AGE 2017 successfully kicks off in Sydney

Australasian Gaming Expo owners and operators, the Gaming Technologies Association, added to the fun by offering a trip for 2 to Las Vegas for each day of the Expo which on Tuesday was won by Mr Lee Cook, Group Gaming Operations Manager, Matthews Hotels, of Kent Town, S.A. 

The Association also presented a Best Stand award, which took the judges some time to decide. Based on a strict set of criteria, it was agreed that a number of exhibitors had excelled in terms of creative execution of brand identity and key messages; innovative and efficient use of space; simplicity of form and aesthetics; imaginative use of materials, colour and lighting; and most importantly, visitor engagement and interaction.

246 exhibition stands put in a huge effort to make the event a welcoming, entertaining and innovative exhibition showcase.

”

Of these, the judges’ compliments were extended to Scent Central, Hennessy Coffee, Next ATM and Bromic. Last year's winner Satelight, returned this year with an innovative lighting display, which also makes them worthy of a special mention. We also make a special mention of long term exhibitor Plantscaping Solutions, represented by John Dickinson.

The Best Stand award winner for 2017 is Big Screen Video, on stand 953.

This exhibitor maximised their use of the ICC’s cavernous ceiling height to bring a “wow factor” to the show, with Ross Ferrar presenting the award to Big Screen Video’s, Mr Paul Ellery.
