Ep 119: US economy feels $329bn gaming boost
This week, the American Gaming Association has been at the centre of industry attention as it hosted G2E in Las Vegas. As around 25,000 descended upon the Venetian, the AGA marked the occasion by revealing the economic impact of the gaming industry throughout 2022.
Headline figures show that the US industry is worth around $329bn to the national economy, and is one of the most crucial industries in the country.
But what does this tell us about the state of US gaming after the rollout of regulated sports betting and igaming? And could this influence a wave of igaming legislation? That’s what SBC Americas Senior Journalist Charlie Horner and CasinoBeats Editor Craig Davies chat about on today’s episode of iGaming Daily, sponsored by SBC Summit Latinoamerica.
Later on in the show, Jessica Welman and Lucia Mourino join all the way from Las Vegas and the two digest what they have experienced at G23 2023.
