Delegates from 44 countries have registered to attend Juegos Miami at The Biltmore, Miami, US, from May 31 to June 2.

The event is organised by Clarion Gaming, the owners of the ICE Totally Gaming trade show in London. Its managing director, Kate Chambers, said that the delegates represented the entire Latin American and Caribbean regions.

"We have worked hard to ensure this key requirement is evident throughout the Juegos Miami experience, not least in the conference programme, which addresses the key political, economic, social and technological issues that are impacting gaming across Latin America and the Caribbean."

She added: "The majority of launch events take some time to gather momentum and engage with the market, but I am delighted to confirm that Juegos Miami has very rapidly attracted support from all sections of the gaming community, including trade associations, thought leaders and innovators, across all jurisdictions in the region."

This is supported by Dr Javier Balbuena, president of CONAJZAR, who described Juegos Miami as "a brilliant place to bring the key people together from the industry." The event is invitation-only and is limited to senior decision makers; that is, owners, directors and C-level executives from operating companies, plus government representatives and regulators from the regions concerned.
