Asia, the sister event of gaming industry trade show Global Gaming Expo (G2E), has been approved by the UFI – The Global Association of the Exhibition Industry.

The credentials of G2E Asia were assessed during a thorough audit by BPA Worldwide Tradeshow Audit Service, which included the reviewing of attendance figures and other exhibition-related data.

Held annually in Macau, G2E Asia is now the only UFI-approved gaming event in the region.

Josephine Lee, senior vice president of G2E Asia at event organisers Reed Exhibitions, said: “The UFI approval is third-party quality assurance of what we have known since the start: G2E Asia is a regional powerhouse in the gaming industry, where the players, products and presentations that matter gather on an annual basis.”
