A senior Clarion Gaming team led by Director of Industry Insight and Engagement, Ewa Bakun has been invited to speak at the Gaming in Spain conference, organised by Willem van Oort and taking place in Madrid on 26 June.
The presentation which will also see contributions from Clarion Gaming’s Liliana Costa, has the working title AI on ICE – cooperating with the Spanish and global research institutions to understand the impacts of Artificial Intelligence in the sector.
Looking ahead to the event Ewa Bakun said: “The invitation to speak at Gaming In Spain provides a perfect environment to officially introduce the ICE Research Institute which as part of its remit is funding academic exploration of AI ethics and applications in the gambling sector.
“As part of the relocation of ICE from London to Barcelona, Clarion Gaming together with Fira Barcelona have agreed a programme of collaboration with the objective of building a legacy which goes beyond the very significant economic impact of staging the world’s biggest gambling technology show in the city.
“An annual investment fund has been allocated with the ICE Research Institute (IRI) offering grants to scientific and academic institutions to fund research on prevention and sustainability.
“The IRI is investing in research that generates hard data and provides a robust scientific base to inform decision making. Working closely with institutional stakeholders both in Spain and on the international stage the ICE Research Institute will promote cross-border scientific cooperation to ensure the ethical adoption of AI in the gambling industry.”
Gaming in Spain founder Willem van Oort, creator of the successful Gaming in Holland and Gaming in Germany communities said: “Gaming In Spain provides essential business intelligence on the Spanish iGaming market and I am delighted to be able to include Ewa and colleagues from Clarion Gaming to provide an update on the work that’s being undertaken by the ICE Research Institute.
“The vision is to foster closer cooperation between research institutions and the industry resulting in evidence-based decisions and debates. The ethical adoption of AI in gambling is arguably one of the most contentious and topical debates impacting the industry and I am looking forward to learn more about the pioneering work being supported by the ICE Research Institute as part of the ICE Legacy Project.”
