Malta iGaming Seminar 2010 tipped to be a success

The Malta iGaming Seminar will be held on May 13-14 at the Hilton Malta, Portomaso, St Julian's.

The seminar is being organised by CSB, a company that provides corporate, trustee and licensing services; BMIT, a co-location and hosting company; The Vacancy Centre, a recruitment/HR company; Megabyte Ltd, a systems integration and IT solutions company; Green Tube, a gaming software company, together with Re/Max Malta, the real estate and relocation company.

The seminar is a perfect platform for iGaming executives from around the world to come to Malta to investigate, understand and be able to make a knowledgeable decision on whether Malta is the right jurisdiction to set up shop.

This year's event will be held over two days, providing more time for executives to network and set up important meetings with event partners and sponsors to discuss Malta in more detail.

All delegates are guaranteed to meet and listen to at least three success stories of gaming companies based in Malta.

This year, Magnus Silfverberg, chief executive officer of Betsson, will give an overview of the successes Betsson has had in Malta. From its start-up in 2001 to its move to Malta in 2006, the company has grown from strength to strength.

Michael Zammit, CEO of CSB, said: "Similar to last year, this event is expected to be a huge success. We already have a good number of foreign and local executives booked. Some are even taking advantage of the weekend and staying on for some extra days."

The event will be inaugurated by Finance Minister Tonio Fenech, while Michael Caselli, from iGaming Business, will be the moderator once again. Representatives from Malta Enterprise, the country's agency for foreign investment and industry, and the Lotteries and Gaming Authority, are also set to feature at the event as key note speakers as well as participate in the three round tables meetings.

Besides the business and networking side, where event partners will provide in-depth presentations regarding the services they provide to the gaming industry, the attendees will be hosted to a poker tournament and cocktail party on the first night and a cocktail and pool party the next day in the afternoon.

Companies interested in Malta as a gaming jurisdiction, as well as others based in Malta and looking for alternative services, are encouraged to reserve their attendance by logging in to www.maltaiga mingseminar.com. Places are limited.
