New Horizons In Safer Gambling Conference 2026

November 2 - 4, 2026 JW Marriott Parq Vancouver, BC

The Disruption Paradox - Reinventing Safer Gambling

The gambling landscape is being reshaped by new technologies, shifting consumer expectations, emerging public health insights, and cross-industry convergences. Regulation and policy struggle to keep up, forcing us to rethink long held assumptions. 

What disruptions are impacting gambling today? 

How is gambling itself causing a disruption? 

As safer gambling leaders, how can we leverage disruption to help reshape a safer, more sustainable future? 

This year’s conference invites participants to examine disruption not as a threat, but as a catalyst for innovation, responsibility, and bold leadership. From AI driven solutions to the blending of gambling with gaming and entertainment, from regulatory transformations to cross-industry collaborations —these intersections demand new thinking and new kinds of leadership.

Join us at New Horizons as we explore how intentional, responsible disruption can reshape the future of safer gambling.
