More than 18,000 industry professionals are expected to attend the three-day event that opens Oct. 10 and includes a series of educational sessions as well as a trade show with the newest slot machines and gaming industry technology.

In addition to Billings and Stevens, Jay Snowden, president and CEO of regional giant Penn Entertainment Inc., and Soo Kim, chairman of fast-growing Bally’s Corp., will appear with Amy Howe, CEO of FanDuel, and Jason Robins, founder and CEO of DraftKings.

The six corporate leaders will be interviewed by CNBC commentator Contessa Brewer.

During the three-part session, the executives will provide their outlook on business today, navigating headwinds and what the future holds.

Sponsored by the American Gaming Association, G2E’s opening keynote also will include an appearance by AGA President and CEO Bill Miller on the state of the gaming industry.
