Bélgica – A European Casino Association adia eventos importantes do setor
By Phil 20 de abril de 2021
In light of the continued uncertainty regarding international travel and the viability of in-person events due to the ongoing pandemic, the Board of the European Casino Association announces the cancellation of this year’s European Dealer Championship (Monte-Carlo, October 4 to 8) and ECA Industry Forum (Vienna, November 31 to December 3), with both events postponed until 2022.
Embora nenhuma data fixa possa ser fornecida neste momento, a ECA garante aos membros que o Campeonato Europeu de Revendedores retornará em abril/maio de 2022, seguido pelo Fórum da Indústria da ECA em setembro/outubro de 2022.
“Health and safety have always been our top priority and the continued uncertainty created by the pandemic makes the postponement of our in-person events the prudent decision. We needed to put down our foot and make this decision now considering the scale of these events and the efforts that are going into organizing and executing them”, comments ECA Chair, Per Jaldung. “While we regret the cancellations this year, we look forward to the prospect of EU-wide vaccination programmes lifting current travel restrictions to enable us to reunite with our members in 2022.”
O Secretário-Geral da ECA, Hermann Pamminger, acrescentou: “O Campeonato de Revendedores da ECA reúne os melhores concessionários de toda a Europa no espírito de uma concorrência saudável, enquanto o Fórum da Indústria é um encontro especial para as partes interessadas da indústria, fornecedores e investigadores celebrarem. a natureza colaborativa deste negócio. Acreditamos que estes eventos serão mais importantes do que nunca em 2022, à medida que a indústria se recupera da pandemia e procura enfrentar os desafios do ‘novo’ futuro.”
New dates will be communicated as soon as available. The European casino sector has been hard hit by a combination of mandatory closures and national lockdowns due to the pandemic. In 2020, European casinos were closed for an average of 136 days. To date, the majority of European casinos remain closed.
