It is not easy to do business these days. But I think that we shouldn’t say crisis! We’d better call this time “TIME OPENED FOR NEW ENHANCED OPPORTUNITIES”. Recent events in Gambling industry life proves that I’m absolutely right.
Global Gaming Expo, held November 18-20th, 2008 , at the Las Vegas Convention Center showed no depression. “While it’s true that the current economic downturn is a challenge the likes of which our industry has not seen before, the positive feedback we have received from our exhibitors and attendees is evidence that G2E 2008 has been a real success story,” said Frank J.Fahrenkopf, Jr., president and CEO of the American Gaming Association. And that’s true: G2E 2008 attracted a total of 724 exhibitors, including 117 exhibitors from countries outside the U.S. A significant increase in international attendance, attracting 3,901 attendees from 89 different countries, an increase of 11 percent over 2007 international attendance numbers, have been seen. This year’s attendees came from Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Ecuador, Finland, Hong Kong, India, Ireland, Latvia, Malaysia, New Zealand, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, the Russian Federation, Singapore, South Africa, Taiwan, Turkey, the United Kingdom, and others.
So, as far as you can see, gambling industry is one of those which are trying to obtain as much as possible from the situation we have. Keep faith!
