The 2015 edition of Global Gaming Expo Asia (G2E Asia) recently became the largest edition to date. Returning last month (May 19-21) to The Venetian Macao, the show’s ninth edition closed its doors on yet another successful and record-breaking year.

G2E Asia 2015 recorded a record-breaking attendance of 10,095 visitors from 79 countries and regions, along with 185 exhibiting companies – at a 21% increase from 2014. Additionally demonstrating the event’s ever-expanding interest from abroad, 7,288 or 69% of G2E Asia 2015 visitors came from outside of Macau, at a 20% jump from the previous year. With each consecutive year, show visitorship has extended further beyond Asia’s borders.

“This year we introduced a number of new key initiatives to enhance visitors’ on-site experience,” said Keli Elkins, AGA vice president of industry relations. “A central facet of these changes was a much expanded non-gaming element to satisfy the booming demand for services and resorts that integrate the very best of gaming, entertainment and hospitality.”

“As Asia’s leading events organizer, we are committed to creating a better G2E Asia with each successive edition,” said Reed Exhibitions Greater China president Hu Wei. “Now, we look back on our first-ever edition of this show that hosted just under 3,000 with great nostalgia. Yet, it also serves as a reminder of not only how far we’ve come, but further motivates us to get bigger and better with each year. We’re already anticipating an even bigger, record-breaking show at G2E Asia 2016.”

London, 7th July 2015 – Clarion Events has announced that its World Regulatory Briefing (WrB) conference will return to London on 10th September 2015, bringing together the largest global gaming operators, regulators, and industry associations to discuss how to drive the adoption of responsible gambling and corporate responsibility.

WrB London will be one the first forums to translate the true value of a good reputation as well as how to implement a corporate social responsibility framework that creates shared value for all stakeholders involved – especially the players.

Sadie Walters, Senior Event Producer at Clarion Events, who is responsible for the conference programme, said: “The industry is really starting to become socially conscious as well as having to be compliant with responsible gambling regulation. WrB London will encourage a pan-European dialogue and essentially establish the link between responsible gambling and the bottom line.”

The likes of Ladbrokes, GamCare, Gala Coral and the UK Gambling Commission are confirmed speakers on the comprehensive programme and will share their experiences on topics such as player protection strategy, self-exclusion and self-regulation during the one-day event, which is strongly supported by the independent industry body, the Senet Group.

As an established hub for the Internet gambling industry, a Malta-based conference enjoys a deep pool of prospective expert speakers and high-level attendees from many of the top operators and suppliers. Making the most of both the locale and the audience, the annual Malta iGaming Seminar (MiGS) characterizes the success of the industry by design, using functional conference sessions and networking events that attract both the local and global audiences.

Conference Chair Sue Schneider, long renowned as the foremost expert on the industry and partner in organizing MiGS said, “This year’s programme is built around initiating and continuing conversations the influential people in the iGaming business need to have to be successful, while always being mindful of past lessons learned. We’re very excited by the line up of speakers we have confirmed to elevate these discussions”.

Seminar discussions will span topics that include areas of potential growth like mobile gaming and eSports, balanced with topics that take a more analytical look at challenges that hinder and opportunities that attract robust investment in the sector. A session that is poised to do some of both is titled “Sport and Betting: Working as One Team to Safeguard Mutual Survival”, which will touch on the most recent match-fixing news with the intent to offer concrete solutions to maintaining the integrity of sport when betting companies and league officials work together. The panel to address this topic will include officials with the International Olympic Committee, the Italian Police/Interpol, the Maltese Football Association, the Malta Gaming Authority and a former footballer and current ESPN Commentator, among others yet to be confirmed.

“A Century of iGaming” is another session to combine veteran experience with forward thinking, by joining some of the original industry personalities on a panel. Sharing their perspectives from their initial forays into iGaming to their current industry endeavors, these CEOs will opine about what new products, geographies, operational methods and consolidations have caught their attention. With over 100 years experience in iGaming sitting on the dais, it’s inevitable that the discussion will be lively and spirited when such varying viewpoints are brought together.
