Regulating the Game 2026 Announces CherryHub and Ebet as RegTech Sponsors

Regulating the Game 2026 has welcomed its first joint sponsors, CherryHub and Ebet, two Australian companies driving transformation across the gaming and hospitality sectors.

Now in its sixth edition, Regulating the Game has cemented its reputation as the premier gambling law and regulation conference. Returning to Sydney in March 2026, the event will again bring together global regulators, industry pioneers and compliance professionals for three dynamic days of policy and sector dialogue, strategic insights and capability building.

The programme will span high-impact keynotes and panel sessions addressing regulatory challenges, financial crime and public policy reform; innovation showcases exploring AI, RegTech and emerging technology; and deep dives into safer gambling, risk management and compliance uplift.

With expert-led masterclasses and the return of Pitch!, now hosted at the iconic Yallamundi Rooms at the Sydney Opera House, Regulating the Game 2026 will “continue to shape the future of not only effective and leading-edge gambling regulation, but also a forward-thinking, innovative, and socially responsible industry,” the organisers noted.

Frank Makryllos, Managing Director and CEO of Ebet, said: “Regulating the Game plays a critical role in fostering the collaboration and thought leadership our industry needs. As suppliers, Ebet and Cherry Hub are committed to equipping venues with practical tools to manage risk, support safer gambling practices, and meet evolving regulatory expectations, including AML/CTF and financial crime compliance.”

Paul Newson, Principal at Vanguard Overwatch and founder of Regulating the Game, said: “CherryHub and Ebet represent the innovation and integrity we seek to champion through Regulating the Game. Their support reflects a strong alignment with our mission to promote evidence-led policy, ethical leadership, and safer gambling outcomes.”

With a refreshed agenda, an expanded Exhibition Showcase, and the return of the Pitch! Challenge, Regulating the Game 2026 is “set to raise the bar once again, fostering critical dialogue, driving collaboration, and advancing not only regulatory excellence but also a vibrant, innovative, and ethically led industry,” the organisers concluded.
