Explaining the background to the Hosted Meetings Programme and its objectives, Stuart Hunter, Managing Director, Clarion Gaming said: "The programme is a key component of the ICE Charter that we published summer 2021 and which was created in order to maximise the ROI exhibitors receive from being part of ICE London.

"Exhibitors provide intelligence on the type of buyers that they want to see at show and the team at Newbridge then identify the profiles of potential customers and facilitate the relevant connections ahead of establishing a bespoke at show buyers schedule and curating one-to-one hosted meetings.

"We have created a dedicated VIP Lounge at show with a concierge and I anticipate that we will be hosting upwards of 70 international buyers. I am delighted to have Newbridge on board to support us with this initiative as we look forward to finally being able to bring the industry back together in April 2022."

David Woodbridge, MD, Newbridge Events added: "It is an absolute pleasure to be working on this exciting new project with the ICE London team. ICE is the world's leading showcase for the gaming industry, and we are delighted to be involved in adding to its ongoing success".
