John Levy, Founder and CEO of theScore, which operates the theScore Bet, said: "As the only media company in North America to go all-in and create and launch our own natively-built mobile sportsbook, I'm looking forward to sharing theScore's unique perspective on the opportunities presented by the ever-evolving US sports betting industry.

“SBC has once again assembled an incredible agenda for operators, suppliers, and regulators alike, and I'm excited to join my industry peers in what promises to be a hugely engaging and informative discussion."
