(PRESS RELEASE) -- As part of this industry, it's Clarion's job to mirror the needs and wants of the iGaming industry, and so the events schedule is structured for 2010 to:
• Reduce the number of meetings that online gaming executives need to attend into just 7 focused events over the year, that are much larger in attendance, giving added value to those there for networking.
• Avoid placing any event in the run-up to the World Cup. We felt that, being the biggest betting frenzy…well…ever, it was probably not a good idea to distract anyone from the main event! You won't see a Clarion Gaming conference after the middle of May until all the action is over, so you can concentrate on your core business of raking in the revenue!
• We pride ourselves as being in partnership with the industry – so every event is completely content-led and quality checked by the industry itself! In practice this means you will be learning about topics picked and crafted by hundreds of industry heavy-weights so you can be confident you're hearing the topics most critical to improving your business.
• Networking will always be with decision makers given the executive level of our delegates. This is ensured through competitive pricing – allowing more investment in marketing campaigns, innovative networking events, and ensuring everyone in attendance has the ability to sign off a budget!
• Clarion also offers reduced 2010 pricing for our 2009 delegates. If you attended an event in 2009, contact our sales team (sam.barrett@clariongaming.com) to find out about the loyalty scheme we are operating in 2010, so your budget can stretch even further!
"We look forward to being your events partner of choice in 2010, helping you build important contact networks, clinch business deals, and learn from industry experts how to take advantage of opportunities and overcome challenges in such a competitive, expanding online gaming industry. I know 2010 will prove to be another successful and exciting year for everyone involved.
See you at the events!"
