(PRESS RELEASE) -- Clarion, which organizes a portfolio of market leading business to business events in the international gaming industry, including ICE Totally Gaming (London), EiG (Berlin) and GiGse (San Francisco), has named Spectrum Gaming Group as Global Advisory Partner.

The strategic alliance between the two organizations will enhance the breadth and quality of their brands, which range from gaming conferences to regulatory services.

"Spectrum is a well respected, international company of gaming specialists and the ability to tap into this huge reserve of knowledge and contacts will prove invaluable.

"Gaming is a constantly changing landscape and we will be working with the team at Spectrum to help identify the most important topics, secure the most relevant opinion formers and navigate the regulatory terrain. Spectrum will also contribute to content by speaking at, moderating and chairing relevant sessions across our brands."
