l Te AGEM Memorial Awards honouring Jens Halle and Peter Mead were presented on the show floor at G2E to industry veterans Rick Meitzler and Roger Gros, respectively.

l Events in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania regarding the legislative review of approving video gaming terminals continues to change regularly. At the beginning of October there seemed to be more focus on mini casinos and truck stops as proposed locations, but a subsequent change in the focus leaves many options still open. AGEM is a member of the Pennsylvania Video Gaming Association (PaVGA) and continues to offer support for gaming expansion.
l A landmark court case in Melbourne pitting a slot player and her law firm against Aristocrat Technologies and Crown Resorts has seen both sides conclude all their evidence and the judge will rule in due course. Te outcome is being closely watched as the player is claiming one game title is deceptive and misleading despite receiving regulatory approval in markets all over the world.
l AGEM members recently approved to continue support of the European Casino Association (ECA). Tis will consist of a contribution of $15,000 to support the International Casino Conference, held during ICE, and the European Dealer Championship, where the final will take place at the beautiful newly opened Resort & Casino Maestral in the Budva region of Montenegro.
