ICE Totally Gaming 2015, one of the most anticipated events in the gaming industry, will take place from February 3 to February 5. It will be held at the ExCeL London Exhibition and Convention Centre and attendees will be able to acquaint themselves with the novelties in the world of gaming and to meet industry experts.
Last year, the event attracted more than 23,000 visitors from 156 countries and a total of 515 exhibitors had the chance to introduce their products and undertakings. According to official statistics, 89% of the attendees rated the quality of the various exhibitions as EXCELLENT or GOOD, 88% described the show as EXCELLENT or GOOD, and 86% stated that it was something that everyone, who is interested in gaming matters, should see.
Given the success of ICE Totally Gaming 2014, it seems that this year’ event is to draw even greater attention. Last week, organizers announced that the pre-registration figures had marked a 25% rise as compared to 2014. The considerable increase was attributed to the fact that the IMA in Düsseldorf, an international amusement and vending machines trade fair, which was planned to take place earlier this month, was actually canceled. This means that a significant number of German businesses will attend ICE Totally Gaming.
As already mentioned, hundreds of gaming developers, analysts, and regulators will be given the opportunity to introduce new products, which aim at the improvement of the industry, and to share their opinions about the future of gaming.
Traditionally, ICE Totally Gaming covers all sectors of the industry and this year will not be an exception. Everyone who is interested in casinos, lottery, bingo, betting, online, mobile, and social gaming, as well as many other divisions of gaming will be able to visit the respective areas and to be given precious pieces of advice and information. Attendees will also be presented with excellent solutions that will most certainly help them enhance their businesses.
It is important to note that the event is intended for both newbies in the world of gaming and already established companies.
ICE Totally Gaming will also feature a number of conferences, at which executives and gaming experts will be discussing the challenges that they face on a daily basis as well as the current and the future state of the gaming industry.
This year, a special zone in the venue will be dedicated to start-up companies. Entrepreneurs will be able to introduce their ideas and products to potential investors. A total of 20 start-ups were listed for the so-called Pitch ICE. Each of them will be given 15 minutes to try to present their concepts in the best possible way and to attract the attention of gaming experts.
Chris North, CEO of GamCrowd, one of the companies which organize Pitch ICE, with Clarion Events being the other, shared with interviewers that the response to the initiative had been incredible. He also said that the participants will most certainly introduce ideas that will have the potential needed to become successful.
