Following earlier speculation that the EiG expo would be moving to a new location in 2017, the organisers of both EiG and the Berlin Affiliate Conference have confirmed that the two events will now be remaining in the German capital.

Berlin, Germany

EiG will be returning to the Arena Berlin, and will take place on from Monday, October 30, to Wednesday, November 1.

Rory Credland, Clarion Events’ director for EiG, said: “EiG brings together key decision makers from the i-gaming industry from all across Europe – and with its central location and reputation as an innovation and tech hub, Berlin is the perfect location for the 2017 event.

“We are excited to once again join forces with the team at iGaming Business to ensure that the industry benefits by having both events in the same city.”

Shona ODonnell, head of operations at iGaming Business, said: “Following such a successful 2016 event, there was no question that BAC would be returning to Berlin next year.

“Affiliates and operators alike have consistently told us that the conference is one of the highlights of the gaming calendar and we plan on making the 2017 event bigger and better than ever.

“With EiG remaining in Berlin too, we hope that the i-gaming industry can join us once again for a week in Berlin.”

The Berlin Affiliate Conference will take place on November 1-4, 2017.
