The popularity of Asian gambling among both players and service providers has been further emphasised with the news that the Global Gaming Expo Asia (G2E Asia) has sold out its show floor.
An 80 per cent increase in participating exhibitors compared to last year’s Asian Gaming Expo has helped ensure a sell out, organisers have advised.
The Asian Gaming Expo was acquired by the G2E brand last summer, with the new event set to be held from June 13^th to June 14^th in Macau, which this week has revealed GDP figures which confirm its status as the most lucrative gaming region in the world.
The region has moved ahead of Las Vegas for the first time as Asian markets continue to gain in popularity.

“The tremendous interest in G2E Asia from gaming manufacturers illustrates that proactive participation in the Asian markets is increasingly becoming a business imperative,” said Frank Fahrenkopf, president and chief executive of the American Gambling Association, one of the event’s organising bodies.

“We’re very excited to have this kind of response in our first year, and we’re looking forward to a tremendous week in Macau,” he added.
