Direct Impacts&nbsp;consists of expenditures associated with organising, exhibiting, and attending within the Barcelona &#8211; Catalonia economy. The indirect or secondary impacts corresponds to the knock-on effect of the event on the Barcelona -Catalonia economy including activity generated by the suppliers and service providers that benefited from the direct impact of the event.

World-class exhibitors showcased an outstanding cross-section of global gaming innovation. The Clarion Gaming team, collaborating seamlessly with partners at Fira GranVia, demonstrated why they&rsquo;re regarded as the best in the business.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The results speak for themselves
