Clarion's Ewa Bakun to join Italian Gaming Exhibition and Conference

• Ewa Bakun will moderate a stream addressing the technological innovation and advancements in the Italian gambling industry
• She is excited to be joining her Italian colleagues on April 9-10 and help contribute to the dynamic gambling industry in the country
• ICE Barcelona 2026 is already gearing up to address many of the points raised by the Italian Gaming Exhibition and Conference

Clarion Gaming’s Director of Industry Insight and Engagement, Ewa Bakun, will be joining the Italian Gaming Exhibition and Conference as a speaker. The event, which will take place on April 9 and April 10 at the Salone delle Fontaine in Rome, will reunite the foremost industry experts who have an interest in Italy’s dynamic market, which is undergoing rapid re-regulation and can benefit from the invaluable insight of industry insiders with hands-on experience.

Bakun will moderate a stream exploring technological innovation and how the advancement of AI, VR and AR, as well as NFT, Metaverse, and cryptocurrencies, are impacting the industry and its business prospects. Bakun said that she was excited to be joining the seminal event and contributing her insight as well as helping steer the dialogue around Italian gambling. In a statement, she said:

"I am honoured to be invited to participate in the Italian Gaming Exhibition and Conference, an event whichnot only debates the industry's challenges but also aims to set out a path towards achieving a sustainable future for all sectors of the Italian industry.

The 2025 edition comes at a key time following the liberalisation of licenses, creating important new business opportunities and, as the organisers have argued, providing a springboard to create an open, responsible and sustainable industry."

Bakun spoke of Clarion Gaming’s own success in engaging with the Italian gambling industry, citing the numbers from ICE, the company’s flagship event. ICE Barcelona, she said, welcomed 1,496 visitors from Italy, as one of the highest represented nations among 163 countries of attendees.

She similarly noted that the Italian Gaming Exhibition and Conference shared many of the same values that underpinned ICE, and she was excited to work together with her Italian colleagues to address both the present-day challenges of the industry, and get an early start on ICE Barcelona 2026.
