In its fourth edition, the Summit adopts for the first time a focus on the critical intersection between sports integrity and emerging technologies, bringing together government leaders, sports federations, athletes, operators, and industry innovators to address the ever-evolving challenges and opportunities in the sector.
With the Brazilian betting market now legalized and regulated, the event will include dynamic discussions on the effectiveness of current regulatory frameworks, the transformative potential of sports technologies, and innovative strategies to protect integrity in sport.
Global sports giants including the Premier League, CBF, Conmebol, and the NFL will share best practices and insights on the evolution of sports technology, the fight against illegal betting, and the defense of fair play.
Participants will explore global best practices, share insights into industry trends, and collaborate on forward-looking solutions that promote fairness, transparency, and trust in sports.
Through expert panels and interactive sessions, attendees will gain valuable perspectives on the shifting landscape of sports integrity and contribute to the development of sustainable and ethical approaches across the industry.
Event highlights include:
*Innovations in Brazilian sports betting, helping operators combat the illegal market
*Live demonstration of the Premier League’s innovative semi-automated offside technology (SAOT)
*Evolution of Brazil's betting regulatory framework and its role in protecting sports integrity
*The growing role of AI-powered bet monitoring and advanced data analysis in detecting corruption

“We are proud to provide a platform to promote a fair and transparent sports landscape in Brazil. This year’s focus is on how cutting-edge sports technology can be a game-changer in the fight against illegal betting and corruption. We’re bringing together some of the most experienced voices in sport, tech, and regulation and are excited about the collaborations and insights that will emerge,” said Dominic Le Moigan, Executive Director of GovRisk.
