Balkan Entertainment & Gaming Expo 2010

For the second successive year, as an initiative of the Bulgarian Trade Association of the Manufacturers and Operators in the Gaming Industry (BTAMOGI) and under the patronage of Bulgarian State Commission on Gambling, the Balkan Entertainment and Gaming Expo and the Eastern European Gaming Summit were held on 5-7 October in Sofia. The list of exhibitors included 50 companies representing more than 15 countries including Slovenia, Czech Republic, Serbia, Russia, Canada, Dubai, Great Britain, USA, Greece and Poland. Among the exhibitors were 10 leading world companies, including Casino Technology, the largest Bulgarian based manufacturer.

BEGE warmly welcomed companies from China, Macedonia and Romania who made their debut in the Eastern European market. The number of Bulgarian exhibitors at the trade show this year also grew to 19. Once again, the aim of the organizers of the exhibition was to present visitors with the latest achievements of both world and regional leaders in the Gaming and Entertainment Industry, showcasing their innovation in all product lines: slot machines and equipment, systems and specialized installations for casinos, gaming halls, hotels, resorts and amusement centers. The organizers’ efforts, following suit with last year’s notable debut of BEGE, proved successful and despite the turbulent economic times BEGE embraced the participation of a number of smaller companies who chose to take advantage of the opportunity to enter the regional market and to present their newest products.
