The 2018 edition of Asia’s largest gaming industry trade event, G2E Asia, kicks off today with a record attendance of more than 15,000 local and international visitors expected over the course of the next three days.
G2E Asia 2018 has already been confirmed as the largest ever in terms of floor space with an exhibition floor spanning 37,000 square meters – 30% more than in 2017. The show celebrates its 12th anniversary this year, playing host to more than 220 exhibitors representing 35% growth over the first edition held back in 2007.
Delivering the keynote address at the G2E Asia Conference this morning will be Melco Resorts & Entertainment Chairman and CEO Lawrence Ho, whose company operates three integrated resorts in Macau – City of Dreams, Studio City and Altira – and is actively pursuing a Japan gaming license.
As always, Inside Asian Gaming will boast a significant presence at G2E Asia with a team of 30 on the ground throughout the week.
