Clarion Gaming, producer of the ICE Totally Gaming series of trade shows, and the International Masters of Gaming Law (IMGL), the nonprofit corporation which provides a forum for the exchange of knowledge and insight to gaming law, have signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) which will see IMGL become Clarion’s global legal partner on all legal and regulatory developments.
The partnership will see both parties deploying their respective commercial and legal knowledge, expertise and marketing reach to enhance the quality of educational experiences offered to the global gaming industry.
In terms of specifics, the collaboration will see IMGL establish a high-profile presence at Clarion’s World Regulatory Briefing (WrB) event held at ICE London in February. IMGL will work alongside the team at Clarion Gaming to advise on critically important legal and regulatory content and help secure authoritative speakers at Clarion Gaming events, including at ICE North America, iGB Live! and ICE Africa, on matters of vital concern to the industry.
Reflecting on the MOU, Kate Chambers, managing director of Clarion Gaming said, “Our skill lies in our ability to develop, create and organize professional gaming events which have the right chemistry and which engage with our stakeholders throughout the world. This also entails working in collaboration with partners who are experts in their respective fields, and the International Masters of Gaming Law certainly fit into that category.
“Working in partnership with the IMGL will enhance our ability to deliver professional, informed business experiences for our stakeholders, many of whom travel vast distances to attend our events. I look forward to a productive relationship with our friends at the IMGL and helping to deliver high quality educational and learning experiences to the global industry.”
“IMGL brings the most expert legal and regulatory advisors from across the world,” added IMGL President Jamie Nettleton. “As a truly global organization of expert gambling lawyers, our partnership with Clarion ensures that together we can deploy that expertise and assist gambling industry stakeholders in enriching their sector expertise, particularly in relation to legal, regulatory and compliance at Clarion Gaming events for the benefit of their businesses for years to come. We are honored to join with Clarion Gaming in this partnership in their role as the pre-eminent organizer of gambling events globally.”
