Speaking at the opening event, Kate Chambers, Managing Director of Clarion Gaming said: "We have worked closely with key industry figures to deliver a bespoke event that provides an opportunity for all sections of the business to meet, network, share best practice and see the very latest gaming innovations at first hand.
“ICE Africa brings a long overdue event for what many industry leaders believe to be one of the most important and exciting regions in world gaming. It’s fantastic to experience the level of support that’s been shown by attendees, speakers, sponsors, media partners and government bodies alike who are all committed to the creation of a business-to-business gaming event that the continent can be proud of,” Chambers added.
John Kamara, Director of Global Gaming Africa, also said: "I believe that we are currently in the eye of a beautiful storm and the ability to attract the right investment is part of the objective that we should all work together to achieve. ICE Africa is establishing itself as a place where investors come and find opportunities, where operators learn how to grow their business and where we provide an educational warehouse for the industry going forward.”
“The continent as a whole presents its own unique opportunities as well as challenges that you don’t find in Europe or America and there’s no doubt - Africa is open for business and the opportunities are huge," he concluded.
