The online ticket registration facility and visa application helper for ATEI, ICE and ICEi (Earls Court, London, UK, 22-24 January 2008) has gone live. Industry buyers preparing to attend the co-located, double award winning, business-to-business events, which attracted over 25,000 visitors from 117 nations in 2007, can do so by completing the relevant registration form at atei-exhibition.com, ice-exhibition.com or icei-exhibition.com.

States of Alderney Head of E-Commerce, Robin Le Prevost, has described London’s ICEi 2008 as a place to meet “evermore diverse and increasing number of potential licensees from all corners of the globe”. States of Alderney, who have recently added their name to the growing list of companies and organizations signing up for ICEi 2008 (January 22-24), are among the UK Gambling Commission’s recent “white list”, which allows only those territories who meet a stringent set of guidelines to advertise on TV, radio and in print media, subject to UK advertising rules.

ICEi 2008 will be 40 per cent bigger than its 2007 predecessor, the biggest in the show's six-year history, and will include at least 13 first-time exhibitors, organisers Clarion Gaming have announced.

Earls Court – home of the ATEI, ICE and ICEi exhibitions (22-24 January 2008) – has gained Olympic status, as the venue is set to play a key role during the 2012 Olympics. An agreement between Earls Court & Olympia Venues and the London Organising Committee for the Olympic Games (LOCOG) will see the volleyball competition being staged at Earls Court during the London Games.
