2024 Gaming & Leadership Conference

Thank you to everyone who came along to the Gaming & Leadership Conference at the Western Sydney Conference Centre at Penrith in May.

 
This year’s theme was ‘Beyond Boundaries: Sustainable Futures, Inspiring Growth’ with the aim of pushing the limits of conventional thinking in the gaming industry – and I think we achieved that over the two days.
 
Special thanks to the RSL & Services Clubs Association for co-hosting this event with LCA, and to our conference partner IGT Gaming
 
Thank you to our host Rabs, and to all of our guest speakers and panellists, who provided insightful and inspiring ideas and opinions.
 
Thank you to the Western Sydney Conference Centre for hosting the event, to the Pullman Hotel and Mercure Penrith for hosting our overnight guests, and to Brian Fletcher and the team at Penrith Panthers for your hospitality.
 
Thank you to Paynter Dixon who provided lunch on both days, to Big Screen Video who put on morning tea, and to our beverage sponsors Carlton & United Breweries, Coca Cola Amatil Australia, Campari and Treasury Wine Estates who catered the cocktail party.
 
And a special shout out to the Hennessy Coffee team who kept us all caffeinated over the two days!
 
It’s wonderful to see so many of our industry representatives coming together to learn about new developments and improve the way we do things for our members and guests.
