Casinos in the Indian state of Goa will have to wait a little longer to learn if the government will maintain their operating licenses.

On Saturday, the government revealed the results of February’s election results, which showed the incumbent Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) falling from 21 seats to just 13 in the 40-member Assembly. Meanwhile, the opposition Congress party increased its presence to 17 seats, eight more than it won in the 2012 campaign.

With neither party winning an outright majority, a frantic race began to see whether BJP or Congress would be able to muster the support of a sufficient number of the smaller parties’ elected members to achieve the necessary 21-seat majority to form the next government.

The remaining 10 Assembly seats are divided as follows: the Goa Forward Party and the Maharashtravadi Gomantak Party (MGP) won three seats apiece, while three independent candidates won single seats and the final seat is held by the Nationalist Congress Party.

The fate of internet gambling legalization in Pennsylvania now lies in the hands of no less than U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions.

Sessions earlier said that he will take a close look at the Department of Justice (DOJ) opinion which paved the way for the states of New Jersey, Delaware, and Nevada to legalize internet gambling.

According to The Times-Tribune report, state lawmakers are trying to factor in the implications of the possible decision of Sessions to reverse the 2011 federal legal opinion that opened the door for states to embrace online gambling.

“Everyone is sort of waiting to hear what they (Justice) have to say,” said Rep. Aaron Kaufer, R-120, Kingston, a House panel member. “The concern is this could all be for naught for all we know.”

There was a time when the TV was my best mate.

I would fall through the front door after a day’s graft, grab a bottle of wine, and veg out in front of the thing as it made me laugh and cry in equal measure.

And then I sold it on Gumtree for £10.

Formulating a plan for monitoring and embracing emerging technology is more important in today’s fast-paced world than ever.  The iGaming industry prides itself on its cutting-edge technology, yet somehow we are lacking in innovation and staying on top of disruption such as Bitcoin and Blockchain.

In partnership with Clarion, GamCrowd’s Chris North and Ian Hogg have hand-crafted a two-day course designed to educate iGaming professionals in emerging technologies and how to proactively take advantage of the opportunities they bring.  To find out more about this Digital Transformation Academy taking place in Cambridge, UK on May 10-11, I spoke with North, an individual full of passion for disruptive technology touching the iGaming industry.

Becky Liggero: Thank you for joining me today, Chris.  Lets start with how the content covered during this academy will differ from what we are exposed to during emerging technology sessions at industry conferences?

Chris North: Businesses who are operate on legacy tech have some major challenges on their hands. I like to use the analogy of a Jumbo Jet which is in midflight making lots of money for the business but needs to be completely overhauled whilst still in the air, to me this illustrates the scale of the challenge businesses face.
