ENADA SPRING LOOKS AT THE FUTURE OF GAMING AND AMUSEMENT

From March 15th to 17th at Fiera di Rimini the show organized by IEG and promoted by SAPAR. Attention is increasing on professional training and the innovations that are changing the venues and the concept of gaming and amusement worldwide.

Innovation and the future: these will be the two key words guiding the next edition of ENADA, being held at Fiera di Rimini from March 15th to 17th. In fact, the 29th ENADA SPRING will dedicate ample space to the innovations that are changing amusement venues worldwide, and greater commitment to professional training for those involved in the gaming and amusement world.
 
Organized by Italian Exhibition Group SpA (IEG - the company formed by the merger between Rimini Fiera and Fiera di Vicenza), promoted by SAPAR (Italy’s Association National of Public Recreational Attraction Equipment) and with the support of EUROMAT, the most important expo in Southern Europe dedicated to amusement and gaming machines (over 25,000 trade visitors attended the last edition) will be an even greater “must” for all the sector’s trade members. A fundamental opportunity for business, discussion, networking, updating and re-launch.
 
IEG president Lorenzo Cagnoni announces, “For 2017, with ENADA ACADEMY, we shall highlight a training program sure to be a great attraction for visitors, with high profile contents and wide horizons, in order to interest current trade members and those wanting to approach the sector and enter it professionally. ENADA NEXT on the other hand will be an area entirely dedicated to innovation and new amusement venues, with new products, installations, debates and presentations of international best practices.”
 
SAPAR chairman Raffaele Curcio continues, “Our commitment will continue for promoting the culture of responsible gaming and fighting every form of compulsive gaming. Ample space will be also be dedicated at the next edition to training events on responsible gaming, dedicated to all the sector’s trade members. However, as well as the cultural aspect, we must also work on technical innovation, to make the prohibition of gaming by minors even stricter and the fight against pathological phenomena stronger. It is necessary to look to the future, and ENADA SPRING will be a valuable opportunity for doing so. 2017 will have to be the year for re-launching the sector and an in-depth reform of all gaming facilities, a shake-up that finally establishes a virtuous point of balance between social protection, law and order, tax revenue and appropriate recognition for the enterprises and workers involved in the legal gaming chain.”
 
The show will present an expo showcase up to expectations, thanks to the participation of network licensees, manufacturers of components and accessories, online betting, new slot machines and i-gaming, games of skill and amusement machines, attractions for parks and kiddie rides, bowling, bingo, billiards, payment systems and services. In the spotlight, the most innovative trends for the next season, not to mention the undying love for traditional games such as pinball, table soccer and darts.
 
A unique insight on a trade chain made up of 5,000 enterprises and a workforce of 300,000, which, with a revenue of over 84 billion euros, guarantees the government tax income of 11.5 billion euros per year.”

Therefore increasingly wider horizons: a concept that is summed up well by the new ENADA SPRING visuals, designed by the Gambarini & Muti Agency. For the 2017 edition, the concept of the masks has been repeated, but duplicated in various colours, which visually interpret the sector’s various categories with a feminine smile.
 
It is worth remembering that ENADA SPRING will occupy the entire West wing of the Rimini expo centre, with the West and South entrances open – the latter is ideal for those arriving at the handy on-site railway station, on the main Milan-Bari line.
