Ever since the US Department of Justice's decision in late 2011 that clarified the government's understanding of the Wire Act of 1961, online game developers and land-based casinos alike have been getting increasingly excited about the possibility of bringing regulated online gambling to a US audience. Now two years later, only three states have some form of online gambling. Derrick Morton, CEO and Founder of Vegas World, will discuss why he's not in a hurry to get into real money gambling. He'll describe why the existing opportunities in the social casino space are still in the early stages and point out the even bigger opportunities he sees in the fully regulated space even while still staying social. 

Delivered at Casual Connect Europe, February 2014
