Gaming and Sports Betting M&A Playbook in the Post-PASPA Era
Complimentary Live Webinar
Blank Rome Partner Dennis M.P. Ehling will be a panelist at the GeoComply / Spectrum Gaming Sports Group complimentary live webinar, “Gaming and Sports Betting M&A Playbook in the Post-PASPA Era,” taking place Thursday, September 20, 2018, from 8:00 to 9:00 a.m. PDT (11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. EDT).
The panel will discuss the effect the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act of 1992 (“PASPA”) repeal has had on M&A action with companies involved in the gaming and sports betting industry. From established gaming organizations looking to expand into online sports betting, to investment firms wanting to get a piece of the potentially lucrative market, M&A is now a part of everyone’s playbook. However, with limited opportunities for investors to find material exposure to the sports betting market, finding a way to put a bet on the success of this sector is not straightforward. The panel will present the latest M&A developments and what you need to know if you’re an acquirer or potential target.
