The World Casino Directory's Gaming Industry News covers land-based and online happenings in the industry. Our coverage here will inform readers about everything from employment and job fairs to major moves being anticipated by the big industry players. Reporting on sweeping regulatory changes as well as the oft-times more nuanced fluidity of case law and legal interpretations of existing laws are some of the items we cover in this section.
Industry participants will find pre-show and post-show coverage of some of the most important conferences and tradeshows in the gambling world, whether land-based or iGaming in nature or both. Thought leaders and those looking to increase their knowledge of current trends in the global gaming industry may wish to visit our Calendars of Gaming and iGaming Conferences and Seminars for important details on summits ranging from G2E (Global Gaming Expo) and ICE to roundtables focused on sportsbetting.
We cover important industry events and changes from American tribal gaming and the Caribbean to India and Macau. If it affects the industry, for professionals or players, you'll find the story here. New licenses, casino sales, M&A, and labor relations are just a few of the story leads we chase for you and report on in this section.
