Visitors from an estimated 20 nations are expected in Macau next week for the second Macao Gaming Show and co-located Macao Gaming Summit, both of which are taking place at The Venetian (18th-20th November). The exhibition has attracted a record 146 companies, up 30 percent on the 2013 figures.
Previewing the credentials of the 2nd Macao Gaming Show whose mission statement is 'By Asia, For The World', Jay Chun, Chairman of the trade body MGEMA, one of the main driving forces behind the exhibition, said: “An exhibition is nothing without exhibitors, and visitors to MGS will have access to the very best exponents in their fields covering the six sectors of Gaming Equipment & Accessories, Gaming Promoters & VIP Clubs, Casino Fixtures & Fittings, Promotional Services & Memorabilia, Food & Beverage and Entertainment & Performance. In addition, we will also have events and features including the highly popular Slot Experience Centre as well as the Macao Gaming Summit. In addition to receiving widespread commercial and government support from within Macao, we have also attracted a distinguished international line-up of thought leaders who will be focusing on key gaming topics and how they impact both established and emerging nations including Japan, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Korea, Sri Lanka as well as Macao."
A feature which is unique to Macao Gaming Show is its ability to attract VIP Junket Groups, five of which will be at this year's event. Explaining the significance of this, Jay Chun said: "The organising team at MGS is considered insiders of the Asian gaming industry which means that we are able to attract influential companies that don't attend shows that are perceived as being organised by 'outsiders'."
