Six-time Grand Slam champion, Olympic gold medallist and Youwin brand ambassador, Boris Becker, is set to open this year's EiG to be held on October 8-10 in Barcelona.
The former sports star, now an accomplished broadcaster and businessman, will open the 12th annual edition of the i-gaming congress and expo.
Kate Chambers, portfolio director responsible for EiG said: “For over a decade EiG has been a source of inspiration for European i-gaming business and we are absolutely delighted to be able to welcome such an inspirational sportsman to open EiG 2013 with its dynamic new format, powerful content and new features.”
Chambers continued: “EiG is also about leaders and the new role Boris enjoys as Youwin.com’s brand ambassador to his continuing high profile and his success both as a respected media personality and also as an entrepreneur.”
John Faley, marketing director at Youwin.com, added: “Boris Becker is synonymous with ambition, drive, success and the champion status, and I cannot think of a better way for Youwin.com to contribute to EiG 2013 than giving our brand ambassador the opportunity to officially open the show with a bang.”
EiG 2013 will see a new format, which will include features such as specialist workshops and networking groups, EiG’s Breakfast With… sessions and EiG Power Talks.
