Tony Amormino, CEO at Apache Nugget Corporation, highlighted the benefits of the 22,000-square-meter expo floor, noting the extensive networking opportunities: There are a lot of vendors that I wouldn’t normally be able to see, and pretty much all my afternoon was spent with people I wouldn't have had a chance to talk to before. Lee Terfloth, Chief Interactive Officer – Gaming at Delaware North, praised the event's growth and strategic direction: It’s a much better venue, and it’s gotten a lot bigger. It’s a natural progression to combine these two; we have so much to learn from each other.
