The World Poker Congress is simply not like other conferences, the web site advertizing suggests. In attendance are the decision makers from the most exciting companies in the poker arena – and they are there to do business. Online sites find casino partners in emerging territories and everyone is remarkably open to sharing industry perspective.

Among the speakers present will be David Carrion Cirsa, Spain who will talk on the 'Latin America Overview', Paul Davis of Chexx IOM, Ireland on 'paying your winners', Dawn Kirkwood of Clarion Gaming, United States will provide opening remarks and Steven Lipscomb from WPT Enterprises, United States will make keynote closing remarks.

Tamas Nador, Executive Producer, Poker Media Ltd. states "Attending and participating at the WPC has become a vital part of our business to keep on track with the international community as well as meeting the key players in the poker world. The WPC has a unique and intimate possibility to network with right people to do good business."

"It's really interesting to meet collegues from all around the globe, I believe all continents were represented. That gives you perspective." says Christer Larsson, of Pokerevent.se.

Robin LeProvost, LeProvost Consultancy reflects, "Whilst these specialty events might lack raw numbers at least everyone there is relevant, quality over quantity will always win through."
