Previously, Asher was an attorney with Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom. Asher is a graduate of the University of Delaware and the Delaware Law School of Widener University, magna cum laude, served a judicial clerkship with the Supreme Court of Delaware and was admitted to the bar in Delaware and New York.

Conferences IGaming, a 100% virtual event, now has a launch date. It will take place on November 8, 2023, through its online platform.  This event promises to be a showcase for discussion and learning, addressing a series of exciting topics related to the world of iGaming, with its first edition focusing on Peru.

In this edition, five critical topics in the gaming industry will be addressed, including regulation, trends, eSports, Marketing Gambling, and user experience, among others. The conference is projected to become a vital meeting place for professionals and iGaming enthusiasts, allowing participants to delve into these key subjects and understand the ever-changing industry landscape in a digital format.

Regarding the participation of prominent panelists, Renzo Escalante, CEO of Play Advisors, one of the highlighted panelists at the event, shared his insightful observations: “Conferences IGaming is an excellent space to learn more about the industry and understand many processes that we often don’t know why they occur. Today, it is crucial to delve into certain topics to comprehend the industry’s movements. The era of empty strategies where players were few and easily recognizable is over; now, the universe is more extensive, and we are finally competing with the entire adult entertainment sector”.

That’s why we designed the virtual conferences to continue educating ourselves and exchanging ideas from anywhere in the world about the iGaming market and the best in the industry. We already appreciate everyone’s attendance; it will be a day full of knowledge”.
