Clarion Gaming, organizers of the iGB L!IVE trade show, has announced a five-year development plan centered around relocating the show from Amsterdam to London in 2025, Newswire reported October 9.
According to Portfolio Director Naomi Barton, the show hopes to within five years reach 35,000 visitors and more than 550 exhibitors and sponsors. “We will continue to invest in the show on behalf of the many thousands of international stakeholders who have all been part of the show’s unparalleled success,” Barton said.
She added, “We’re often told by stakeholders that iGB L!VE is the industry’s favorite event where crucial business deals are made. To take the show to the next level, iGB L!VE requires a home in which it can scale at pace and continue to deliver on the needs of what is one of the most dynamic business sectors.”
She noted that London is the birthplace and home of iGaming, with more than 50 of the most influential companies based there and more than 12,000 professionals in the field living there. “With the ICE and iGB Affiliate move to Barcelona in 2025, iGB L!VE has an amazing opportunity to relocate the home of iGaming right to the heart of the iGaming industry,” she said. “All the building blocks are in place for a stratospheric future for this event.”
The event’s team is working with a steering group to carry out the show’s vision and achieve the brand’s growth targets “for the benefit of its customers and the health of the industry.”
The relocation will help fuel the vision over the next five years to “take the show to a whole new level” with more than 35,000 visitors and more than 550 exhibitors and sponsors by 2028, she said. The expectation is “to exponentially increase both attendee and exhibitor / sponsor numbers in coming years.”
