Caesars Sportsbook recently partnered with New York University’s School of Professional Studies for a unique educational experience focused on responsible gaming awareness. As part of the NYU x Caesars Sportsbook Real World class, graduate students were given the opportunity to engage with members of Caesars Entertainment’s creative and marketing teams while attending a thrilling New York Rangers versus Philadelphia Flyers game at Madison Square Garden. The collaboration aimed to foster understanding of business strategy and responsible gaming goals in New York State. Throughout the class, students developed their own responsible gaming marketing plans to effectively convey Caesars Sportsbook’s commitment to responsible gaming.
