The Asian gaming industry celebrated in style on Wednesday night with a huge turnout for the return of The Industry Party at Vista at MGM Cotai.
Almost 350 people enjoyed the lively entertainment, tasty canapes and delectable drinks while catching up with industry colleagues – many of whom they hadn’t laid eyes on in years.
Ken Jolly, the Vice President and Managing Director, Asia for Light & Wonder, said his company was proud to be a key sponsor of the event.
“We’re great supporters of the industry and the industry is good to us,” he said on the night. “We like to put back into the industry and you look at the room here tonight: there are customers, there are other vendors – the whole industry is here. It looks like a fabulous event and of course we should be involved.
“We’re well past COVID now and the show (G2E Asia) has come back to Macau. It’s like getting the old family back together with lots of people making relationships again like they did in the past.”
Carlos Tang, Business Development Director of Macau-based construction company Top Builders Group, added, “It’s a great party. It’s a bit different to what we usually participate in but I think everybody knows everybody in Macau so it’s good to catch up with old friends and meet some new people too.
“We are doing a lot of construction work here and I think gaming and construction is related in Macau, so we feel tonight is a good opportunity to come and join the party!”
