ICE Totally Gaming 2016 is the international gaming expo that will run from February 2 to February 4 at the ExCel Center in London. ICE 2015 had an independently audited attendance of 25,497 with 133 countries represented. 2016 is expected to break this record. Every sector of land based gaming and online gaming will be represented. Obviously, every online casino player cannot attend, but everyone should keep track of the innovative ideas exhibited and discussed at ICE 2016.

One of the facets under focus is the role of women in the gaming. Not only are more women engaging in gambling, but more are getting involved in the administration. Players at Club World online casinos would know Karolina who has been nominated as the best online casino manager in the Casinomeister Awards for the last two years.

Global Gaming Women is an initiative whose objective is to support the development and success of women in the international gaming industry through education, mentorship and networking opportunities. It will further its initiative by staging the panel discussion, "Women in Gaming: State of the Industry" during ICE 2016. Virginia McDowell, President and CEO of Isle of Carpri Casinos Inc, who is also the Global Gaming Women Board Chair and President said, "We are thrilled to begin the year in such a powerful way with this panel discussion, and we invite the entire industry to join us for this important and educational event."

The panel discussion is scheduled to take place on February 3. The event is free for registered ICE participants. Speakers will include powerful female leaders from across the industry spectrum who will discuss their career trajectories and their successes and failures. They will also stress on the importance of reinvestment in rising women. The discussion will be important for women wanting to make a career in the gaming industry. Attendees will gain insight into executive leadership, understand the career stepping stones in gaming and will find motivation for their next career move. Katie Lever, Global Gaming Women Board Member, Connie Jones, AGEM Director of Responsible Gaming, Valerie Spicer, Arizona Indian Gaming Association Executive Director and Maureen Sweeny, Aristocrat Chief Commercial Officer are some of the speakers.

You will also find the more common aspects of gaming at ICE 2016. There are over 500 exhibitors of which about half will represent the online gambling sector. The conference to watch out for is Cross Platform and Multi Channel Gaming. The CEOs of some of the leading online gaming companies are on the list.
