Asian Expansion Specifics
The Asian market is certainly the next key expansion area for the online casino
industry – many of the major internet gambling companies have pointed to the
possibilities in the Asian market as an integral part of future development
efforts. To support these efforts and aid in the expansion into Asia, Clarion
Gaming has developed and successfully executed several annual I-Gaming
conferences. And as the online casinos industry has increasingly taken note of
the event and begun to send delegates, the event is now a recognized affiliate
event of the highly successful European I-Gaming Congress and Expo (EiG).
Though the Asian conference was previously hosted under brand of Pacific
Congress on I-Gaming, this year’s event will clearly denote the affiliation with
a similar name and abbreviation, specifically, the Asian I-Gaming Congress and
Expo (AiG). The 2008 event will be held in Macau at the brand-new Venetian
hotel, conference center, and land-based casino. Most in the industry predict
that all of the major online casinos and affiliated companies will send
delegates to the conference.
Considering that the Asian market is largely untapped and that there is
significant potential for online casino gambling developments, the conference
will focus on the logistics of the Asian expansion. And for those online casinos
companies that have attended the previous conference, the organizers have
expanded the offerings and the length of the event to include two extra one-day
seminars. One seminar will focus on investment strategies for the Asian
expansion, and the other on marketing within the diverse Asian regions.
Taking place February 26-29, 2008, the event is already in development and the
event planners promise a memorable year for the AiG. Information can be found
