The American Gaming Association announced Monday it has completed its buyout of the World Gaming Congress & Expo from GEM Communications.
The World Gaming Congress, historically the gaming industry's largest trade show, will be folded into Global Gaming Expo (G2E), the AGA's competing trade show. G2E will be held this year at the Las Vegas Convention Center Sept. 17-19.
The AGA was formerly a partner in the World Gaming Congress, but the two sides were unable to agree to a contract renewal and split in 2000. The association founded G2E the following year with Reed Exhibition Cos.
