Gaming Laboratories International (GLI) has become a Diamond-Elite Sponsor of the International Association of Gaming Regulators (IAGR), reaffirming the company’s longstanding support for regulatory education and international collaboration in gaming oversight.

Through this sponsorship, GLI will support IAGR’s year-round work and will lead the 2026 IAGR Annual Conference in Lima, Peru, from October 19-22, 2026, which will feature a half-day GLI Regulators Workshop. The workshop will offer practical, technical, and operational risk-control education for regulators, with particular emphasis on issues important to Latin American regulators.

In addition to the workshop, GLI will support IAGR’s expanding program of work by making subject matter experts available, as needed, to assist the IAGR Technology Working Group and Model Rules Committee. These initiatives are intended to strengthen regulatory effectiveness, improve coordination across jurisdictions, and help regulators respond to emerging risks and technologies.

“GLI has supported IAGR and the global regulatory community for decades, and we are proud to deepen that commitment through this Diamond-Elite Sponsorship. IAGR’s work is expanding rapidly in ways that are highly aligned with our own long-standing focus on regulatory education, technical excellence, and practical support for regulators. We are especially pleased to contribute programming in Lima that will provide actionable value for regulators, including content tailored to the priorities of Latin American jurisdictions,” said GLI President and CEO James R. Maida.

“We are grateful to GLI for its consistent support of IAGR and for the high-quality programming it has delivered over many years. This sponsorship reflects a shared commitment to stronger regulatory cooperation and to equipping regulators with practical tools and knowledge to address emerging challenges,” said Ben Haden, President of IAGR.

Approximately 300 regulators from 16 countries attended the 26th annual Regulators Roundtable presented by Gaming Laboratories International (GLI). The event was hosted April 15-16 at the Palms Las Vegas.

The topics covered were as diverse as the attendees and included artificial intelligence, asset protection, cashless gaming, cyber resilience, digital responsible gaming interventions, geolocation, lottery modernization, patron protection, prediction markets, risk analysis, and sports betting.

Sports performance psychologist and author of Life as Sport Dr. Jonathan Fader delivered the keynote address. He spoke about how proven sport-performance psychology applies to the realities of today’s workplace, including high expectations, constant change, and pressure to perform.

In addition to the presentations and breakout sessions, GLI hosted an Innovation Tech Hub, which featured live demonstrations from Bulletproof, EPIC Global Solutions, Evive, GLI University, Kobetron, KOIN, and Marker Trax.

“We are grateful to the approximately 300 regulators from across North America and around the world who came to Las Vegas to learn more about what’s next and what’s on the horizon in gaming technology. It is important for regulators to stay as far ahead of technologies and issues as possible, and that is the purpose of the Regulators Roundtable, and we are honored to present the conference,” said GLI President & CEO, James Maida.

GLI announced the next Regulators Roundtable will take place April 7-8, 2027, at the Palms Las Vegas.
