AGA partners with Reed Exhibitions to launch AGA Smartbrief

“In the age of the 24-hour news cycle, it can be difficult for busy gaming executives to stay abreast of the hundreds of stories published about our industry every day,” said Frank J. Fahrenkopf, Jr., president and CEO of the American Gaming Association. “AGA SmartBrief delivers easy-to-read summaries of the most important news articles directly to their inboxes, saving them valuable time.”

Using proprietary technology, editors of AGA SmartBrief distill and disseminate critical gaming industry news, free of charge, to individuals working in the gaming industry on a daily basis. G2E, the leading trade event for the international gaming entertainment community, is held annually in Las Vegas and attended by more than 26,000 industry professionals from around the world.

“As an event by the industry and for the industry, G2E strives to provide gaming industry leaders with the resources they need to be successful,” said Courtney Muller, a group vice president at Reed Exhibitions, which organizes the G2E family of events. “AGA SmartBrief is an excellent example of the kinds of cutting-edge tools we offer our exhibitors and attendees to help them get and stay ahead.”

News stories highlighted in the daily AGA SmartBriefs cover a variety of topics, including efforts to expand gaming to new states; earnings reports from gaming companies; newly unveiled gaming products; news about tribal casinos; and legislative and regulatory concerns.

Each edition of AGA SmartBrief also includes links to relevant news stories and video clips, as well as viral tools that help readers share newsletter content with their gaming colleagues. In addition, AGA SmartBrief is equipped with wireless compatibility to ensure that mobile readers can access it while on the go.
