We were delighted with the outcome which has provided solid foundations which we now want to build on. We met with GB Media Director John Sullivan at the beginning of the year and were highly impressed by his company’s credentials. Their award winning magazines are the best in the business and the team has worked with a large number of international gaming brands using the influence of their titles to deliver value.

„They bring in-depth gaming knowledge, creativity, energy and a competitive edge to the work they deliver on our behalf. I am confident that with their expertise and commitment we will be able to take Macao Gaming Show to the next level. Our ‚By Asia for the World‘ advertising campaign is already appearing across international gaming media alongside media relations activities and social and digital marketing initiatives.“

John Sullivan, Director of GB Media said: „We are delighted to be selected as principal media partner for MGS 2014 and to be working alongside Marina Wong and the highly talented team which has made Macao Gaming Show such a formidable brand in such a short period of time. Our media channels will connect the campaign with an international audience of gaming professionals building on the fantastic success achieved by last year’s exhibition. ‚By Asia for the World‘ is a powerful message and one which connects with the community of buyers and influencers many of whom have already confirmed their attendance and registered for MGS 2014.“
