Kazakhstan Gaming Congress 2015 — is among the most important gambling industry events of this year. Event was held on August 20 and brought together over 130 people at common venue. Kazakhstan Gaming Congress has established itself as one of the most important platforms for industry participants from Kazakhstan, European and CIS countries.

I would like to sincerely thank the organizers of Kazakhstan Gaming Congress for holding this event! One of the key moments proved to be extremely correct choice of time and place for the congress. Due to high level of demand for gambling and betting services from the local population, the Republic of Kazakhstan is already a good market and it has the potential for further development,

Participants of specialized conference were experts of leading companies and investors who consider gambling a good area for investment.

The event took two days. The first was dedicated to business program. There participants discussed opportunities and tools for gambling business, necessary changes in legislation and other matters.

It is very useful event for both foreign and local companies. In Kazakhstan, there were no such events before and of course it is worth holding such events in the coming years, especially given the constant changes and news in the gambling business,

After that conference participants discussed importance of unification of all casino aspects into a single systems and ways to create online casino without loss. Several reports were dedicated to bookmaking business. At the end of the day Mindaugas Stanelis performed his report and he spoke about innovation in betting games.

There was a lively atmosphere in demo zone, participants were actively and effectively communicating with each other.

Business tour

The next day there was business tour over three leading casinos of Kapchagay city and participants enjoyed very warm welcome in each of them.

On the way from Almaty to Kapchagai guide told interesting facts about the history of the region and about traditions of Kazakhstan.

Participants of business travel saw not only gambling halls, but also visited hotel rooms, spa resorts that make players stay at the casino even more comfortable and interesting. Casino managers have received a lot of questions from business tour participants and a lot of useful business contacts were established.

The event was organized at high level; it was attended by key decision makers. I really liked the second day when business tour over local casinos was organized,
