Regulating the Game launches new tiered sponsorship program for 2027 event in Sydney
Leading Australian gambling law and regulation forum Regulating the Game has unveiled a new sponsorship structure for its 2027 event in Sydney, structured across four different sponsorship tiers with the organizer says provides clearer alignment with the conference, the RTG Global Awards and the delegate experience.
The four tiers are Principal Partner, Signature Partners, Pillar Partners and Activation Partners.
Paul Newson, Principal at Vanguard Overwatch and Founder of Regulating the Game, said the revised architecture follows strong engagement in 2026 and reflects the expanded scope of the 2027 program, which includes a broader conference agenda and the expansion of the RTG Global Awards from six to 12 categories.
Regulating the Game 2027 Sydney will be held from 8 to 10 March 2027 at the Sofitel Sydney Wentworth, with the RTG Global Awards presentation on 9 March 2027.
Sponsorship tier details are as follows:
Principal Partner: The lead partner of the Regulating the Game 2027 program, with prominence across the conference, the Global Awards and the delegate journey. Reserved as a singular position.
Signature Partners: A small group of premium partners aligned with flagship program elements, including Pitch!, the Global Awards Gala Dinner and other headline moments of the 2027 program.
Pillar Partners: Partners aligned with the core thematic pillars of the Regulating the Game program: regulation and policy, compliance and integrity, safer gambling, and technology and innovation.
Activation Partners: Partners supporting specific delegate touchpoints and experiences across the program, with visibility tied to defined activations.
The expanded 2027 awards program – with six new categories including Black Market Disruption Initiative, Sport & Wagering Integrity Initiative, Research Impact, Gambling Harm Prevention Campaign, Compliance Advisory and Distinguished Contribution – broadens the recognition framework across the sector.
“The 2027 architecture reflects the maturity of the Regulating the Game program – a global conference, an expanded awards program and a delegate community that spans regulators, sector leaders, technology and research across multiple jurisdictions,” said Newson.
“Partners increasingly want a clearer line of sight to value, audience and alignment. The four-tier model is designed to provide that – fewer overlapping propositions, clearer category positioning and partnerships that map to how the program is actually experienced by delegates.”
Newson added that Partnership conversations for the 2027 program are now open, with organizations interested in any of the four tiers invited to make contact through Regulating the Game to discuss alignment, availability and entitlements.
