Western Indian Gaming Conference: Feb. 24–26

TEMECULA, CA – The California Nations Indian Gaming Association (CNIGA) will be holding their 29th annual Western Indian Gaming Conference (WIGC) next week from February 24 through 26 at the Pechanga Resort Casino in Temecula, CA. The WIGC has proven to be one of the most informative conferences in Indian Country. More than 500 tribal leaders, regulators, government officials and industry professionals will be in attendance.

CNIGA Chairman James Siva will deliver the annual State of the Tribal Nations Address on Tuesday, February 24 at 9:00 a.m., outlining a current view of the tribal gaming industry, as well as the most pertinent issues affecting Indian Country in California. Following the address will be the WIGC’s general session. This year, it will feature multiple presentations and panels focusing on threats posed by the dubious use of predictions markets for sporting events, as well as a new California law banning online sweepstakes gambling.

In addition to the general session, a variety of subjects with unique-to-the-WIGC perspectives, including political, legal, regulatory, marketing, diversification, health and operational issues, will be featured in panel discussions throughout the conference.
