Panel Discussion: Moderator: Tom Delacenserie, Chief Executive Officer, Kentucky Lottery 'Lottery Modernization So much to do, so little time'

Panel Discussion: Lottery Modernization So much to do, so little time. Building the online presence and out-reach; Digitizing and modernizing at Retail, New game development, Cashless payment options, IT and operational upgrades, Etc., Etc. Resources are limited and trade-offs are being made.
How do we compare and assess the ROI of different options and decide where to allocate limited capital and human resources? Do we need an investment strategy or is it more about just “doing the do-able”?
How should Lottery prioritize the long “to-do” list of modernizing initiatives?
How are technology and modernization initiatives making Lottery more accessible and more convenient to play?
