Asia Gaming Brief, the organizer of regional gaming conference theย ASEAN Gaming Summit, has confirmed the much-awaited return of its yearly conference on 21-23 March, 2022, at the Shangri-La at the Fort in Manila.
The conference, known for gathering influential gaming executives from the Philippines and across Asia, has been on a two-year hiatus as Covid-19 made it impossible to safely host a physical event.ย
However over the last few months, Manila in particular, has been making enormous strides to reopen its economy. Just this week, Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) Chairman Benjamin โBenhurโ Abalos Jr. announced that Manilaโs population is expected to reach 92 percent vaccination status by December. This has givenย Asia Gaming Briefย confidence about the viability ofย its planned March dates in 2022.ย
โWeโre excited to be able to bring back theย ASEAN Gaming Summitย next year, and we are encouraged by the rapid vaccination rate in the Philippines, particularly Metro Manila,โ said Felix Ng, conference director at Asia Gaming Brief.ย
โWeโre now gearing up to bring the industry its first conference in Manila post-pandemic, aimed at reigniting growth in one of Asiaโs biggest gaming jurisdictions. We look forward to welcoming anyone looking to reconnect with the gaming industry in Asia once again.โ
The three-day event is expected to bring around 300 gaming executives from Asiaโs land-based and online gaming industry, including the regionโs regulators and government officials.ย
โOur 2022 event will be bringing back our world-class conference, with a packed agenda made up of some of the industryโs most influential players. Taking center stage this year will be our networking activities โ which are aimed at bringing business partners together, new and old,โ Felix Ng highlighted.
Theย ASEAN Gaming Summitย will be held on March 21-23, 2022 in Manila. Registrations areย now available.
