What is ICE London?
ICE London is an annual event for all technology and gaming businesses that want to come together and showcase products and services as well as network. It’s a B2B event, so the products and services discussed are aimed toward other businesses, such as a tech company creating a product that an online casino could use. Although ICE London was set up for the gambling industry, it now accommodates all types of gaming.
The talking points of ICE London 2022
With so many exhibitions and guest speakers to look forward to, there won’t be a single main theme of the event. You’ll be able to find other businesses and information across the gaming landscape with ease. But one topic within the conference which is expected to get a lot of attention is casino affiliated markets.
Affiliate marketing remains one of the most effective forms of marketing when done correctly, and it is a big part of many online casino business models. New technologies and gaming marketing firms are expected to unveil new tricks and tips for this segment of the industry to do more. Many partnerships could materialise in the affiliate casino space over the weekend.
ICE London 2022 and the Russian Invasion
Due to the events unfolding in Ukraine, ICE London organisers have taken the step to suspend all Russian and Belarusian companies or representatives from this year’s events. So, if you were hoping to meet with one of these gaming businesses, you won’t be able to for this year at least.
