National Association of Gambling Studies Annual Conference

About this event

The NAGS Conference is Australia’s leading academic and industry forum dedicated to research, policy and practical insights across gambling, public health, regulation and consumer behavior. It brings together researchers, government agencies, treatment providers, regulators, operators and technology specialists who want a clear understanding of how evidence based approaches are shaping the future of gambling policy and harm minimization in Australia and beyond. The event highlights emerging trends in player behavior, digital transformation, responsible gambling frameworks and the social impact of new gaming technologies.

A core strength of the NAGS Conference is its research driven agenda. Sessions feature academics, clinicians and policymakers presenting real studies on gambling participation, risk factors, prevention strategies, regulatory effectiveness, product design, advertising impact and the role of data in shaping public policy. The conference also encourages cross sector dialogue, connecting scientific research with operational realities and regulatory expectations.

For organizations involved in gambling regulation, public health, research or industry operations, the NAGS Conference provides authoritative insights and a credible platform for knowledge exchange. It helps teams understand evolving evidence, refine responsible gambling strategies and contribute to informed decision making in a sector where social outcomes and regulatory integrity are central.
