Thousands of attendees are expected to check out the latest slots, table games and other gaming and hospitality innovations during G2E’s trade show this week.

G2E, also known as the Global Gaming Expo, kicked off in earnest Tuesday morning when the trade show opened and attendees streamed onto the show floor at The Venetian Expo in Las Vegas.

Gov. Steve Sisolak made remarks to attendees before the show’s opening. G2E is billed as the world’s largest gathering of the casino industry, the dominant sector of Southern Nevada’s economy.

Bill Miller, president and CEO of the sponsoring American Gaming Association also gave an opening keynote address, remarking on how resilient the casino industry has been. A complete shutdown of casinos in March 2020 transitioned to record industry revenues just 18 months letter.

G2E, which also includes keynotes, panel discussions and sessions, runs through Thursday.
