MIGS16 gathers industry leaders

Major industry representatives confirmed their attendance at MIGS16.

Malta.- From November 7th to 9th Malta will host MIGS16, the top iGaming conference for C-Level management. The unique event will gather the world’s top management operators, service providers, regulatory bodies and legal firms at the Grand Masters Suite, Hilton Malta. During MIGS16, attendance will experience Battle of Malta Poker tournament on the eve and several other networking opportunities including the first ever iGaming Awards for employees entitled iGaming idol and the popular closing party on the final night.

The organisers have recently confirmed John Andrews, consulting editor of the Economist and author of the best-seller, “The World in Conflict”, as the keynote speaker for this year’s event.  On the day after the US presidential election, the veteran political journalist will be examining the challenges that await the new leader of the United States and the political, social and economic pressures that will test governments post-Brexit Europe to a China-dominated Asia.

Furthermore, Mark Blandford, Founder of Sportingbet plc and speaker on the panel “Century of Gaming” at MIGS last year, said: “I’m looking forward to this year’s MiGs.  I attended this seminar for the first time in 2015 and found it really useful both for networking with Malta based suppliers and also from other suppliers worldwide.”

The Malta Gaming Authority and Malta Tourism Authority have also confirmed their support towards this premium event.  Joseph Cuschieri, Executive Chairman of the MGA, recently endorsed MIGS as one of the top events he has attended in Europe in terms of quality speakers, content, as well as participants.  He said that “MIGS has been instrumental in placing Malta on the map as a destination for a quality iGaming conference. Their consistent contribution to the industry in delivering valuable content, networking opportunities through their high caliber speakers and attendees is one of the best platforms for international executives to network, learn and share relevant information and knowledge.”

The topics being debated are growing costs from regulators, taxation, virtual currencies, player reactivation, eSports, Brexit and an IMGL Master Class that will cover new and changing markets amongst others. The MIGS16 conference agenda evolves and improves every year utilising input from trusted authorities, feedback from past attendees and the global industry at large.  One of the major elements that attract delegates to MIGS is the ability of the organisers to be innovative with their content delivery and networking, whilst the event annually retains the same high calibre expertise and experience with a major part of their annual speaker line-up being different. Over 93 percent of past delegates have expressed their intention to attend the next seminar.
