues, and driving innovation to support efficient and effective gambling regulation.
