As NCLGS enters its 30th year, we are honored to share a message from our founder, Steve Geller, recently published in the March issue of Global Gaming Business. His reflections remind us why NCLGS was created and how its mission continues to evolve alongside the gaming industry.

NCLGS will celebrate its 30th anniversary throughout 2026, including at its Summer Meeting, July 8–11 at the Hard Rock Hotel San Diego. Registration is now open, with early-bird discounts available. Sponsorship opportunities are also available for this milestone event.

NCLGS is the only organization of state lawmakers that meets on a regular basis to discuss gaming-related issues. The NCLGS semiannual meetings, which are open to the public, attract numerous state legislators as well as regulators, gaming operators and suppliers, attorneys, lobbyists, media, and other stakeholders to discuss all aspects of regulated gaming, as well as the risk implications of unregulated gaming. NCLGS meetings are proudly produced and organized by Spectrum Gaming Group, which serves as Executive Director.
