  • A Friend Or Foe in the New Era of Sports and Gaming Competition?
    Wednesday, December 5, 2018 Sports Betting: A Friend or Foe in the New Era of Sports and Gaming Competition? Moderator: Scott Finley: CEO and Managing Director of Scott Finley International Racing Speakers: Scott J. Daruty: Executive Vice President Content & Media, The Stronach Group Bill Knauf: Vice President Business Operations, Monmouth Park Racetrack Dean McKenzie: Director, New Zealand Thoroughbred Racing Inc Sam Swanell: CEO, PointsBet Ms. Wendy Davis: Good. Let's continue on this theme. Let everybody get their coffee and come on back in. Basically, the second section, second session of our sports wagering panels this morning, "Friend or Foe in the New Era of Sports and Gaming Competition". First of all, I'd like to thank our session sponsor, which is Daily Racing Form and the Stronach Group for our beverage break. Leading the discussion for this panel is Scott Finley. He's CEO and managing director of Scott Finley International Racing. His background is in business development, marketing, technology deployment in the horse racing and betting industries. He's owned and managed his own international racing and betting consulting practice since 2002. This certainly makes him uniquely qualified to lead this discussion. I know they've spent a lot of time getting all these comments put together in a logical format here. I just mentioned to Dean he had requested that we have his PowerPoints available for you. If you would like to take them, I will have — there will be copies of those PowerPoints in the back of the room if you'd like to get those on your way out.
